Relative bioavailability of sorafenib tablet for oral suspension

Trial purpose

The primary objective of the study is to
•   Investigate the relative bioavailability of sorafenib as 400 mg (4 x 100 mg) tablet for oral suspension formulation in comparison to 400 mg (2 x 200 mg) marketed tablet formulation.
The secondary objectives of this study are to
•   Evaluate the dose proportionality in sorafenib pharmacokinetics for sorafenib tablet for oral suspension formulation after administration of 200 mg (2 x 100 mg) and 400 mg (4 x 100 mg) dose of sorafenib in fasted state
•   Evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of the tablet for oral suspension formulation after administration of a single dose of 400 mg sorafenib (4 x 100mg)
•   Evaluate the taste and palatability of sorafenib (both formulations)
•   Assess the safety and tolerability of sorafenib tablet for oral suspension in healthy male subjects

Secondary Outcome

  • Maximum Observed Drug Concentration After Single Dose Administration Divided by Dose (Cmax/D) of Sorafenib in Plasma
    Maximum observed drug concentration after single dose administration divided by dose of sorafenib in plasma was measured. Geometric mean and percentage geometric coefficient of variation (%CV) were reported.
