Pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence study of two capecitabine tablets in Chinese patients with solid tumor cancer

Capecitabine (CAP) is one of the fluoropyrimidine deoxynucleoside carbamates, which can be converted to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) by thymine deoxynucleoside phosphorylase (dThdPase) to exert antitumor effects. The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK), bioequivalence (BE), and safety of two CAP tablets in Chinese patients with solid tumor cancer. The results showed that the geometric mean ratios (GMRs) of Cmax, AUC0−t and AUC0–∞ of CAP T/R reagent were 90.26
