Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a pilot study that was conducted to prove the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor generically named Ticaloguard® compared to its brand Brilique® in healthy volunteers. we advocate comparing the clinical efficacy rather than simple bioequivalence comparison.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Ticagrelor 90mg (Brilique)
  • Drug: Ticagrelor 90mg (Ticaloguard)
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Ticagrelor, is an oral antiplatelet drug used in acute coronary syndrome. Although generic drugs are approved for their bioequivalence to the original product, they are not necessarily to be therapeutically equivalent. This study was conducted to prove the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor generically named Ticaloguard® compared to its brand Brilique® in healthy volunteers. A loading dose of 180 mg ticagrelor named Brilique® or Ticaloguard® followed by a 90 mg twice daily regimen as maintenance dose was given to 14 and 15 volunteers in Ticaloguard and Brilique groups, respectively. The platelet aggregation on adenosine diphosphate (ADP) agonist was assessed at different time intervals .

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Brilique group

volunteers in the Brilique group received a loading dose of 180 mg brand Brilique® (AstraZeneca , Sweden) then 90 mg twice daily regimen for 4 days

Drug: Ticagrelor 90mg (Brilique)
compare the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor generically named Ticaloguard® compared to its brand Brilique® in healthy volunteers
Other Names:
  • Brilique
  • Experimental: Ticaloguard group

    volunteers in the Ticaloguard group received the Egyptian made generic ticalogaurd in a loading dose of 180 mg then 90 mg twice daily regimen for 4 day

    Drug: Ticagrelor 90mg (Ticaloguard)
    compare the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor generically named Ticaloguard® compared to its brand Brilique® in healthy volunteers
