New octreotide pill faces off against current capsule in healthy volunteer study

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Healthy male or female aged 18 to 55 years (both inclusive). 2. Participants with a body mass index (BMI, weight \[kg\]/height2 \[m2\]) within 19-28 kg/m2, and with weight ≥ 50 kg for male, or ≥ 45 kg for female. 3. Participants with good physical condition, without any history of disease or clinically relevantly abnormal vital signs or physical examination. Participants in good general health, without clinically significant physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests, ECGs, or abdominal ultrasound findings at Screening or Check-in (Day -2) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with any aspect of study conduct or interpretation of results 4. Participants with childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception and have no plan for pregnancy from screening period throughout 3 months after the last dose of investigational product; Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative blood pregnancy test prior to the first dose of investigational products. Note: WOCBP are defined as females who have reached menarche but have not yet undergone menopause (defined as ≥12 consecutive months of amenorrhea for non-pathological reasons) and have not undergone surgical sterilization (removal of ovaries and/or uterus). 5.

Participants who have received a radiation dose exceeding 5 mSv within the past 12 months (e.g., more than 2 cranial CT scans \[approximately 2 mSv per scan\], more than 3 low-dose chest CT scans \[approximately 1.5 mSv per scan\], more than 1 standard chest CT scan \[4-7 mSv per scan\], or more than 1 abdominal CT scan \[8 mSv per scan\]), or have received a total radiation dose over 10 mSv in the preceding 5 years, or are scheduled to undergo additional radiological examinations during the trial or within one year after the completion of the trial. 5. AST \> ULN or bilirubin \> ULN. 6. Creatinine clearance \<90 mL/min during screening (calculation formula of Creatinine Clearance is detailed in Section 8.2.1.6). 7. Participants with a history or presence of hypothyroidism. 8. Participants with a history of drug abuse within 5 years or intake of any narcotics within 6 months before the initial administration, or who have a positive drug abuse test on admission. 9. Participants with a history of alcohol abuse within 6 months before the initial administration, defined as an average alcohol intake \> 2 units/day (1 unit of alcohol = 285 mL beer, or 25 mL spirits, or 100 mL wine). 10. Participants with a history of smoking \> 5 cigarettes/day within 3 months before the initial administration or unable to refrain from using any tobacco or nicotine-containing product within 48 hours prior to administration and during hospitalization. 11.

Participants who have received major surgery or hospitalized within 3 months before the initial administration. 13. Participants who have received investigational drugs or participated in other clinical trials within 3 months before the initial administration. 14. Participants who have received prescription drug within 14 days before the initial administration. 15. Participants who have taken high-density medications such as bismuth agents and calcium agents within 7 days before the initial administration. 16. Participants who have received over the counter (OTC) drug or herb within 7 days before the initial administration. 17. Participants who have consumed grapefruit juice, or other food or beverage containing caffeine or xanthine within 7 days before the initial administration. 18.

Participants cannot receive standard meals during the study. 20. Participants who cannot tolerate venipuncture or have a history of fear of needles or hemophobia. 21.
