Zongertinib tablets from two makers: do they behave the same when taken with or without food
Official title: Bioequivalence of Zongertinib Tablets From Two Different Manufacturers Following Oral Administration in Healthy Male and Female Trial Participants in Fasted and Fed State (an Open-label, Randomised, Single-dose, Four-period, Four-sequence Crossover Trial)
Run by Boehringer Ingelheim · NCT07789028 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This early study tests whether two different Zongertinib tablet formulations give similar body levels in healthy adults when taken by mouth, with or without food.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Healthy adults aged 18–50 with BMI 18.5–29.9 kg/m² who provide informed consent and pass safety screenings.
✕Probably not a fit
Individuals with active medical conditions or abnormal baseline safety measurements may not benefit from the study.

What this trial studies
This Phase 1 trial in healthy adults compares two Zongertinib tablet formulations to determine bioequivalence after oral dosing. Participants are healthy men and women aged 18–50 who meet safety criteria, and the study involves standard clinical assessments, blood tests, ECGs, and monitoring to measure drug exposure. Participants receive Zongertinib Formulation A (reference) and Formulation B (test) under controlled conditions and with attention to potential food effects. The trial aims to establish that the two formulations yield similar pharmacokinetics, which could support interchangeable use if both are safe and effective.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If bioequivalence is shown, the test formulation could be used interchangeably with the reference product, potentially expanding manufacturing options.
How similar studies have gone: Bioequivalence studies for oral drugs are common and have successfully demonstrated equivalent exposure between formulations in prior trials.
