Abstract:
Objective: To explore the pharmacokinetics of self-made gliclazide modified release tablets in Beagle dogs and to evaluate the in vivo and in vitro correlation. Methods: Six Beagle dogs were orally given self-made gliclazide modified release tablets or reference preparation (DaMeiKang) at a dose of 30 mg with self-control cross-over method. Blood samples were collected at different time points after administration. The gliclazide concentration in plasma was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. The pharmacokinetic characteristics and relative bioavailability of self-made gliclazide modified release tablets were investigated, the bioequivalence was evaluated, and the in vivo and in vitro correlation was calculated. Results: Area under curve (AUC0-∞) of DaMeiKang was (101.74 ± 20.29) μg/(mL · h), and AUC0-∞ of self-made gliclazide modified release tablets was (95.40 ± 28.68) μg/(mL · h). There were no significant differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters between the test and reference formulations (P>0.05). The relative bioavailability of self-made gliclazide modified release tablets was 93.77%, which was bioequivalent with the reference preparation. The in vitro and in vivo correlation analysis showed that the correlation coefficients of DaMeiKang and self-made gliclazide modified release tablets were 0.912 and 0.894, respectively, which were higher than the critical value (r005.7=0.754). The in vitro release rates of the two preparations were correlated with the in vivo absorption rates. Conclusion: The self-made gliclazide modified release tablets have sustained-release characteristics and bioequivalence with reference preparation. The in vivo absorption behavior of gliclazide modified release tablets can be predicted by the in vitro release assay established in this study.
