This was a single centre, open-label, randomised, 5-way crossover study.
This was a single centre, open-label, randomised, 5-way crossover study design to compare the PK of Infacort® versus immediate-release hydrocortisone tablets and to evaluate the dose proportionality of 0.5 mg, 2 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg Infacort®. The study was conducted in 1 cohort of 16 healthy male subjects and comprised a Screening Visit, 5 treatment periods (Treatment Periods 1 to 5) and a Post-study Visit.

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Infacort vs Hydrocortisone
To compare the Cmax of Infacort® versus immediate-release hydrocortisone in a single dose of 10 mg.
Time frame: -1h, -0.5h, 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 3.5h, 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h, 6h, 6.5h, 7h, 7.5h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h, 12h
Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Infacort vs Hydrocortisone
To compare the Tmax of Infacort® versus immediate-release hydrocortisone in a single dose of 10 mg.
Time frame: -1h, -0.5h, 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 3.5h, 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h, 6h, 6.5h, 7h, 7.5h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h, 12h
Area Under the Curve (AUC0-t) of Infacort vs Hydrocortisone
To compare the AUC0-t of Infacort® versus immediate-release hydrocortisone in a single dose of 10 mg. AUC0-t represents the total exposure to drug over time, hence the reporting of a single value below.
Time frame: -1h, -0.5h, 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 3.5h, 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h, 6h, 6.5h, 7h, 7.5h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h, 12h
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Infacort at Doses of 0.5, 2, 5 and 10 mg
To determine the dose proportionality for Infacort® at doses of 0.5 mg, 2 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg.
Time frame: -1h, -0.5h, 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 3.5h, 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h, 6h, 6.5h, 7h, 7.5h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h, 12h
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Infacort at Doses of 0.5, 2, 5 and 10 mg
To determine the dose proportionality for Infacort® at doses of 0.5 mg, 2 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg.
Time frame: -1h, -0.5h, 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 3.5h, 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h, 6h, 6.5h, 7h, 7.5h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h, 12h
