Comparative Pharmacokinetics and Safety of 3 Different Formulations of TNX-102 2.8 mg SL Tablets and Cyclobenzaprine 5 mg Oral Tablet in Healthy Adults

A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, Parallel-Design Study Of The Comparative Pharmacokinetics And Safety Of TNX-102 2.8 mg SL Tablets (With Potassium Phosphate) At 2.8 mg, TNX-102-B 2.8 mg SL Tablets (With Sodium Phosphate) At 2.8 mg, TNX-102-C 2.8 mg SL Tablets (With Trisodium Citrate) At 2.8 mg, And Cyclobenzaprine 5 mg Oral Tablets In Healthy Adults

Very low dose (VLD) cyclobenzaprine at bedtime has shown promise as a treatment for fibromyalgia, but the chemistry of cyclobenzaprine requires new formulation technology for bedtime use. The present trial is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of 3 different formulations of TNX-102 2.8 mg SL Tablets (a new formulation of cyclobenzaprine designed to result in increased dosage precision and decreased potential for morning grogginess) and to compare the bio-availability of 3 different formulations of TNX-102 2.8 mg SL Tablets (TNX-102 with potassium phosphate, TNX-102-B with sodium phosphate, and TNX-102-C with trisodium citrate) to that of cyclobenzaprine (5 mg tablets).
