:

Dolutegravir Dispersible Tablet 5 mg

Lot No: N/AV

Mfg. Date: N/AV

Exp. Date: N/AV

Manufactured by: GSK, Priory Street, Ware, Hertfordshire, SG12 0DJ

Dose: 2 Dispersible Tablets

Mode of administration: The dispersible tablet will be dispersed in 50 mL of water and will be administered to the subjects, followed by rinsing of the administration device thrice with an additional 190 mL of water and will be administered to the subjects.

Note: Test and Reference tablets will be dispersed one minute prior to dosing in 50 mL of drinking water. Allow the tablets to disintegrate and stir gently and keep ready solution for dosing.

 Dietary Plan:

Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, subjects will start the recommended high fat, high calorie, non-vegetarian breakfast (comprising of 800 to 1000 kilocalories), 30 minutes prior to administration of the investigational product. Study subjects will eat this meal in 30 minutes or less. Fasting will continue for four hours post-dose, then meals will be provided at 5.00, 9.00 and 13.00 hours post dose on dosing day (day 1) and 24.50, 28.00, 32.00 and 37.00 hours post dose on day 2 during both the periods

 Study Restriction:

Drinking water will be disallowed for one hour pre-dose and one hour post-dose. Subsequently, drinking water will be provided ad libitum. Subjects will be dosed while in upright sitting posture and will be instructed to remain seated or be ambulatory (avoiding any strenuous activity) for first two hours following the investigational product administration (except during recording of vitals and blood collection time point).

 Collection Schedules:

Blood samples (1 ´ 5 mL) will be collected in 5 mL blood collection tube containing K2EDTA as anticoagulant during each period. The venous blood samples will be withdrawn pre-dose and at 0.50, 1.00, 1.33, 1.67, 2.00, 2.33, 2.67, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 6.00, 7.00, 8.00, 10.00, 14.00, 18.00, 24.00, 36.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours post-dose (Time points being relative to the investigational product dosing).  

During each ambulatory visit blood sample will be collected -1.00 hour to + 2.00 hours of the scheduled time.

During check out of period I, 6 mL blood will be collected in plain tubes for liver function test (SGPT, SGOT and GGT).

Blood Loss:

For each subject, the total number of blood draws will be 46 (23 per period). The total volume of blood withdrawn will not exceed 272 mL (including 13 mL for safety assessment, 6 mL blood for liver function test (SGPT, SGOT and GGT) and 23 mL discarded normal saline blood).

 Handling of Blood Samples:   

The blood samples collected at each time point will be centrifuged between 4±2 ºC (short term excursion permitted up to 10°C) and at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes to separate plasma. [For ambulatory samples, the samples collected till the scheduled time of last subject will be centrifuged together and the samples collected later will be centrifuged separately according to their collection time]. Blood samples will be centrifuged within 30 minutes after collection of last blood sample. The separated plasma will be transferred in prelabelled polypropylene tubes during each period. These tubes will be labelled with study number, period number, subject number, sample number, time point (hrs) and aliquot number.

These tubes will then be transferred to a deep freezer for storage.

Special condition:

·         During check out of period I at 48.00 hours liver function test (SGPT, SGOT and GGT) will be carried out. If any clinically significant liver chemistry elevations are observed, subject will be withdrawn from study.

·         For post study safety assessment

o        In the event of a suspected drug induced liver injury, or other clinically significant liver chemistry elevations, dolutegravir should be stopped and subjects should not be rechallenged with a dolutegravir-containing product due to the risk of a recurrent reaction.

§         Provision shall be made in the volunteer database to avoid such subjects to get enrolled in dolutegravir-containing product.

 

Safety Assessment:                 

In each period, subject questionnaire and vital signs (Blood Pressure, Temperature and Pulse Rate) will be done at the time of check-in, pre-dose and at 3.00, 6.00, 10.00, 26.00, 35.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours post-dose (Time points being relative to the investigational product dosing).

Note: subject will be kept in supine position for at least 5 minutes before start of Blood Pressure recording on each time point.

During check out of period I at 48.00 hours liver function test (SGPT, SGOT and GGT) will be carried out. If any clinically significant liver chemistry elevations are observed, subject will be withdrawn from study.

If any adverse events are observed by either clinical staff or reported by subjects at times other than scheduled times will be recorded.


In each period, the breath of the subject will be checked to see whether they have consumed alcohol or not at the time of check-in and during each ambulatory visit of the study using breath alcohol analyzer. (Note: If subjects found breath alcohol test positive during ambulatory visit, further blood sample will not be taken for the respective period but subject questionnaire and vital signs will be taken).

Medical examination, ECG and clinical laboratory tests will be performed to cater to the post-study safety assessments after the last ambulatory blood sample collection of period II.

Medical examination will be carried out during check-in, check-out and at 72.00 hrs ambulatory visit of each period of the study and whenever attending medical officer thinks necessary.

Urine test for drugs of abuse will be carried out at the time of check-in of both the study periods.

 Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies:

Risk evaluated:

The study Investigational product can bring out various adverse effects.

Mitigation strategies:

·         Ambulance will be made available before start of study.

·         All medical staff including nurses and doctors will be informed to be available at clinical site.

·         ICU will be checked for availability of all emergency medicines and other devices will be checked for proper functioning

·         Toxicity Management

In the event of a discontinuation of dolutegravir for suspected drug induced liver injury, other clinically significant liver chemistry elevations, severe skin reaction or hypersensitivity reaction, subjects should not be rechallenged with a dolutegravir-containing product due to the risk of a recurrent reaction. These subjects should be withdrawn from study. Further details on this are provided in Appendix III.

 Clinical Residency:                 

Subject will be admitted and housed in the facility sufficient time before to maintain 10 hours fasting condition before the administration of dose and until 48 hours post-dose, during each period of the study. The subjects will visit the centre for ambulatory blood sample collection at 72.00 hours post dose.

 Bioanalytical Method:

Dolutegravir will be estimated in plasma using validated LC-MS/MS method.

 Pharmacokinetic Parameters:

1) Primary parameters                      : Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-Â¥.

2) Secondary parameters                  : T1/2, Kel, Tmax, npoints, Ke_first and Ke_last.

All the above parameters will be calculated using SAS®.

Statistical Analysis:                                                                 

Summary statistics, ANOVA, intra-subject variability and 90% confidence interval will be calculated using SAS®. Linear & semi log graphs will be plot using SAS®.

 Criteria for Bioequivalence:   

The 90% confidence interval for Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-¥.of Dolutegravir will form the basis for concluding the bioequivalence of Dolutegravir sodium in product R and T. If the 90% confidence intervals are entirely included in the range of 80.00 – 125.00% for Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-¥.of Dolutegravir log-transformed then the treatments will be claimed to be bioequivalent.
