2.0 SYNOPSIS
Safety Evaluations:
Detailed medical examination including medical history, physical examination, vital signs
(blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature), clinical laboratory tests, urine pregnancy test (for
females), FSH test, and 12-lead ECG were carried out at the time of screening to exclude any
clinically significant medical condition that may interfere or was likely to interfere with the
pharmacokinetics of the drug. Safety assessments were carried out at the time of check-in and
throughout the study.
Urine drug screen and alcohol breath analysis were carried out at the time of screening and
each study period check-in.
Urine pregnancy test (for all females) was performed at the time of screening, each study
period check-in, and at the end of the study.
In each study period, vital signs monitoring (blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature) was
collected in a sitting position prior to dosing. Vital signs (blood pressure and pulse rate) were
collected at 2.00, 12.00 and 24.00 hours after each dose and at ambulatory visits (36.00, 48.00,
and 72.00 hours post-dose). All in-house and ambulatory vitals were collected within a window
period of ± 30 minutes to the scheduled time (for deviations, refer to Appendix 16.2.2.2),
except pre-dose vitals. Pre-dose vitals were collected within 90 minutes prior to dosing in each
study period.
Adverse event monitoring (subject well-being questionnaire) was done at pre-dose, at 2.00,
12.00 and 24.00 hours post-dose, and at ambulatory visits (36.00, 48.00, and 72.00 hours post-
dose). All in-house adverse event monitoring (subject well-being questionnaire) was collected
within a window period of ± 30 minutes to the scheduled time (for deviations, refer to
Appendix 16.2.2.2), except pre-dose SWBQ. Pre-dose SWBQ was collected within 90 minutes
prior to dosing in each study period.
Statistical Methods:
Pharmacokinetic
Summary statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA), 90% confidence intervals, geometric
means and ratio of means (ratio analysis), intra-subject variability, and power were calculated
for pharmacokinetic data of Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine.
ANOVA was computed for Untransformed and Ln-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters of
Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- for Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine.
Individual subject ratio analysis was computed for Untransformed pharmacokinetic parameters
of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- for Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine.
All statistical analyses for Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine were performed using
PROC GLM Model of SAS® Release 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., USA).
Safety:
Adverse events (AEs) were collected and tabulated for all subjects who received at least one
dose of Test product (T) or Reference product (R). No formal statistical analyses of safety data
were performed.

7.0 INTRODUCTION
Background Information
The present study is to compare the rate and extent of absorption of Lisdexamfetamine
Dimesylate Capsules 70 mg (Test) of Norwich Pharmaceuticals, Inc. with Vyvanse®
(Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate) Capsules 70 mg (Reference) of Shire US Inc. when
given as a single oral dose to healthy, adult, human subjects under fasting conditions.
Indications and Usage
Vyvanse® is indicated for the treatment of:
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Moderate to Severe Binge Eating Disorder (BED) in adults.
Limitation of Use:
Vyvanse® is not indicated or recommended for weight loss. Use of other
sympathomimetic drugs for weight loss has been associated with serious cardiovascular
adverse events. The safety and effectiveness of Vyvanse® for the treatment of obesity
have not been established:
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic studies after oral administration of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate have
been conducted in healthy adult (capsule and chewable tablet formulations) and
pediatric (6 to 12 years) patients with ADHD (capsule formulation). After single dose
administration of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate, pharmacokinetics of
dextroamphetamine was found to be linear between 30 mg and 70 mg in a pediatric
study and between 50 mg and 250 mg in an adult study. Dextroamphetamine
pharmacokinetic parameters following administration of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate
in adults exhibited low inter-subject (<25%) and intra-subject (<8%) variability.
There is no accumulation of Lisdexamfetamine and dextroamphetamine at steady state
in healthy adults.
Safety and efficacy have not been studied above the maximum recommended dose of
70 mg.
Absorption:
Capsule formulation: Following single-dose oral administration of Vyvanse® capsule
(30 mg, 50 mg, or 70 mg) in patient’s ages 6 to 12 years with ADHD under fasted
conditions, Tmax of Lisdexamfetamine and dextroamphetamine was reached at
approximately 1 hour and 3.5 hour post dose, respectively. Weight/Dose normalized
AUC and Cmax values were the same in pediatric patient’s ages 6 to 12 years as the
Excretion:
Following oral administration of a 70 mg dose of radiolabeled Lisdexamfetamine
dimesylate to 6 healthy subjects, approximately 96% of the oral dose radioactivity was
recovered in the urine and only 0.3% recovered in the feces over a period of 120 hours.
Of the radioactivity recovered in the urine, 42% of the dose was related to
amphetamine, 25% to hippuric acid, and 2% to intact Lisdexamfetamine.
Adverse Reactions
The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections.
Known hypersensitivity to amphetamine products or other ingredients of
Vyvanse®.
Hypertensive Crisis When Used Concomitantly with Monoamine Oxidase
Inhibitors.
Drug Dependence.
Serious Cardiovascular Reactions.
Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Increases.
Psychiatric Adverse Reactions.
Suppression of Growth.
Peripheral Vasculopathy, including Raynaud’s phenomenon.
Serotonin Syndrome.

Subjects were provided a snack at check-in (Day -1) of each study period. Subjects
maintained an overnight fasting for at least 10.0 hours in each study period before drug
administration and four hours thereafter. Post-dose meals on Day 1 (Dosing Day) were
provided at approximately 4.5, 10 and 13 hours during each study period.
Standard meals were provided by the caterer. During housing, the meal plans were kept
identical for all periods. Information on the standardized meal, quantity consumed and
time was documented.
Drinking water was not permitted one hour before dosing until two hours post-dose; at
other times drinking water was permitted ad libitum.
Post-dose meals were provided with a window period of ± 30 minutes to the scheduled
time.

and T½ were calculated for plasma Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine for each
subject and each treatment using drug concentration-time data by non-compartmental
method utilizing Phoenix WinNonlin® Software, Version 8.0 (Certara USA, Inc.).
Pre-Study Measurements:
The following assessments were completed during screening, within 28 days prior to
period-I dose administration: medical history including medications, allergies, and
health history; complete physical examination including vital signs (blood pressure,
respiratory rate, pulse rate, and temperature); 12-lead ECG; and clinical laboratory tests
[hematology, chemistry, urinalysis, test for drugs of abuse (Amphetamine, Barbiturates,
Benzodiazepines, Cocaine metabolites, Marijuana (THC), Methadone, MDMA (3,4-
methylenedioxy-methamphetamine [Ecstasy]), Opiates, Opioids, Phencyclidine (PCP)),
screen for infectious diseases (HIV 1 & 2, HBsAg and HCV), alcohol breath analysis,
FSH test, and serum pregnancy test (for all females)]. Inclusion/exclusion criteria were
also assessed during screening.
Demographic data including sex, date of birth, height, weight, BMI, history of
smoking, history of intake of abusive/recreational drugs, history of alcohol
consumption, history of blood donation, and history of participation in a drug research
study were collected for each subject. The mean, standard deviation, and minimum and
maximum values of height, weight, age, and BMI are presented for all subjects in
Appendix 16.2.4.
Clinical Entry Measurements:
All subjects were briefly evaluated before each confinement period to assess whether
they continued to meet the study inclusion/exclusion criteria (see sections 9.3.1 and
9.3.2 of this report). In addition, a drugs of abuse screen [Amphetamine, Barbiturates,
Benzodiazepines, Cocaine metabolites, Marijuana (THC), Methadone, MDMA (3,4-
methylenedioxy-methamphetamine [Ecstasy]), Opiates, Opioids, Phencyclidine (PCP)],
alcohol breath analysis, and urine pregnancy test (for all females) were performed
during each study period check-in. Subjects who had negative test results were checked
in to the study areas.
Vital Signs Measurement:
In each period, vital signs monitoring (blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature) were
collected in a sitting position prior to dosing. Vital signs (blood pressure and pulse rate)
were collected at 2.00, 12.00 and 24.00 hours after each dose and at ambulatory visits
(36.00, 48.00, and 72.00 hours post-dose).
All in-house and ambulatory vitals were collected within a window period of ± 30
minutes to the scheduled time except pre-dose vitals (for deviations, refer to Appendix
K:\Common\REPORTS\A17.0566_Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate Capsules 70 mg_Fasting\a170566-study-report-body.doc

16.2.2.2). Pre-dose vitals were collected within 90 minutes prior to dosing in each
period.
Vital signs results can be found in Appendix 16.2.8.2.
Adverse Event Monitoring:
Adverse event monitoring (subject well-being questionnaire) was done at pre-dose, at
2.00, 12.00 and 24.00 hours post-dose, and at ambulatory visits (36.00, 48.00, and
72.00 hours post-dose). All in-house and ambulatory adverse event monitoring (subject
well-being questionnaire) were collected within a window period of ± 30 minutes to the
scheduled time (for deviations, refer to Appendix 16.2.2.2), except pre-dose SWBQ.
Pre-dose SWBQ was collected within 90 minutes prior to dosing in each period.
ECG (12-Lead) Recording and Evaluation:
A 12-lead ECG was collected during the screening visit and was evaluated by the
attending physician. All the subject’s ECGs collected during the screening visit were
found to be within normal limits or considered not clinically significant by the
physician.
Physical Examinations:
A physical examination was conducted by the attending physician during the screening
visit. All the subject’s systems during screening were found to be normal or considered
not clinically significant by the physician.
Post-Study/Study Exit:
Study exit procedures were completed after the last scheduled blood sample collection
for all of the subjects except withdrawal and dropout subjects who completed exit
procedures at the time of their last visit.
All subjects were required to complete a post-study evaluation including post-study
vitals (blood pressure and pulse rate), clinical laboratory tests (chemistry and
hematology), and urine pregnancy test (for all females). All subjects completed the
post-study evaluation. Results of clinical laboratory tests and urine pregnancy test can
be found in Appendix 16.2.8.1. Vital signs results can be found in Appendix 16.2.8.2.
no effect on the plasma concentration data. Plasma concentrations of the Test product
(T) and Reference product (R) were measured in this study.
AUC0-t The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve, from time
0 to the last measurable concentration, as calculated by the linear
trapezoidal method.
AUC0- The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time
0 to time infinity. AUC0- is calculated as the sum of the AUC0-t plus
the ratio of the last measurable plasma concentration (Ct) to the
elimination rate constant Kel.
AUC0- = AUC0-t + Ct/Kel
Secondary Parameters
These parameters were derived individually for each analysed subject from the
concentration vs time data of Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine in plasma.
Values below the lower limit of quantification were set to zero. The pharmacokinetic
parameters were calculated by non-compartmental model using Phoenix WinNonlin®
Software, Version 8.0 (Certara USA, Inc.).
Refer to Appendix 16.2.6 for individual and mean pharmacokinetic parameters of
Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine.
9.7 Statistical Methods Planned in the Protocol and Determination of Sample Size
9.7.1 Statistical and Analytical Plans
The data set for the estimation of pharmacokinetic parameters was prepared using
Phoenix WinNonlin® Software, Version 8.0 (Certara USA, Inc.). Estimation of
pharmacokinetic parameters was also carried out using the same software.
Descriptive statistics were computed and reported for all pharmacokinetic parameters of
Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine.
The comparison of pharmacokinetic parameters of Test product (T) and Reference
product (R) was carried out using PROC GLM of SAS® Version 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc.,
USA).
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out by employing PROC GLM of SAS®
Version 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., USA) for the Untransformed and Ln-transformed
pharmacokinetic parameters of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- for Lisdexamfetamine and
Dextroamphetamine.
The ANOVA model included treatment received, the period in which it was given along
with the sequence in which each treatment was being received, and the subject effect
(nested within the sequence). Sequence effect was tested by using the subject nested
within sequence mean square from the ANOVA as the error term.
An F-test was performed to determine the statistical significance of the period, sequence
and treatment effects involved in the model at a significance level of 5% (alpha = 0.05).
Ratio analysis was computed for Ln-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters of
Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- data.
A 90% confidence interval for the ratio of the Test product (T) and Reference product
(R) averages (geometric least squares mean) were calculated using the LSM for Ln-
transformed Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- of Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine
data.
The power of test to detect 20% difference between Test product (T) and Reference
product (R) formulations was computed and reported for Lisdexamfetamine and
Dextroamphetamine.
Intra-subject variability was calculated for Ln-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters
of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0- of Lisdexamfetamine and Dextroamphetamine data.
AUC0-t 89.16-103.72
AUC0- 89.31-103.62
Note: For active metabolite, Dextroamphetamine, the above data was provided as
supportive evidence of the comparable therapeutic outcome, but was not included in the
bioequivalence.
Details of statistical tests and results are discussed in section 11.4.1.
The detailed output of the statistical computations is presented in Appendix 16.1.9.
