The cap-snatching mechanism of influenza virus mRNA transcription is strongly suppressed by TG-1000, a prodrug rapidly metabolized into TG-0527, is a potent cap-dependent nucleic acid endonuclease inhibitor. Herein, we aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of TG-1000 in healthy participants and the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics and safety of TG-1000. The study was divided into 2 parts: Part A [Single Ascending-Dose (SAD) study, 10-160 mg] and Part B [Food-Effect (FE) study, 40 mg] were launched sequentially.

Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a global health issue owing to its large disease population and high morbidity. We previously reported that the improvement in oxidative stress (OS) using pure total flavonoids from citrus (PTFC), flavonoids isolated from the peel of Citrus changshan-huyou Y.B.

We compared newly developed delayed-release oral tablets (test) of 30-mg nifedipine (NFP) with its marketed counterpart (30 mg; reference) in healthy adult Chinese volunteers to assess the former's bioequivalence. This was a randomized, open-label, four-period, crossover trial study including fasting and fed trials. The participants were randomly administered test or reference formulations (1:1 ratio) throughout each period, with a 7-day washout period.

Background: Among primary brain tumors, gliomas are associated with a poor prognosis and a median survival that varies depending on the tumor grade and subtype. As the most malignant form of glioma, glioblastoma (GBM) constitutes a significant health concern. Alteration in granulin(GRN) has been proved to be accountable for several diseases.

The present study compares the pharmacokinetics of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium suspension (200 mg/28.5 mg) during fasting and postprandial conditions, and the sample adds a stabilizer study. Two randomized, crossover trials were conducted in an open-label, single-center study (a fasting trial and a postprandial trial).

This study was designed to evaluate the bioequivalence of the newly developed delayed-release oral suspension (test) 40 mg esomeprazole magnesium compared to its marketed counterpart (40 mg; reference) in healthy adult Chinese subjects. We conducted randomized, open-label, two-period, single-dose, two-way crossover trials over a 7-day washout period, comprising a fasting trial and a fed trial. The subjects were administered the test or reference products in a 1:1 ratio at random throughout each period.

We designed a study to compare the newly developed 5-mg flunarizine hydrochloride capsules (test) to that of its marketed counterpart (5-mg; reference) among healthy adult Chinese volunteers. We performed an open-label, single-center study that consisted of 2 randomized, crossover trials, including a fasting trial and a fed trial. In each part of the study, the subjects were randomly assigned to either receive the test or reference products (5-mg flunarizine) in a 1:1 ratio.

This study aimed to develop an LC-MS/MS method for determining sildenafil and its metabolites N-desmethylsildenafil and N1,N4-desmethylsildenafil in human plasma and applying it to a pharmacokinetic study of sildenafil in healthy volunteers. Sildenafil-d8 was used as the internal standard. Plasma samples were pretreated via protein precipitation with acetonitrile.

The aim of this study was to explore the bioequivalence of miglitol based on pharmacodynamic properties. The study was performed as a single-dose, randomized, open-label, 3-period, 3-way crossover trial over a 7-day washout period. Forty-eight subjects were randomly assigned into 3 groups: (1) miglitol test formulation/sucrose coadministration, (2) miglitol reference formulation/sucrose coadministration, and (3) sucrose administration alone.

Objective: To explore a method for evaluating the bioequivalence of acarbose based on pharmacodynamic parameters using a single-dose, randomized-sequence, three-way crossover study of acarbose test (T) and reference (R) formulations.

Methods: Baseline-adjusted, pre-dose value deduction, and direct comparison methods were used to evaluate the geometric T/R ratios and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of the ln-transformed pharmacodynamic parameters to identify the most suitable evaluation system. Twelve participants were randomly divided into three groups to receive treatment in the following sequences: TRR, RTR, and RRT, each including a 7-day washout period between treatment periods.

In this study, a direct chemiluminescent immunoassay for the determination of human serum insulin levels using the ADVIA Centaur® XP system was validated. Dilution recovery, linearity, precision, sensitivity, between analyzer variation, reference interval and stability were analyzed. The linear range of the insulin assay was from 0.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two formulations of atorvastatin using the reference-scaled average bioequivalence (RSABE) method and to study the pharmacokinetics of atorvastatin in healthy Chinese subjects under fed conditions.

Materials And Methods: A single-dose, randomized, open-label, four-way crossover study was conducted in healthy Chinese subjects after informed consent was obtained. Healthy subjects were randomly assigned to receive 20 mg of either the test or reference formulation, following a 7-day washout period.

Objective: The present study was designed to evaluate the bioequivalence of a newly developed sildenafil citrate tablet 50 mg (Jinge, Test) and a marketed counterpart (Viagra, 100 mg, Reference) in healthy adult male Chinese volunteers.

Methods: This single-dose, randomized, open-label, four-period, and two-treatment self-crossover study included two parts: fasting and postprandial studies. In each part of the study, the subjects were randomly assigned to receive test or reference products (100 mg sildenafil) in a 1 : 1 ratio, and then received the alternative products, following a 1-week washout period.
