Statistical Analysis 1 for AUC0-t (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Time of Last Measurable Concentration) for Ramipril.
Groups [1] All groups
Non-Inferiority/Equivalence Test [2] Yes
Ratio of the T/R geometric mean x 100 [3] 95.34
90% Confidence Interval ( 90.82 to 100.09 )
[1] Additional details about the analysis, such as null hypothesis and power calculation:
  No text entered.
[2] Details of power calculation, definition of non-inferiority margin, and other key parameters:
  The ANOVA model was utilized in comparing the effects between the test and reference products. Differences were declared statistically significant at the 5% level (p<0.05).
[3] Other relevant estimation information:
  Bioequivalence is established if the 90% confidence interval for the ln-transformed geometric mean between the reference and test product fall within the interval of 80-125%.



3.  Primary:   AUC0-inf (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity) for Ramipril.   [ Time Frame: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period. ]

4.  Secondary:   Cmax (Maximum Observed Concentration of Drug Substance in Plasma)for Ramiprilat.   [ Time Frame: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period. ]

5.  Secondary:   AUC0-72 (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Time of 72 Hours) for Ramiprilat.   [ Time Frame: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period. ]
