The purpose of this research study is to compare the bioavailability and adhesion of a generic Selegiline transdermal system (TDS) against the marketed comparator (EMSAM®) in healthy volunteers. Systemic and local safety and tolerability will be also observed and evaluated.
This is a single-dose, single-center, open-label, randomized crossover study (2 treatments, 2 periods and 4 sequences) of a generic test formulation of Selegiline TDS 6 mg/24 hours with the comparator EMSAM® TDS 6 mg/24 hours, with at least 56 days washout period, recruiting around 92 healthy male and female subjects.
For each study period, subjects will be admitted and confined in the clinical study site the night before the study day from at least 10 hours before dosing and they will be discharged once all PK, safety and tolerability are completed at 72 hours after dosing. Subjects will be required to return for subsequent PK, safety and tolerability at 84-hours post-dosing. The clinic will follow up by telephone 7 ± 3 days after subject completion of the study.
Trained study staff will also examine the patch application sites at scheduled time points and will score any skin reactions using standardized assessment scales. In addition, photographs of the patch application site will be taken to document adhesion status while the patch is being worn.
PK blood samples will be collected before dosing and at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 27, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 60, 72 and 84 hours after dosing.
Furthermore, the overall safety of the test product will be compared with that of the comparator product by monitoring and recording any adverse events, side effects, or discomfort experienced by subjects during the study.

| Bioequivalence between test formulation of Selegiline TDS and EMSAM® TDS | Bioequivalence between the test formulation of the Corium TDS, Selegiline Transdermal System, 6 mg/24 hours and the comparator, EMSAM®, 6 mg/24 hours will be assessed from pharmacokinetic sampling up to 84 hours following patch administration. | 84 hours following administration of Selegiline TDS and EMSAM® TDS |
| Assessment of patch adhesion | The primary endpoint of adhesion will be the Mean Adhesion Score (MAS) during the 24-hour application period. For the calculation of MAS, the highest adhesion score (representing the greatest degree of detachment) assessed at any time point will be used for subsequent time points until a higher score is assessed (Highest Observation Carried Forward [HOCF]). MAS for a specific subject and patch type will be derived from individual adhesion scores at each assessment time point averaged across all the equally spaced time points (except the baseline or time 0). | 24 hours following administration of Selegiline TDS and EMSAM® TDS |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Safety and tolerability assessments | Evaluation of safety and tolerability of the Selegiline TDS and EMSAM® TDS. Study staff will monitor adverse events and patch tolerability during this period. | From study enrollment through all study periods, up to 67 days. |
