Overview

Evaluation of Bioequivalence and Food Effect of a New Strength Formulation of Ammoxetine hydrochloride Enteric-coated Tablets in Healthy Participants.The study is composed of 2 parts. Part 1 is a bioequivalence study with administration 1.5 hours after a high-fat meal, using a randomized, open-label, single-dose, four-period fully replicated design. Part 2 is a food effect study using a single-center, open-label, single-dose, two-period crossover design.

3. Participants with normal results or abnormal results without clinical significance in medical history, vital signs, physical examination, laboratory tests (including hematology, blood biochemistry, urinalysis, coagulation function, and related tests), chest X-ray, and other examinations.
4. Participants and their partners must use effective non-hormonal contraceptive measures (e.g., condoms, inert intrauterine devices, etc.) from 2 weeks before screening until 6 months after the end of the study, unless they have already undergone permanent sterilization (e.g., bilateral tubal ligation, vasectomy, etc.). Participants must also refrain from donating sperm or eggs;
5. Participants who voluntarily sign the informed consent form and are willing to comply with the protocol to complete the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

2. Participants with psychiatric disorders, hepatic or renal dysfunction, gastrointestinal disorders, neurological disorders, or other systemic diseases;
3. Participants with orthostatic hypotension (a decrease in systolic blood pressure of ≥20 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of ≥10 mmHg upon standing compared to the supine position);
4. Participants with a QTcF interval exceeding the upper limit of normal (males \>450 ms or females \>470 ms) on 12-lead ECG, or clinically significant abnormalities on a ECG as judged by the investigator, or a history of arrhythmia, syncope associated with arrhythmia, use of a cardiac pacemaker, or other cardiac conditions. Note: Cardiac conditions include, but are not limited to: heart failure; hypokalemia; atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrial premature beats, ventricular premature beats, non-sustained or sustained ventricular tachycardia; bradycardia or sick sinus syndrome; personal or family history of any cardiac conduction abnormalities; personal or family history of long QT syndrome (LQTS); or family history of sudden cardiac death;
5. Heavy smokers or heavy drinkers (consumption of 14 units of alcohol per week within 4 weeks prior to screening: 1 unit = 285 mL beer, or 25 mL spirits, or 150 mL wine; smoking ≥5 cigarettes per day) or those with a history of other substance or drug abuse within the past year;
6. Participants with a positive alcohol breath test or positive urine drug screen at screening;
7. Participants with blood donation or blood loss exceeding 200 mL within 8 weeks prior to screening;
8. Participants who have participated in another clinical trial of an investigational drug within 3 months prior to screening;
9. Participants who habitually consumed excessive caffeinated beverages or foods within 4 weeks prior to screening (e.g., coffee, tea, chocolate, cola, energy drinks) with a daily caffeine intake exceeding 6 units. (1 caffeine unit = 1 cup of coffee \[177.4 mL\] = 2 cans of cola \[354.9 mL\] = 1 cup of tea \[354.9 mL\] = 1/2 can of energy drink = 85 g of chocolate);
10. Participants who used strong or moderate inhibitors of the drug-metabolizing enzyme (CYP2D6) within 4 weeks prior to screening
11. Participants who habitually consumed dragon fruit, mango, grapefruit, pomelo, sour orange, starfruit, pomegranate, or food/beverages prepared from these fruits within 7 days prior to screening;
12. Participants who used prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs, herbal products, vitamins, or minerals within 2 weeks prior to screening, or failed to complete at least 5 half-lives of elimination for previously used drugs, whichever is longer;
13. Participants who used any psychotropic drugs or psychoactive substances within 1 year prior to screening (psychoactive substances include central nervous system depressants, stimulants, hallucinogens, opioids, volatile solvents, novel psychoactive substances, etc.);
14. Pregnant or lactating women, or female participants with a positive pregnancy test at screening;
15. Participants with a history of surgery that affects the in vivo disposition of drugs, or any surgery within 3 months prior to screening, or planned surgery during the study period;
16. Participants who have hereditary galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption (history of diarrhea after drinking milk);
17. Participants with any other condition deemed by the investigator as unsuitable for participation in this study, or withdrawal of consent for personal reasons.
