Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Pharmacokinetics study Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.00, 2.25, 2.50, 2.75, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 6.00, 8.00, 10.00, 12.00, 24.00, 36.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours post dose. Each sample will be analysed using Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS) to test the Etoricoxib analyte concentration

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Bioequivalence Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.00, 2.25, 2.50, 2.75, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 6.00, 8.00, 10.00, 12.00, 24.00, 36.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours post dose. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) & Maximum concentration (CMAX) percentage will be calculated. The passing range is between 80 - 125%
