In 2001 US FDA proposed a draft guidance for future in vivo bioequivalence studies. The guidance suggested specific criteria for new drug sponsors to show prescribability and switchability in bioequivalence testing for approval of generic drugs. However, there is less acceptance of the need to change statistical procedures and study designs from those currently used to assess the current criterion of average bioequivalence. The measures of population and individual bioequivalence testing are introduced and statistical procedures for them are discussed.

Several statistical procedures for assessment of bioequivalence of variabilities between two drug formulations in bioequivalence trials are reviewed and modified methods for assessing total variability are suggested. The problem of the current US FDA aggregate criterion for population bioequivalence and the necessity of disaggregate criterion are discussed with an illustrated example.

A $2{\times}2$ crossover design including carryover effect is considered for assessment of population bioequivalence of two drug formulations in a Bayesian framework. In classical analysis, it is complex to deal with the carryover effect since the estimate of the drug effect is biased in the presence of a carryover effect. The proposed method in this article uses uninformative priors and vague proper priors for objectiveness of priors and the posterior probability distribution of the parameters of interest is derived with given priors. The posterior probabilities of the hypotheses for assessing population bioequivalence are evaluated based on a Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation method. An example with real data set is given for illustration.

최근 미국을 위시한 선진국에서 제제간의 생물학적 동등성을 판단하는 기준이 생체 이용률의 평균치를 비교하는 시험에서 분산까지 같이 고려하는 기준으로 바뀌고 있다. 처방성과 교차사용성을 의미하는 모집단과 개인 생물학적 동등성이 바로 그것이다. US FDA에서는 2 × 4 교차설계법을 활용해서 제제간의 생동성을 입증하는 것을 추천하고 있다. 현재 US FDA에서 제안하고 있는 모집단 생물학적 동등성 평가 방법은 통계적으로 문제점을 가지고 있어 최근 Lee, Shao & Chow(2002), Chow, Shao & Wang(2003), 그리고 McNally, Iyer & Mathew(2002)에 의해서 수정된 평가 방법들이 제안되고 있다. 본 연구 논문에서는 그동안 제제간의 생물학적 동등성 평가 설계법이였던 2×2 교차설계법을 이용해서 모집단 생물학적 동등성을 평가하는 방법을 논의하고 최근 제안된 방법들을 모의실험을 통해 비교하여 가장 적절한 방법론을 제안한다.

A Bayesian testing procedure is proposed for assessment of bioequivalence in both mean and variance which ensures population bioequivalence under normality assumption. We derive the joint posterior distribution of the means and variances in a standard 2 ${\times}$ 2 crossover experimental design and propose a Bayesian testing procedure for bioequivalence based on a Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. The proposed method is applied to a real data set.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the population pharmacokinetics of terbinafine according to two-compartment model will, lag time and to investigate the influence of characteristics or subjects such as body weight and age on the pharmacokinetic parameters of terbinatine. Serum data from 73 healthy male Korean subjects were used for this analysis. After overnight fast. each subject received a single 125 mg oral dose of terbinafine. (omitted)

Highly variable drugs (within-subject variability greater than 30%) have been difficult to meet current regulatory acceptance criteria using a reasonable number of study subjects. In this study, we reviewed previous studies presenting alternative approaches for bioequivalence evaluation of highly variable drugs, and focused on an approach for widening the bioequivalence acceptance limits using within-subject variability. We discussed the suggested five solutions for highly variable drug including the deletion of $C_{max}$ of the bioequivalence criteria, direct expansion of bioequivalence limit, multiple dose studies in steady state, bioequivalence assessment on the metabolite, add-on study, and widening the bioequivalence acceptance limits based on reference variability. The methods for widening of bioequivalence limits based on reference variability are scaled average bioequivalence containing within-subject variability on reference drug (${\sigma}_{WR}$), population bioequivalence derived from total variability on reference drug (${\sigma}_{TR}$) and test drug (${\sigma}_{TT}$), and individual bioequivalence derived from subject by formulation interaction variability (${\sigma}_D$) and within subject variability on reference drug (${\sigma}_{WR}$) and test drug (${\sigma}_{TR}$). To apply these methods, the switching variability (${\sigma}_0$) will have to be set by the regulatory authorities. The proposals of bioequivalence evaluation approach for the highly variable in Korea are presented for both of new drug and reevaluation drug.

In recent days, the bioequivalence(BE) study of domestic drugs on original drug are quite, activated in Korea. This BE study provide not only the bioequivalence of test and reference drug but also produce the population pharmacokinetic(PK) parameters in normal healthy Korean. The BE study can also make it possible to establish a PK/PD model of the drug when the additional pharmacodynamic(PD) data are available. (omitted)

This study was designed to establish a strategy for the bioequivalence study of doxifluridine, an anticancer drug, in dogs instead of cancer patients. Although the results from animals may not occur in the same manner from human, those would be worth enough in terns of the bioequivalence. As for critically ill population such as cancer patients, bioequivalence studies in animals bring many advantages. Six healthy Beagle dogs were selected on the basis of hematology and blood chemistry test. After an over night fast, 200 mg of doxifluridine was orally administered, and blood was serially taken up to 12 hours. Plasma concentration of doxifluridine was measured using a newly validated bioanalytical method by a HPLC coupled tandem mass spectrometry. Time course of plasma doxifluridine concentration was analyzed with non-compartmental and compartmental approaches. Consequently, we represented hematology and blood chemistry database for the selection of healthy Beagle dogs, and suggested a sensitive and validated analytical method of doxifluridine, as well as a study design for the bioequivalence of doxifluridine in dogs.
