Bioequivalence Study Comparing D961H Sachet and D961H Capsule in Japanese Healthy Male Subjects

• Profile of pharmacokinetic of D961H in terms of AUC0-t,ss, MRT, tmax,ss, and t1/2. [ Time Frame: Day 5 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • AUC0-t,ss-Area under plasma concentration time curve from zero to time of the last measurable concentration at steady state
  • MRT- Mean residence time
  • tmax,ss -time of maximum concentration at steady state
  • t½ -Terminal half-life
• Safety and tolerability of a D961H in terms of clinical laboratory tests, blood pressure, pulse rate and body temperature. [ Time Frame: Up to 5 to 7 days after the last dose. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
• Number of participants with adverse events. [ Time Frame: Up to 5 to 7 days after the last dose. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

This study is to investigate whether D961H sachet 20 mg is bioequivalent to D961H HPMC capsule 20 mg following repeated oral doses, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of these two formulations in healthy male Japanese subjects.
