First seen May 26, 2026 · Last updated May 29, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested whether a generic gefitinib tablet works the same as the brand-name version (Iressa) in 38 healthy Chinese men. Each participant took one dose of each version after a meal, and researchers measured drug levels in the blood. The goal was to confirm the generic is equally absorbed, not to treat any disease.
