ted after dosing over a period of 36 hours. After a washout period of eight days, each participant was crossed over to receive the alternate tablet, and plasma samples were collected according to the same schedule. A total of 28 subjects completed both arms of the study. This study was conducted as recommended by the Food and Drug Administration's Guidance for Industry, "Bioavailability and Bioequivalence Studies for Orally Administered Drug Products - General Considerations."

Bioequivalence of the two tablet formulations is supported by the pharmacokinetic data collected for CPP-109 and Sabril(R). Specifically, the maximum plasma concentration and area under the curve for vigabatrin were similar for CPP-109 and Sabril(R) Tablets. The 90% geometric confidence intervals attained for these pharmacokinetic parameters were well within the 80% to 125% range recommended by the Food and Drug Administration's Guidance for Industry, "Statistical Approaches to Establishing Bioequivalence," and the two products meet the requirements to be considered bioequivalent.
