Bioequivalence of two oral formulations of tebipenem pivoxil hydrobromide in healthy subjects.

ABSTRACT: Tebipenem pivoxil hydrobromide (TBP-PI-HBr) is a novel oral carbapenem prodrug of tebipenem (TBP), the active moiety, currently in development for treating serious bacterial infections. This study assessed the bioequivalence (BE) of the clinical trial and registration tablet formulations of TBP-PI-HBr and evaluated the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of tebipenem. This was a single center, open-label, randomized, single-dose, three-sequence, four-period crossover, BE, and food-effect study. Subjects received single 600 mg oral doses of TBP-PI-HBr as the reference clinical trial tablet (treatment A) and test registration tablet (treatment B) formulations in alternating sequence while fasting, and then the test formulation under fed conditions. Whole blood samples were collected
