Brief Summary

Budesonide is a well-known and well-characterised locally acting glucocorticosteroid with comparable efficacy to that of conventional glucocorticosteroids, but with fewer systemic side effects due to its low bioavailability following oral administration. There are no benefits for subjects participating in this pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and safety study. This is an open-label study to investigate the PK profile and safety of single oral dose of budesonide prolonged release tablets (9 mg, Cortiment® MMX \[multi-matrix system\]) in healthy subjects in Indian population. Two study visits are planned: One out-patient visit (screening) and one residential session consisting of three consecutive nights (admission to the clinical investigation unit at least 12 hours before dosing and discharge approximately 60 hours after dosing). End-of-study assessments will be performed before discharge from the clinical investigation unit in the single dosing period. Subjects should be in the fasted state for at least 10 hours pre-dose. Number of subjects planned in total in the study are 24 men and women, with a minimum requirement of 7 women. The safety assessments comprise of adverse events (AEs), vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) and clinical laboratory variables. Adverse events will be collected throughout the study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (15)

• Pharmacokinetics: Maximum plasma concentration observed (Cmax)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Pharmacokinetic lag time (Tlag)

  Tlag is defined as the time of observation prior to the first observation with a measurable (non-zero) concentration.

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Time of maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero up to time t (AUCt)

  AUCt is defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero up to time t, where t is the last time point at which the concentration is above the lower limit of quantification (time of last measurable \[non-zero\] concentration \[tlast\]).

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve to infinity (AUCinf)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: %Extrap AUC

  %Extrap AUC is defined as the percentage of AUC that is due to extrapolation from the last measurable concentration.

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Terminal half-life (t1/2)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Terminal elimination rate constant (λz)

  λz is defined as the first-order rate constant associated with terminal (log-linear) portion of the plasma concentration-time curve estimated via linear regression of the time versus log concentration.

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Apparent total systemic clearance (CL/F)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Apparent volume of distribution associated with the terminal phase (VZ/F)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Pharmacokinetics: Mean residence time (MRT)

  Up to 60 hours post-dose

• Number of subjects with adverse events (AEs) and type of adverse events

  An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject taking part in a clinical study. Number of subjects with any AE (serious or non-serious) are presented.

  From screening (Day-28 to Day -1) up to the end-of-study (Day 3)

• Number of subjects with abnormal laboratory parameters

  Number of subjects with abnormal findings in laboratory parameters (biochemistry, hematology, and urine analysis) will be presented.

  From screening (Day-28 to Day -1) up to the end-of-study (Day 3)

• Number of subjects with abnormal vital signs

  Number of subjects with abnormal findings in vital signs will be presented.

  From screening (Day-28 to Day -1) up to the end-of-study (Day 3)

• Number of subjects with abnormal changes in ECG

  Number of subjects with abnormal findings in ECG will be presented.

  From screening (Day-28 to Day -1) up to the end-of-study (Day 3)

• Negative test result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (I and II) antibody.
• Healthy according to medical history (including surgical history), physical examination, 12-lead ECG, chest X-ray recordings (postero-anterior view), vital sign (sitting blood pressure, pulse rate and body temperature), and laboratory profile of blood and urine at screening.
• Negative serum pregnancy test (for females) at screening and on Day -1.
