Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time Zero to Last Observed Concentration at Time t (AUC[0-t]) for Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose

AUC(0-t) was defined as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last observed concentration at time t calculated using the linear up log down trapezoidal rule. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of AUC(0-t). Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time Zero to Time Infinity (AUC [0-inf]) for Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose

AUC (0-inf) was defined as area under the plasma concentration versus time curve calculated from time 0 to infinity, computed as AUC(0-inf) = AUC(0-t) +Ct/λz where Ct was the plasma concentration at the last measurable sampling time point and λz was the terminal elimination rate constant. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of AUC(0-inf). PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

Observed Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose

Cmax was defined as maximum observed post-dose plasma concentration for ibuprofen. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of Cmax. PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

AUC(0-t) for Ibuprofen in Fed Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and 10, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose

AUC(0-t) was defined as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last observed concentration at time t calculated using the linear up log down trapezoidal rule. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of AUC(0-t). PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

AUC (0-inf) for Ibuprofen in Fed Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and 10, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose

AUC (0-inf) was defined as area under the plasma concentration versus time curve calculated from time 0 to infinity, computed as AUC(0-inf) = AUC(0-t) +Ct/λz where Ct was the plasma concentration at the last measurable sampling time point and λz was the terminal elimination rate constant. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of AUC(0-inf). PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

Cmax for Ibuprofen in Fed Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and 10, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose

Cmax was defined as maximum observed post-dose plasma concentration for ibuprofen. Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of Cmax. PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

Secondary Endpoints

Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose
Elimination Half-life (t1/2) of Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose
Terminal Elimination Rate Constant (λz) of Ibuprofen in Fasted Conditions
Pre-dose (within 2 hours prior to dosing) and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 minutes, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose

Frequently asked questions about Ibuprofen arginine granules

What is ibuprofen arginine granules?

Ibuprofen arginine granules is an investigational small molecule formulation of ibuprofen combined with arginine, developed by Haleon plc (ticker HLN). It is being studied for pain. The drug is in Phase 1 clinical development and is not approved; the only listed trial is a completed bioequivalence study in healthy adults.

What is ibuprofen arginine granules used for?

Ibuprofen arginine granules is being developed for the treatment of pain. It is an investigational product in Phase 1 development, so it is not approved for any use. The single registered trial enrolled healthy adult volunteers in China to compare two 400 mg formulations rather than to test pain relief.

What does ibuprofen arginine granules target?

Ibuprofen arginine granules targets PTGS2 and PTGS1, also known as cyclooxygenase-2 and cyclooxygenase-1. It acts as an inhibitor of these enzymes. The arginine component is combined with ibuprofen in a granule formulation, and the drug is a small molecule in Phase 1 development for pain.

Who makes ibuprofen arginine granules?

Ibuprofen arginine granules is developed by Haleon plc, which trades under the ticker HLN. Haleon is the company listed as the developer of this investigational pain asset, which is currently in Phase 1 clinical development.

What phase is ibuprofen arginine granules in?

Ibuprofen arginine granules is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA or any other regulator based on the available information. One Phase 1 trial has been completed, and no trials are currently active.

What clinical trials is ibuprofen arginine granules in?

Ibuprofen arginine granules has been studied in one completed Phase 1 trial, NCT05737069. That trial was a bioequivalence study of two ibuprofen arginine granules 400 mg formulations under fasting and fed conditions in Chinese healthy adult subjects. It enrolled 84 participants, was randomized and active controlled, and took place in China.
