Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 300397 0
Comparison of XCalibur to Viagra using standard bioequivalence criteria. The method of evaluation for the Primary Objective will be standard bioequivalence criteria (90% CIs) of test product versus reference product for Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity and observed maximum plasma concentration. The pharmacokinetic analysis will be based on plasma concentrations of sildenafil
Timepoint [1] 300397 0
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis will be collected pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 hours post-dose
Secondary outcome [1] 329883 0
Comparison of the safety and tolerability of XCalibur Trademark capsule and Viagra Registered Trademark film-­-coated tablet through assessment of adverse events. The most common expected adverse events associated with sildenafil (the active ingredient in the study medication) include hypotension (low blood pressure), flushing and headache. Adverse events will be collected through adverse event probes and collection of vital signs.
Timepoint [1] 329883 0
Collection of adverse events will begin at time of initial dose of study medication through the follow-up visit (5 days after the last dose of study medication). Vital signs will be monitored pre-dose, at 30 minutes, and at hours 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 14 after taking study medication. Adverse event probes will be completed at the same time as post-dose vital signs.
