DW-1021 combination pill versus taking Pelubi CR plus Zytram CR while fasting
Official title: A Randomized, Open-label, Single Oral Dose, Two-period, Cross-over Trial to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Pelubiprofen-Tramadol (DW-1021) Controlled Release Film Coated Tablets (Pelubiprofen 45mg-Tramadol 45.9mg Salt) (Test Drug) in Comparison With the Co-administration of Each of Pelubi CR 45mg Controlled Release Film Coated Tablets (Pelubiprofen 45mg) and Zytram CR 75mg Controlled Release Film Coated Tablets (Tramadol HCl 75mg) in Healthy Adult Vietnamese Male Subjects Under Fasting Condition
Run by Haiphong University of Medicine and Pharmacy · NCT07032558 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study will test whether a single DW-1021 combination pill produces similar blood levels to taking Pelubi CR and Zytram CR separately in healthy adult Vietnamese men.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Healthy Vietnamese men aged 20–40 years with BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m², body weight over 50 kg, normal vital signs, and no clinically significant medical history are the intended participants.
✕Probably not a fit
People with pain conditions who need therapeutic treatment, women, those outside the required age/BMI ranges, or anyone with significant medical issues would not gain clinical benefit from participating in this pharmacokinetic study.

What this trial studies
This Phase 1, randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-period crossover trial enrolls 14 healthy adult male volunteers to compare the pharmacokinetics of DW-1021 (pelubiprofen + tramadol) with co‑administration of Pelubi CR and Zytram CR under fasting conditions. Participants are randomized to one of two dosing sequences with a 14-day washout between periods and blood sampling up to 48 hours after each dose. Primary endpoints are peak concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC); secondary PK measures include Tmax, AUC∞, and half-life. Safety is monitored with adverse event reporting, vital signs, labs, and physical exams throughout the study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If results show similar absorption, DW-1021 could simplify dosing by combining pelubiprofen and tramadol into a single pill with comparable blood levels to the separate products.
How similar studies have gone: Pharmacokinetic crossover comparisons are a standard and well‑validated method, and similar fixed‑dose combination PK studies have often shown comparable absorption, though DW-1021 itself is a novel formulation.
