Brief summary
This is a single and multiple dose, single centre, open-label, one-way, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability clinical trial of Phase I to be performed in Chinese healthy male and female volunteers. Twenty-four (24) healthy male and female Chinese volunteers will be included in the study. Drop-out subjects will not be replaced. The study has been designed in agreement with the Chinese Technical Guideline on Clinical Pharmacokinetic Research of Chemical Drugs, 18 March 2005 and the European Guideline on the Investigation of Bioequivalence. No randomisation will take place in this study. All the participant will receive the same treatment with the investigational medicinal product (IMP), i.e. NAC, 300 mg/ 3 mL solution for injection.
Interventions
Two ampoules of IMP (300 + 300 mg) corresponding to a total dose of 600 mg of NAC diluted in 10 mL of NaCl 0.9% sterile saline solution, will be administered by a 5-minute i.v. infusion.
