Brief Summary  

This is a multicentre, randomized, double blind, two-period, two-treatment, two-way crossover, bioequivalence study comparing Capecitabine Tablets USP 500 mg (Manufactured by:  Intas Pharmaceuticals limited, India) to the reference listed drug Xeloda®   (capecitabine) Tablets 500 mg (Distributed by:  Hoffmann-La Roche Limited., Mississauga ON L5N 6L7, Canada) in Metastatic Breast Cancer or Colorectal Cancer patients under fed condition

XELODA® (Capecitabine) is a fluoropyrimidine carbamate with antineoplastic activity. It is an orally administered systemic prodrug of 5’-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5’-DFUR) which is converted to 5-fluorouracil. The chemical name for Capecitabine is 5’-deoxy-5-fluoro-N-[(pentyloxy) carbonyl]-cytidine.

Capecitabine is a cytotoxic drug. It would be unethical to do this study on healthy volunteers. Therefore the bioequivalence study is proposed to be carried out on patients of Metastatic Breast Cancer or Colorectal cancer, who in the opinion of their treating physicians are candidates for Capecitabine therapy. Moreover, this is also in agreement with the current draft guidance on Capecitabine by OGD, USFDA.

 

The recommended dose of XELODA® is 1250 mg/m2 administered orally twice daily (morning and evening; equivalent to 2500 mg/m2 total daily dose) for 2 weeks followed by a 1-week rest period given as 3 week cycles. The dose of Capecitabine can be reduced in case of toxicity as per the Prescribing information of XELODA®.

 

The elimination half-life of Capecitabine is about ¾ of an hour.

 

In current study, Test and Reference formulation of Capecitabine Tablets USP 500 mg will be administered as a single morning dose as multiples of 500 mg on Day 1 and Day 2 as per randomization schedule. The evening dose on day 1 and day 2 will be locally approved or marketed  capecitabineTablets 500 mg which will be given at least 11 hours post morning dose.  Locally approved or marketed Capecitabine will also be provided for the remainder treatment cycle/s (including the 1st cycle) as compassionate medication.

P.S.: If the patient screen fails after 1st cycle of compassionate medication, then he/she would not be eligible for compassionate medications of the remaining cycles.

 

Primary Objective:

 

To characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of the sponsor’s test formulation [Capecitabine Tablets USP 500 mg (Manufactured by: Intas Pharmaceuticals limited, India)] relative to that of reference formulation [Xeloda® (capecitabine) Tablets 500 mg (Distributed by:  Hoffmann-La Roche Limited., Mississauga ON L5N 6L7, Canada)] in patients of Metastatic Breast Cancer or Colorectal Cancer under fed condition and to assess the bioequivalence.

 

Secondary Objective:

     

To monitor the safety of the patients, who are exposed to the Investigational Medicinal Product
