Bioequivalence

QBIO conducts the full range of bioequivalence studies, from simple to replication, including clinical trials with patients.

Over the past 5 years, we have been the leader in Russia in the number of clinical bioequivalence studies conducted.

Clinical bioequivalence studies are conducted on the basis of the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, which combines medical departments, a chemical analysis laboratory, scientific and biostatistical groups.

Based on the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, it is possible to conduct turnkey clinical bioequivalence trials:

clinical, analytical, biostatistical and writing services.
Thanks to a unified quality management system at all stages of the study, including a unified system for handling biospecimens, we ensure high reliability of the results obtained, which influence the assessment of bioequivalence of the compared drugs.

We have experience in conducting clinical bioequivalence studies based on pharmacodynamic parameters:

Ointment forms of corticosteroids in healthy volunteers with assessment of pharmacodynamic parameters by the modified Stoughton-McKenzie vasoconstriction method using hardware chromametry;
Antacids in healthy volunteers with evaluation of PD parameters by the method of 24-hour pH measurement.

We have a license to circulate narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and their precursors, and therefore we conduct clinical trials of this class of drugs.

The database of the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre consists of:

3 inpatient units with 70 beds
2 intensive care units
Chemical analysis laboratory
Local clinical diagnostic laboratory
2 clinical bioequivalence study units
Research Department

EXPERIENCE

To date, we have conducted more than 180 phase bioequivalence clinical trials.
In total, more than 7,000 people have been involved in these trials.

SERVICE PACKAGE

Bioequivalence clinical study with INN Escitalopram

SUBJECTS: 20 (healthy volunteers)
RECRUITMENT DURATION: 2 weeks
RECRUITMENT DURATION: 6 months
Peculiarities: Based on the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, two turnkey clinical trials of the drug with INN Escitalopram were conducted. Our research team developed an initial package of documents for submission to the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, completed the clinical and analytical part of the trial, and subsequently prepared statistical and final reports. Based on the results obtained, the study drugs were successfully registered. It should be noted that the turnkey project was completed in only 6 months. The client was satisfied not only with the results of the project, but also with the deadlines and, most importantly, with the ‘optimised budget’.

    Clinical study of biosimilar product with INN Dabigatran

    SUBJECTS: 74 (healthy volunteers)
    RECRUITMENT DURATION: 2 weeks
    RECRUITMENT DURATION: 4 months
    Peculiarities: At the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, a 4-period clinical trial of the drug with the INN Dabigatran was conducted with inpatient subjects in a cohort of 46 people. The complexity of the project was the overlap of time points for a number of protocol activities, including PK biospecimen collection points. A solution to this problem was found in the ability to hospitalise subjects in two different units of the Centre, with teams working in parallel using a single synchronised time.

      Clinical pharmacodynamic equivalence study using 24-hour pH measurement

      SUBJECTS: 12 (healthy volunteers)
      RECRUITMENT DURATION: 4 weeks
      RECRUITMENT DURATION: 3 months
      Peculiarities: At the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, a clinical study was carried out to determine the pharmacodynamic equivalence of the drug with the INN Magaldrat. The complexity of the project lay in the methodological characteristics of 24-hour pH measurements and their invasiveness. A strict selection of subjects was required, also based on the results of fibrogastroduodenoscopy. The successful implementation of this project was made possible by the presence of an endoscopy department and a 24-hour pH measurement room in the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Research Centre, as well as the involvement in the implementation of this project of a specialized research team with experience in performing the above-mentioned diagnostic procedures.
