Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of the Bioequivalence of 70 mg Alendronate and 70 mg Alendronate in Combination With 2800 IU Vitamin D (NCT NCT00806416)

NCT ID: NCT00806416

Last Updated: 2022-02-08

Results Overview

Urinary excretion of alendronate was determined over a 36-hour period following single-dose administration of a 70 mg alendronate/2800-IU vitamin D3 combination tablet or 70 mg alendronate alone tablet. Urine for each treatment period was collected at -2 to 0 hours predose, 0 to 8, 8 to 24, and 24 to 36 hours postdose.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: On Day 1 across the 36-hour urinary collection period (Periods 1 and 2).

Population: Two hundred-seven (207) subjects (excluding 7 that were enrolled but did not complete both study periods) were included in the statistical analysis.

Urinary excretion of alendronate was determined over a 36-hour period following single-dose administration of a 70 mg alendronate/2800-IU vitamin D3 combination tablet or 70 mg alendronate alone tablet. Urine for each treatment period was collected at -2 to 0 hours predose, 0 to 8, 8 to 24, and 24 to 36 hours postdose.

Timeframe: On Day 1 across the 120-hour plasma collection period (Periods 1 and 2).

Population: Twenty-eight (28) subjects (excluding 2 that were enrolled but did not complete both study periods) were included in the statistical analysis.

Serum vitamin D3 pharmacokinetic parameter AUC0-120 hr (area under the serum concentration-time curve) after treatment on Day 1was calculated following single-dose administration of a 70 mg alendronate/2800-IU vitamin D3 combination tablet or 2800-IU vitamin D3 tablet. Serum for each treatment period was collected at -24, -18, -12, -6, and 0 hours predose, and 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours postdose.
