Arm Intervention/treatment
Reference
10 mg atorvastatin
Drug: Atorvastatin

Experimental: Test
New 10 mg atorvastatin tablet
Drug: Atorvastatin
A single 10 mg dose of new formulation of 10 mg atorvastatin




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time (AUC Infinity) [ Time Frame: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose ]
    AUCinf = Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 (predose) extrapolated to infinite time; measured in nanograms times hour per milliliter (ng•hr/mL).

  2. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast) [ Time Frame: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose ]
    AUClast = area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 (predose) to the time of the last measureable concentration (Clast); measured in nanograms times hour per milliliter (ng•hr/mL).

  3. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [ Time Frame: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose ]
    Cmax = maximum observed plasma concentration. Measured in nanograms per milliter (ng/mL).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) [ Time Frame: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose ]
    Tmax = time (hours) to maximum plasma concentration (Cmax).

  2. Plasma Elimination Half-life (t1/2) [ Time Frame: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose ]
    t1/2 = terminal elimination half-life in hours.
