Bioavailability Study of Colcrys® Crushed and Sprinkled on Applesauce

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Healthy

In brief

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the relative bioavailability of a single 0.6 mg tablet of Colcrys® (colchicine, USP) when crushed and sprinkled on applesauce (1 tablespoon) relative to the same dose given as an intact tablet to healthy subjects following an overnight fast. A secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of this regimen in healthy volunteers. All study subjects will be monitored for adverse events throughout the study period.
