Bioequivalence of the Free Base Variant of Selumetinib (Treatment B) Compared to the Blue Reference Capsule (Treatment A) [Selumetinib Cmax]
The bioequivalence of the free base variant of selumetinib (Treatment B) as compared to the blue reference capsule (Treatment A) was evaluated by comparing the maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of selumetinib in healthy volunteers.
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).
Bioequivalence of the Free Base Variant of Selumetinib (Treatment B) Compared to the Blue Reference Capsule (Treatment A) [Selumetinib AUC]
The bioequivalence of the free base variant of selumetinib (Treatment B) as compared to the blue reference capsule (Treatment A) was evaluated by comparing the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUC) of selumetinib in healthy volunteers.
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).
Bioequivalence of the Free Base Variant of Selumetinib (Treatment B) Compared to the Blue Reference Capsule (Treatment A) [Selumetinib AUC(0-t)]
The bioequivalence of the free base variant of selumetinib (Treatment B) as compared to the blue reference capsule (Treatment A) was evaluated by comparing the AUC from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC\[0-t\]) of selumetinib in healthy volunteers.
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).

Relative Bioavailability of the TPGS Capsule Variant (Treatment C) Compared to the Blue Reference Capsule (Treatment A) [Selumetinib AUC(0-t)]
The relative bioavailability of the TPGS capsule variant of selumetinib (Treatment C) as compared to the blue reference capsule (Treatment A) was evaluated by comparing the AUC\[0-t\] of selumetinib in healthy volunteers.
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).
The PK of the Metabolite N-desmethyl Selumetinib by Assessment of Cmax
The PK of the metabolite N-desmethyl selumetinib was evaluated by assessing the Cmax of the metabolite in healthy volunteers after oral administration of single doses of the blue reference capsule (Treatment A), the free base variant capsule (Treatment B) and the TPGS variant capsule (Treatment C).
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).
The PK of N-desmethyl Selumetinib by Assessment of the AUC(0-t)
The PK of the metabolite N-desmethyl selumetinib was evaluated by assessing the AUC(0-t) of the metabolite in healthy volunteers after oral administration of single doses of the blue reference capsule (Treatment A), the free base variant capsule (Treatment B) and the TPGS variant capsule (Treatment C).
Time frame: Blood samples were collected pre-dose, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose for each of the separate treatment periods (Visits 2, 3 and 4).
