Body Mass Index (BMI): 18.5-30 kg/m2 inclusive 4. Vital signs: systolic blood pressure (SBP) 100-139 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) 50-89 mmHg, heart rate (HR) 50-90 bpm, measured after 5 min at rest in the sitting position 5. Full comprehension: ability to comprehend the full nature and purpose of the study, including possible risks and side effects; ability to co-operate with the investigator and to comply with the requirements of the entire study 6. Contraception and fertility (females only): females of child-bearing potential must be using at least one of the following reliable methods of contraception: 6.1. Hormonal oral, implantable, transdermal, or injectable contraceptives for at least 2 months before the screening visit 6.2. A non-hormonal intrauterine device or female condom with spermicide or contraceptive sponge with spermicide or diaphragm with spermicide or cervical cap with spermicide for at least 2 months before the screening visit 6.3. A male sexual partner who agreed to use a male condom with spermicide 6.4. A sterile sexual partner Female participants of non-child-bearing potential or in post-menopausal status for at least 1 year are admitted. For all female subjects, pregnancy test result had to be negative at screening and at each scheduled evaluation.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Electrocardiogram (12-leads, supine position): clinically significant abnormalities 2. Physical findings: clinically significant abnormal physical findings which could interfere with the objectives of the study 3. Laboratory analyses: clinically significant abnormal laboratory values indicative of physical illness 4. Allergy: ascertained or presumptive hypersensitivity to the active principle and/or formulations' ingredients; history of anaphylaxis to drugs or allergic reactions in general, which the investigator considered could affect the outcome of the study 5. Diseases: significant history of renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, respiratory, skin, haematological, endocrine or neurological diseases that could interfere with the aim of the study 6.

| Safety and general tolerability of the IMP were based on the following assessments: Record of adverse events Adverse events (AEs) were assessed throughout the study. Vital signs Subjects’ blood pressure and heart rate were measured by the investigator or his deputy after 5 min at rest in the sitting position at screening, on days 1-2 at pre-dose and 24 h post-application, and in case of ETV. The vital signs measurement at 24 h post-dose was considered as the final assessment. Electrocardiograms A 12-lead resting ECG was performed in supine position at screening and interpreted by the investigator. Physical examination and body weight A physical examination was performed at screening .Body weight, height and body mass index (BMI) were recorded at screening only. Subjects were weighed (kg) lightly clothed without shoes. BMI was calculated as weight [kg] / (height [m] squared). Laboratory analysis 1. Routine haematology, blood chemistry and urinalysis laboratory tests were performed, under fasting conditions, at screening. 2. Haematology: leukocytes and leukocyte differential count (percentage and absolute values), erythrocytes, haemoglobin (conv. units), haemoglobin (IS units), haematocrit, MCV, MCH, MCHC, thrombocytes. Blood Chemistry: 1. Electrolytes: sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, inorganic phosphorus 2. Enzymes: alkaline phosphatase, ?-GT, AST, ALT 3. Substrates/metabolites: total bilirubin, creatinine, fasting glucose, urea, uric acid, total cholesterol, triglycerides Proteins: total proteins Serum pregnancy test (women only, at screening) Urine analysis: 1. Urine chemical analysis (stick): pH, specific weight, appearance, colour, nitrites, proteins, glucose, urobilinogen, bilirubin, ketones, haematic pigments, leukocytes 2. Urine sediment (analysis performed only if positive): leukocytes, erythrocytes, flat cells, round cells, crystals, cylinders, mucus, bacteria 3. Urine pregnancy test (women only, on day -1). 4. erum virology: Hepatitis B ( | — |
