| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Intranasal fentanyl spray (INFS, Instanyl®) was developed to treat cancer patients with Breakthrough Pain (BTP). INFS is delivered via a multi-dose delivery system (MDS) that is available in various dose strengths. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the pharmacokinetic bioequivalence of INFS single dose delivery system (SDS) in relation to the currently marketed MDS device. METHODS: In a randomized, single-center, single-dose, open label, comparative, four-period, two-sequence, replicate cross-over study, 48 healthy subjects (24 male and 24 female, mean age of 28.1 years, mean bodyweight 69.8 kg) received 200 µg/100 µl fentanyl administered via SDS and via MDS in one of two alternating treatment sequences. Naltrexone was given to all subjects to prevent potential fentanyl adverse drug reactions. Blood samples were frequently taken up to 72 hours post INFS administration and analyzed by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Primary pharmacokinetic parameters were area under the curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax). Statistical analyses of the primary pharmacokinetic parameters were performed using a linear mixed effect model applied to the natural log-transformed data. RESULTS: Healthy subjects showed very similar plasma concentration over time profiles for both delivery systems. The mean fentanyl Cmax and AUC0-∞ values for SDS and MDS were 948 pg/ml, 949 pg/ml and 4,439 pg×h/ml, 4,489 pg×h/ml. respectively. Point estimates (and 90% confidence intervals) for AUC and Cmax were 0.97 (0.93 - 1.02) and 1.00 (0.92 - 1.09) and therefore in the bioequivalence range of 0.80 - 1.25. CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study show that SDS and MDS met the pre-defined regulatory criteria for bioequivalence. Safety profiles were consistent between both devices and no safety concerns were identified with INFS administered in combination with oral naltrexone. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
