Bioequivalence Studies of Tacrolimus Capsule under Fasting and Fed Conditions in Healthy Male and Female Subjects
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The bioequivalence of tacrolimus (CAS 104987-11-3) 5 mg capsules was assessed in two single-dose, open-label, randomIzed 2-way crossover trials with a minimum washout period of 14 days; one trial was conducted under fasting condition (n = 44) and the other one under fed condition (n = 48). Blood samples were collected over a 120-h period and concentrations were assayed using a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS) method. A non-compartmental method was used for calculation of pharmacokinetic parameters. Under fasting conditions, mean AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and C(max) were comparable between the test (296 ng x h/mL, 318 ng x h/mL and 32 ng/ mL, respectively) and the reference formulations (289 ng x h/mL, 309 ng x h/mL and 33 ng/mL, respectively). T(max) was reached between 1.5 and 2 h post-dose. Mean AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and C(max) were also comparable under fed conditions (154 ng x h/mL, 169 ng x h/mL and 7.6 ng/mL, respectively, for the test and 161 ng x h/mL, 176 ng x h/mL and 7.5 ng/mL, respectively, for the reference formulation). Under fed conditions, T(max) was reached between 5 and 6 h post-dose. 90% geometric confidence intervals were all within the acceptable 80-125% limit, suggesting bioequivalence between the generic product and the innovator product.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
