Study No: ARI114694 Title : An open-label, randomized, single dose, two-period crossover study to determine the bioavailability of a fixed dose combination capsule formulation of dutasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride (0.5 mg/0.2 mg) relative to coadministration of dutasteride 0.5 mg capsules and tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.2 mg tablets in healthy male subjects of north east Asian and non-asian ancestry Rationale: The study was designed to assess the bioavailability of a fixed-dose combination (FDC) formulation of dutasteride 0.5 mg and tamsulosin hydrochloride (HCl) 0.2 mg, which is being developed for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia in patients prescribed a combination therapy of both drugs in Japan and other East-Asian countries, relative to coadministration of separate commercial formulations of dutasteride 0.5 mg and tamsulosin HCl 0.2 mg in healthy Asian and non-asian subjects. Phase: I Study Period: The study was initiated on 10 September 2010 and completed on 21 December 2010. Study Design: Open-label, randomized, single-dose, two-period crossover Centres: All subjects were enrolled and treated at 1 study centre in Australia. Indication: None Treatment: Subjects received concomitant single oral doses of tamsulosin HCl 0.2 mg and dutasteride 0.5 mg and a single oral dose of the FDC capsule (dutasteride 0.5 mg/tamsulosin HCl 0.2 mg), in a random sequence, either following a high-fat breakfast (, Regimens A and B, respectively) or in the fasted state (, Regimens C and D, respectively). Objectives: The primary objective was to investigate the bioavailability of a combination capsule formulation of dutasteride 0.5 mg/ tamsulosin hydrochloride (HCl) 0.2 mg relative to concomitant dosing of dutasteride 0.5 mg capsules and the Japan-sourced Harnal-D tamsulosin 0.2 mg tablets in the fed and fasted states Statistical Methods: The PK Parameter population comprised all subjects who provided data for one or more PK parameters. Dutasteride and tamsulosin PK parameters were derived from serum concentration-time data by noncompartmental methods. After loge transformation, AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) (for tamsulosin only) and Cmax in each dosing state (fed and fasted) were separately analyzed using a mixed effects model with fixed effect terms for period, ethnicity, treatment, and treatment by ethnicity interaction. Subjects were treated as a random effect in the model. Point estimates and their associated 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were constructed for the differences B A, D C, A C and B D and then backtransformed to provide point estimates and 90% CIs for the ratios B:A, D:C, A:C and B:D. Results for the same treatment comparisons were constructed for each ethnic group. Tmax in each dosing state (fed and fasted) was separately analyzed using the nonparametric Wilcoxon Matched Pairs method to compute point estimates and associated 90% CIs for the median differences B A and D C. The nonparametric Mann-Whitney method was used to compute point estimates and associated 90% CIs for the median differences A C and B D. The safety population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study medication. Safety data were listed and summarized; no formal statistical analyses of the safety data were performed. Study Population: Healthy male subjects who were 20-45 years of age, inclusive, with a body mass index (BMI) of 18-30 kg/m2 (Caucasians) or 18-28 kg/m2 (East-Asians) were eligible to participate in the study. For Asian subjects, ethnicity was defined as follows: Japanese ancestry: subject was born in Japan, had four ethnic Japanese grandparents, held a Japanese passport or identity papers, and was able to speak Japanese, Korean ancestry: subject was born in Korea, had four ethnic Korean grandparents, held a Korean passport or identity papers, and was able to speak Korean, Chinese ancestry defined as being born in China, Hong Kong, Singapore or Taiwan, having four ethnic Chinese grandparents, holding a Chinese passport or identity papers and being able to speak Chinese. Japanese, Korean and Chinese subjects had also lived outside their respective countries for less than 10 years. Of the 86 enrolled subjects, 22 (26%) subjects were of Japanese ancestry (10 in, 12 in ), 9 (10%) subjects were of Chinese ancestry (4 in, 5 in ), and 13 (15%) subjects were of Korean ancestry (6 in, 7 in ), according to the above definition. The remaining 42 (49%) subjects (22 subjects in, 1
20 subjects in ), were classified as non-asian.

Summary results of the statistical analysis of tamsulosin PK parameters are presented in the table below. The FDC capsule and coadministered commercial products were not bioequivalent for tamsulosin. The FDC capsule and commercial products were equivalent in the whole study population under both dosing conditions based on AUC; however, Cmax values were approximately 15-20% lower for the FDC capsule compared to the commercial products in both the fed and fasted states.
