Trial Outcomes & Findings for To Assess the Bioequivalence of the 4mg Prototype Mini Nicotine Lozenge to the Reference Product (Nicorette) in Healthy Smokers (NCT NCT03543137)

NCT ID: NCT03543137

Last Updated: 2019-12-04

Results Overview

Bioequivalence of prototype mini lozenges with nicorette mini lozenge was assessed by measuring AUC(0-t), where t= time of the last measurable plasma concentration. AUC(0-t) was calculated using the linear trapezoidal with linear interpolation method. A linear mixed-effects model was fit to the natural log (ln)-transformed PK variable (AUC0-t), as the dependent variable, and treatment, period, and sequence as fixed effects. Participant nested within sequence was a random effect. The treatment difference and its 90% CI were exponentiated to obtain the geometric mean ratios (GMR) between the test and reference products and its 90% CI. Geometric Coefficient of variation was provided as percentage.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at single center in United States. A total of 61 participants were screened, of whom 37 were randomized for treatment and 24 were screen failures.

Participants received treatment in one of the two sequences; treatment A (Prototype Mini Lozenge: Reference drug) followed by treatment B (Nicorette Mini lozenge: Investigational drug) or vice versa in each of the study period 1 and 2.

Prototype Mini Lozenges
n=36 participants at risk
Participants randomized to receive a single dose of Treatment A: 4 mg of Prototype Mini Lozenge administered orally in either Treatment Period 1 (on Day 1) or Treatment Period 2 (Day 5 to 7). All these doses were administered after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours in each period. Participants were confined in the study facility for approximately 60 hours during each treatment period (for 36 hours predose and for 24 hours postdose) with abstinence from smoking during which they were subjected to random measurements of expired CO to confirm abstinence (CO levels must have been \<= 10 ppm throughout the treatment period).
Nicorette Mini Lozenges
n=35 participants at risk
Participants randomized to receive a single dose of Treatment B: 4 mg of Nicorette Mini lozenge administered orally in either Treatment Period 1 (on Day 5 to 7) or Treatment Period 2 (Day 1). All these doses were administered after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours in each period. Participants were confined in the study facility for approximately 60 hours during each treatment period (for 36 hours predose and for 24 hours postdose) with abstinence from smoking during which they were subjected to random measurements of expired CO to confirm abstinence (CO levels must have been \<= 10 ppm throughout the treatment period).
All Treatment Combined
n=37 participants at risk
All randomized participants received either a single dose of TreatmentA:4mg of Prototype Mini Lozenge administered orally on Day0 in Treatment Period1 followed by TreatmentB:4mg of Nicorette Mini lozenge administered orally on any one day from Day 5-Day 7(depending upon washout period) in Treatment Period2 or vice versa. Washout period was of at least 5days to maximum of 7days between two treatment periods. All these doses were administered after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours in each period. Participants were confined in the study facility for approximately 60 hours during each treatment period (for 36 hours predose and for 24 hours postdose) with abstinence from smoking during which they were subjected to random measurements of expired CO to confirm abstinence (CO levels must have been \<=10 ppm throughout the treatment period).
