Brief summary

This study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetics of bupivacaine liposomal injection (test preparation) in healthy subjects. The manufactured liposomal bupivacaine injection (EXPAREL®) was used as the reference formulation to evaluate the human bioequivalence between the two formulations.

Subjects with history of serious diseases including but not limited to circulatory system, endocrine system, nervous system, digestive system, respiratory system, hematology, immunology, psychiatry and metabolic disorders; 3. Abnormalities at the injection site (including skin diseases, open wounds, inflammation, scars, tattoos, etc.), which may affect the drug absorption; 4. Subjects who had undergone major trauma surgery within 6 months before the screening, or planned a surgery during the study; 5. Using any drugs that inhibit or induce the metabolism of drugs in liver within 30 days before the study (such as: inducers: barbiturates, carbamazepine, phenytoin, glucocorticoids, omeprazole; inhibitors: SSRI antidepressants, cimetidine, diltiazem, macrolides, nitroimidazoles, sedative hypnotics, verapamil, fluoroquinolones and antihistamines); 6. Use of any medication within 14 days prior to dosing (including vitamin products and herbal medicines); 7. Subjects who have taken any clinical investigational products or participated in the clinical research of medical devices within 3 months before the trial, or plan to participate in other clinical trials during the study; 8. Blood donation or massive loss (≥ 200 ml, excluding blood loss during menstrual period), received blood transfusion or blood products within 3 months before the trial; 9. Subjects who take more than 5 cigarettes per day on average within 3 months prior to the study or do not agree to prohibit smoking during the study; 10.

Positive results in any one of Hepatitis B virus surface antigen, hepatitis C virus antibody, HIV antibody or syphilis serum reagin test; 14. Difficulty in venous blood collection or unable to tolerate venipuncture or abdominal subcutaneous injection; 15. Consumption of any special diet within 48 hours prior to dosing (including grapefruit, chocolate, xanthine rich food / beverage) and / or excessive consumption of tea, coffee, grapefruit juice, caffeinated beverage (more than 8 cups per day, 200 mL per cup) for the past three months; 16.
