Partially Replicate Bioequivalence Study of Quetiapine 25 mg in Healthy Volunteers Under Fasting Condition

A Randomized, Single-dose, Partial Replicate, Three-phase, Three-sequence, Open-label, Bioequivalence Study Comparing Quetiapine 25 mg in Different Products After Oral Administration to Healthy Adult Subjects Under Fasting Conditions

The current study is conducted to evaluate and compare the relative bioavailability for Quetiapine in two different products containing 25 mg Quetiapine after a single oral dose administration under fasting conditions.

A randomized, single-dose, partial replicate, three-phase, three-sequence, bioequivalence study of the two study products. Blood samples were collected at different time intervals and stored at -70⁰C freezer. Quetiapine plasma concentrations were analyzed using a validated LC-MS-MS method then pharmacokinetics and statistical analysis were performed on the concentrations obtained using Phoenix WinNonlin® software.
