Abstract: AIM: To study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of single-dose oral moxifloxacin hydrochloride tablets under fasting and fed conditions, and use moxifloxacin hydrochloride tablets produced by Bayer Pharma AG as a reference to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of the two preparations, and evaluate the human bioequivalence of the two preparations.  METHODS: A single-center, randomized, open, two-period, and self-crossover design was adopted to conduct a fasting and fed bioequivalence study of 23 healthy subjects each. The 0.4 g dose preparations were taken orally per cycle on fasting or fed administration. The plasma concentrations of moxifloxacin at different times after administration were determined by HPLC-MS/MS. The main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated, and the bioavailability of the test preparation relative to the reference preparation was evaluated. RESULTS: After subjects in the fasting group took the test preparation T and the reference preparation R, the main pharmacokinetic parameters of moxifloxacin hydrochloride were: Cmax (3 476.0±855.2), (3 632.6±1 011.3) ng/mL; Tmax 1.50 (0.25, 4.00), 2.50 (0.25, 4.00) h; AUC0-t (54 972.81±11 400.81), (56 757.41±12 670.53) h·ng·mL-1; AUC0-∞ (56 791.17±11 681.08), (58 574.37±13 072.17) h·ng·mL-1; T1/2 (14.13±2.40), (13.85±2.44) h. After the subjects in the fed group took the test parameter T and the reference parameter R, the main pharmacokinetic parameters of moxifloxacin hydrochloride were: Cmax (3 744.3±819.2), (3 569.1±653.8) ng/mL; Tmax 1.50 (0.50, 4.00), 1.50 (0.50, 4.00) h; AUC0-t (51 613.98±10 725.93), (52 322.70±10 189.50) h·ng·mL-1; AUC0-∞ (53 585.13±10 954.51), (54 207.13±10 313.28) h·ng·mL-1; T1/2 (14.47±3.71), (14.53±3.04) h. The 90%CI of Cmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ geometric mean ratios of the fasting group and the fed group all fell between 80.00%-125.00%. CONCLUSION: The test preparation T and the reference preparation R under fasting and fed conditions are bioequivalent and safe.
