Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Comparative randomized, single dose, two-way crossover open-label study to determine the bioequivalence of Empagliflozin \& Metformin HCL from Empagliform 12.5/1000 mg F.C.T (Hikma Pharma, Egypt) and Synjardy 12.5/1000 mg F.C.T (Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH, Germany)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Healthy volunteers, 18-55 years of age, selected from the Egyptian population fulfilling the selection criteria. 24 subjects will participate in the study. All dosed subject samples will be analyzed and their data will be included in the final study report.

Primary Pharmacokinetic Parameters: Cmax, AUC0→t and AUC0→∞ Secondary Pharmacokinetic Parameters: Ke, tmax and t1/2e. ANOVA using 5% significance level for transformed (with the 90% confidence intervals) and untransformed data of Cmax, AUC0→t and AUC0→∞ and for untransformed data of Ke, tmax and t1/2e.

The confidence intervals of logarithmically transformed Test/Reference ratios for Cmax, AUC0→t and AUC0→∞ to be within 80.00-125.00%.

A comprehensive final report will be issued upon the completion of the study.
