Objective:  To evaluate and to compare the bioavailability, the influence of food intake on the bioavailability, and the safety and tolerability of a newly-developed oxycodone once-daily (OOD) prolonged-release tablet with an established oxycodone twice-daily (OTD) prolonged-release tablet after single-dose administration under fasting or fed conditions as well as after multiple-dose administration.  Materials and methods:  Three single-center, open-label, randomized, balanced, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence crossover studies were conducted. In each study, 36 healthy volunteers were randomized to receive 10 mg oxycodone daily as OOD (oxycodone HCL 10-mg PR tablets XL (Develco Pharma Schweiz AG, Pratteln, Switzerland); administration of 1 tablet in the morning) or as OTD (reference formulation: oxygesic 5-mg tablets (Mundipharma GmbH, Limburg an der Lahn, Germany); administration of 1 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet in the evening). Tablets were administered once daily or twice daily under fasting conditions (study 1) or under fed conditions (study 2) as well as after multiple-dose administration (study 3). A sufficient number of blood samples were taken for describing plasma profiles and for calculation of pharmacokinetic parameters. Plasma concentrations of oxycodone were determined by LC-MS/MS. Safety and tolerability were monitored and assessed in all three studies.  Results:  Plasma profiles of OOD reveal sustained concentrations of oxycodone over the complete dosing interval of 24 hours. In comparison to the OTD reference formulation, the OOD test formulation showed a slightly slower increase of concentrations within the absorption phase and similar plasma concentrations at the maximum and at the end of the dosing interval (24 hours). Extent of bioavailability (AUC), maximum plasma concentrations (C max ), and plasma concentrations at the end of the dosing interval (C τ,ss,24h ) of OOD could be classified as comparable to OTD considering 90% confidence intervals (CIs) and acceptance limits of 80.00 – 125.00%. Bioavailability of OOD was not influenced by concomitant food intake. OOD and OTD were generally well tolerated, a difference between the two products could not be observed.  Conclusion:  The new 10-mg OOD formulation provides sustained oxycodone plasma concentrations over the dosing interval of 24 hours and is suitable for once-daily administration. Bioavailability of OOD could be classified as comparable to the twice-daily administration of the OTD reference formulation. The new formulation widens and optimizes the range of strong opioid drug products in patient-centered therapy of chronic pain with simplified dosing and better compliance.
