concentration measurement.  
Efficacy Assessment(s): NA 
Drug Concentration Measurements: 
Blood samples for determining oxycodone plasma concentration will be obtained for each 
patient at pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 28, and 32 
hours post each study drug administration. 
 
For each sample, 4 mL of blood sample will be collected at the above time points. The total 
volume of blood to be collected from each patient for PK analysis will be approximately 
152 mL. 
 
If subjects experience vomiting within 12 hours after dosing of the study treatment, no 
further PK blood sampling will be undertaken for the rest of the study period. 
 
Blood samples, 4 mL each, will be drawn into tubes containing K2EDTA anticoagulant. 
After procurement, samples should be kept in a cool environment, preferably in a container 
of ice water, until processing. Samples must be centrifuged within 30 minutes of collection. 
Following centrifugation (1500 g, 4℃, 15 minutes), the plasma will be transferred, via 
pipettes, into two labelled polypropylene tubes, and stored at -20℃ within one hour of 
collection. 
Bioanalytical Methods: 
The plasma samples will be analysed by a validated bioanalytical assay for oxycodone. 
PK Parameters:  
AUCt, Area under the plasma concentration-time curve calculated from the time of dosing 
to infinity (AUCINF), terminal phase rate constant (LambdaZ), apparent terminal phase 
half-life (t1/2Z), Cmax, and time from dosing to the maximum observed concentration 
(tmax) for oxycodone. 
 
AUCt will be calculated using the linear trapezoidal method. Where possible, LambdaZ 
will be estimated using those points determined to be in the terminal log-linear phase. 
T1/2Z will be determined from the ratio of ln 2 to LambdaZ. The areas under the plasma 
concentration-time curve between the last measured point and infinity will be calculated 
from the ratio of the final observed plasma concentration (Clast) to LambdaZ. This will be 
added to the AUCt to yield AUCINF. 
 
Cmax and tmax will be obtained directly from the reported data. 
 
PK parameters will be determined using actual sampling times. All PK parameters 
calculations will be conducted using the Phoenix WinNonlin, Version 6.2 or later.  
Pharmacodynamic Measurements: NA

ONF16-CN-102 
Safety Assessments: 
Safety will be assessed by AEs, clinical laboratory results, vital signs (systolic blood 
pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, and axillary temperature), 
physical examination, and electrocardiogram (ECGs) in the safety populations.  
 
AEs will be recorded through spontaneous reporting from the time subjects provide their 
informed consent at screening until 7±1 days after the last dose of study drug, and through 
open questioning at each study visit. The subject’s AEs will be categorized into Preferred 
Term (PT) and associated System Organ Class (SOC) using the Medical Dictionary for 
Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAE) will be defined as AEs 
that start or increase in severity after the administration of OTR tablet 40 mg or 
OXYCONTIN tablet 40 mg. When the Investigators identify a serious adverse event (SAE), 
a completed SAE data form signed and dated must be forwarded to Mundipharma China 
within 24 hours. 
Statistical Methods: 
Efficacy Analyses: NA 
Interim Analyses: NA 
PK Analyses:  
Plasma concentration data and PK parameters will be listed for subjects in the enrolled 
population. 
 
Plasma concentration data for the analyte oxycodone will be summarised descriptively by 
nominal time-point and treatment for subjects in the PK population. Individual and mean 
plasma concentrations for the analyte oxycodone will also be plotted over time for each 
treatment. 
 
PK parameters (AUCt, AUCINF, Cmax, tmax, LambdaZ, and t1/2Z) for analyte oxycodone 
will be summarised descriptively by treatment for subjects in the PK population. 
 
The comparison will be OTR tablet 40 mg in a fasted state (test) vs. OXYCONTIN tablet 
40 mg in a fasted state (reference). 
 
Primary Analysis: 
The primary analysis will be for PK parameters AUCt and Cmax and for analyte 
oxycodone. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with fixed effect terms for treatment, period, 
sequence, and subject within sequence for ratio of means (using log scale) will be used to 
compare the test and the reference treatments. BE of test and reference will be concluded 
for a PK parameter of analyte oxycodone if the 90% Confidence Interval (CI) for the ratio 
(test/reference) falls completely within the BE acceptance range of 80.00% to 125.00%. BE 
of test and reference will be declared at all if it can be concluded for AUCt and Cmax, 
respectively. 
 
Secondary Analysis: 
The primary analysis will be repeated for the PK parameter AUCINF and for analyte 
oxycodone.

ONF16-CN-102 
The statistical analyses will exclude PK parameters for which any of the following criteria 
apply: vomiting within 12 hours after dosing, incorrect dosing, incomplete plasma profile 
which cannot adequately detail the parameter, pre-dose concentration > 5% of Cmax, R2 < 
0.85.The validity of PK data will be discussed further and evaluated during the data review 
meeting at the end of the study. In accordance with BE guidelines, only subjects that 
provide valid PK data for both the test and reference treatments will be included in the 
statistical analysis. 
Safety Analyses: 
All safety summaries will be based on the safety population. 
AEs will be classified into standardised terminology from the verbatim description 
(Investigators term) according to MedDRA Coding Dictionary to give a SOC and PT for 
each event. 
An overall summary of TEAEs will be provided by treatment group. The number and 
percentage of subjects reporting TEAEs will be summarised by the PT nested within the 
SOC. In addition, the number of reported TEAEs will be summarised.  
TEAEs will be summarised by worst severity and relationship to IMP. In addition, severe 
TEAEs, TEAEs leading to death, SAEs, and TEAEs requiring additional therapy will be 
summarised.   
Clinical laboratory parameters and vital signs will be summarised descriptively by 
treatment and time point. The frequency of clinical laboratory and vital sign results with 
respect to normal ranges will be presented. Results of clinical laboratory evaluations that lie 
outside the normal range will be flagged on the listings as high or low. 
The frequency of clinically significant ECG results will be presented. 
Sample Size Rationale: 
The study is designed to have a power of ≥ 95% to demonstrate a BE (e.g. AUCt and 
Cmax) of OTR tablet 40 mg, in terms of oxycodone, with OXYCONTIN tablet 40 mg in a 
fasted state.  
 
The null hypothesis is that the two treatments are not bioequivalent. The alternative 
hypothesis is that both treatments are bioequivalent. BE between both treatments will be 
concluded if the 90.00% CI for the ratio lies within 80.00% to 125.00% for both AUCt and 
Cmax for the oxycodone analyte. 
 
A total of 38 subjects will be randomised to receive study drug (19 subjects per treatment 
sequence) with the aim that 30 subjects will provide valid PK data (15 subjects per 
treatment sequence) and PK parameters (Cmax and AUCt). This will provide ≥ 95% power 
to show BE simultaneously in both parameters, Cmax and AUCt, between test and 
reference formulation, assuming a true ratio of 1, a within standard deviation (SD) of the 
period differences of 0.32 on the log scale for AUCt and 0.28 on the log scale for Cmax, 
both PK parameters are not anti-correlated, and 90% CI for the ratios of the population 
means within the BE limits of 80.00% and 125.00%. The within SD of the period 
differences was based on Purdue Pharma BE study OTR1005 in healthy volunteers taking 
oxycodone8.  
 
The sample size was estimated using NQuery t-tests (TOST of equivalence in ratio of means

6. INTRODUCTION 
6.1 Investigational Drug/Background 
Oxycodone, the derivative of the opium alkaloid analgesic, is a strong, semi-synthetic opioid 
analgesic, effective in the relief of mild to severe malignant and non-malignant pain1-5. As a mu- 
and kappa- opioid receptor agonist3, oxycodone exerts its agonist activity similar to that of 
morphine and other opioid analgesics. 
Oxycodone was launched in the United Kingdom (U.K.) in January 2000 as a prolonged release 
oral preparation (OXYCONTIN tablets) for the treatment of moderate to severe continuous pain. 
These OXYCONTIN tablets, manufactured and marketed by Bard Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and 
Napp Pharmaceuticals Limited respectively, are currently available as 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 mg 
strengths.  
In China, starting from 2004, the 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 mg of OXYCONTIN tablets have been 
marketed. These preparations have since been authorized for the treatment of moderate to severe 
around-the-clock pain. OXYCONTIN tablets are for 12-hourly administration. 
A new formulation, OTR, developed by Purdue Pharma L.P., provides improvements in the 
tamper resistant characteristics to make the tablet more difficult to manipulate for misuse and 
abuse. There is an increase in the ability of OTR to resist crushing, breaking, and dissolution 
using a variety of tools and solvents, which makes misuse more difficult and therefore safer for 
patients. The physicochemical properties make abuse via injection difficult. When subjected to 
an aqueous environment, OTR gradually forms a viscous hydrogel, i.e. a gelatinous mass, which 
resists passage through a needle. Clinical studies also suggest that OTR has physicochemical 
properties that are expected to reduce abuse via the intranasal route6. 
The goal of this study is to demonstrate that the new formulation, OTR, is bioequivalent to the 
marketed available OXYCONTIN in 40 mg dosage in a fasted state. 
6.2 Design Rationale 
OTR tablet 40 mg contains the same amount of active ingredient oxycodone as OXYCONTIN 
tablet 40 mg, which is market available. The BE of OTR tablet 40 mg to OXYCONTIN tablet 40 
mg will be examined.  
 
The investigation is designed as an open-label, single dose, randomized, and cross-over study to 
determine the PK profile of oxycodone from OTR tablet 40 mg and OXYCONTIN tablet 40 mg 
in Chinese subjects with chronic pain in a fasted state due to the reasons addressed in the 
following paragraphs. 
 
First of all, the China regulations for drug registration require that controlled medicine (opioid is 
categorized to be a controlled medicine) should not be applied in healthy volunteers in clinical 
studies. In this BE study, subjects with histories of chronic pain are chosen as the target 
population. Per guideline, in this situation, Sponsor should attempt to enrol subjects whose 
disease process is expected to be stable for the duration of the study9.

ONF16-CN-102 
Inclusion/exclusion criteria are strictly defined to reduce the potential variation of the PK data. 
The subjects with abnormal liver and kidney functions, which may affect the metabolism of 
oxycodone, or with recent histories of taking medications which are classified as inducers or 
inhibitors of CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 will be excluded from the study. The eligible subjects will 
generate more valid PK data for the study analysis.   
 
Single dose design is chosen per Food and Drug Administration (FDA)/WHO guideline on 
bioavailability (BA)/BE studies for modified-release products, i.e., "single dose studies are 
preferred to multiple-dose studies as single-dose studies are considered to provide more sensitive 
measurements of the release of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) from the pharmaceutical 
product into the systemic circulation."  
 
As a general rule, cross-over design is applied in the study to decrease the inter-individual 
variations between the two cohorts. A washout period lasting for at least 7 half-lives of the 
investigational medicine is needed to eliminate the drug residual from the previous period7. The 
elimination half-life of oxycodone from OTR is 4.5 hours6, and a 6-day washout period is 
sufficient to achieve the aim.  
 
Finally, open label design is applied since the plasma concentration of oxycodone is to be 
objectively tested and analysed and randomization will be applied to reduce selection bias. 
Naltrexone cover is used to reduce opioid-related AEs and increase tolerance to the study 
treatment.  
 
6.3 Risk/Benefit Assessment 
Opioid misuse and abuse is always the focus of attention from the regulatory authorities and 
clinical practisers. Compared with OXYCONTIN, OTR provides improvements in the tamper 
resistant characteristics which make the tablet more difficult to manipulate for misuse and abuse. 
The available data from clinical studies demonstrated that OTR has physicochemical properties 
that are expected to make abuse difficult and therefore reduce abuse.  
 
Subjects will get study treatment with close monitoring by the Investigators in a medical 
surveillance environment. Naltrexone cover will be applied in the study to reduce opioid-related 
AEs since naltrexone can block the effect of oxycodone effectively as an opioid antagonist. 
Common side effects, such as nausea and emesis, will be targeted by ondansetron. Also, in case 
of flare ups of pain during the study, rescue drugs paracetamol or ibuprofen can be used at the 
discretion of the Investigators.

8. STUDY SUMMARY AND GRAPHIC 
8.1 Overall Study Design and Plan 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 is an open-label, single dose, randomised, cross-over study to 
determine the fasted-state PK of oxycodone from OTR tablet 40 mg and OXYCONTIN tablet 40 
mg in Chinese subjects with chronic pain.  
The study consists of a Screening Phase, a Treatment and Sampling Phase, and a Safety Follow-
up Phase. The Screening Phase aims to check the eligibility of all subjects and will be completed 
within 21 days. The Treatment and Sampling Phase includes Period 1 and Period 2. Eligible 
subjects will report to the Sites one day before Period 1 for the reconfirmation of I/E criteria and 
will be randomized following a RAS system for the single-dose administration of either test or 
reference treatment. The randomized subjects will be administered with a single dose of the study 
drug on Day 1 of each Period at a fasted state. In Period 2, subjects will cross over to receive the 
single-dose administration of alternative study drug following a minimum 6-day washout 
between the 2 doses administration. Naltrexone tablets 50 mg will be administered at 13 hours, 1 
hour before and at 11, 23 hours after each dosing with the study drug respectively to reduce 
opioid-related AEs. Blood samples for PK analysis will be collected per each study drug dosing 
until 32 hours after as described in Table 1and Table 2. Subjects will remain in the study unit for 
72 hours after each study drug administration and will be contacted by phone calls for a safety 
follow-up on 7±1 days after the last study drug dosing in the case of completion or early 
discontinuation from the study. 
Subjects will be fasted (only water is permitted) from at least 10 hours prior to and at least 4 
hours after each dosing. Subjects will also have restricted fluid for one hour preceding and one 
hour after each dosing.  
AEs and concomitant medication will be recorded throughout the study. Vital signs will be 
periodically monitored as described in Table 1 and Table 2.

8.3 Efficacy Parameters 
Not investigated. 
8.4 PK Measurements 
8.4.1 Drug Concentration Measurements 
Blood samples for determining oxycodone plasma concentration will be collected within 5 
minutes pre dosing and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 28, and 32 hours 
post each study drug administration. For each sample, 4 mL blood sample will be drawn from a 
forearm vein into a tube containing K2EDTA anticoagulant. The total volume of blood to be 
collected from each subject will be approximately 152 mL. If subjects experience vomiting 
within 12 hours after dosing of the study treatment, no further PK blood sampling will be 
undertaken for the rest of the study period. After procurement, samples should be kept in a cool 
environment, preferably in a container of ice water, until processing. Samples must be 
centrifuged within 30 minutes of collection. Following centrifugation (1500 g, 4℃, 15 minutes), 
the plasma will be equally transferred, via pipettes, into two labelled polypropylene tubes, and 
stored at -20℃ within one hour of collection. 
 
Plasma concentration of oxycodone will be quantified by Liquid Chromatography - Tandem 
Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methodology using a previously validated assay.  
8.4.2 PK Parameters:  
AUCt, AUCINF, LambdaZ, t1/2Z, Cmax, and tmax for oxycodone will be calculated. 
 
AUCt will be calculated using the linear trapezoidal method. Where possible, LambdaZ will be 
estimated using those points determined to be in the terminal log-linear phase. And t1/2Z will be 
determined from the ratio of ln 2 to LambdaZ. The areas under the plasma concentration-time 
curve between the last measured point and infinity will be calculated from the ratio of Clast to 
LambdaZ. This will be added to the AUCt to yield AUCINF.

the following procedures in the Screening Phase: 
 
• The ICF (subjects will sign an ICF prior to executing all other activities.) 
• Demography 
• Medical history collection 
• Physical examination 
• Vital signs and BMI: pulse rate, respiration rate, supine blood pressure, and axillary 
temperature will be examined. Height and weight will be only performed at 
Screening Phase. It will be repeated if any vital sign falls outside the normal range 
and is considered potentially clinically significant.

methadone, benzodiazepines, phencyclidine, methamphetamine, or cannabinoids) 
and alcohol test  
• Blood β-HCG test for female subjects up to less than one year post-menopause  
• AEs collection after the ICF acquisition 
• Collection of concomitant medication and non-pharmacological therapies 
• Inclusion/Exclusion criteria list will be checked when all the results of 
examinations are available. 
Subjects who do not meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria are not permitted to attend 
the study. Eligible subjects also need to be instructed not to take alcohol 48 hours 
prior to the study drug dosing. Throughout the study, subjects will be reminded to 
immediately report AEs experienced to the medical staff. These will be recorded in

ONF16-CN-102 
storage of narcotics must be followed, and this will be the responsibility of the 
Investigators. 
The investigational site personnel must not destroy any study treatment labels or any 
partly used or unused study treatment supply until directed by the Sponsor or designee 
following accountability checks. Upon completion of drug accountability and 
reconciliation procedures by investigational site personnel and documentation 
procedures by Sponsor personnel, study treatment that is to be returned to the Sponsor 
or Sponsor designated warehouse must be sealed with tamper-evident seals and 
shipped back to the Sponsor or Sponsor designated warehouse following all China 
local regulatory and shipment laws. 
11.11 Retention of IMP Samples 
The samples of IMP must be retained for two years after the drug is approved for 
marketing7. 
12. Reference Values 
12.1 Physical/Vital Sign Assessments 
Vital signs (pulse rate, respiration rate, supine blood pressure, and axillary 
temperature) and weight measurements will be obtained at the visits designated on 
Table 1 and Table 2. Blood pressure and pulse rate will be measured after the subject 
has been supine for 3 minutes. 
Normal ranges for vital signs are shown in Appendix 18.2.1 Table 6.  
Each clinically notable vital sign abnormality has to be recorded on the AE section of 
the EDC. Table 7 in Appendix 18.2.1 describes parameters for clinically notable vital 
signs. Additionally, if the change in vital signs qualifies as an SAE it has to be 
reported to the Sponsor using the SAE data form (Section 13). 
12.2 Laboratory Assessments 
Local Site laboratories will perform tests to qualify subjects for entry into the study. 
Table 1 shows the time points when clinical laboratory tests will be performed. Table   
8 in Appendix 18.2.2 presents the clinical laboratory tests to be performed. 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 FINAL 1.0, 30/May/2016 
EuRD-0005-A0001 v7.0 
Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 40 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
A laboratory abnormality may qualify as an AE or SAE as described in Section 13.1. 
Additionally, if the abnormality qualifies as an SAE it must be reported to the 
Sponsor using the SAE data form (Section 13). Table 9 in Appendix 18.2.2 presents 
the criteria, i.e. upper limit, lower limit criteria for each laboratory parameter, which 
will be used to identify subjects with markedly abnormal laboratory values. 
Values out of the lower normal range do not automatically lead to an exclusion of the 
subject from the study. The decision to discontinue a subject from the study due to 
bilirubin or creatinine levels below the lower limit of normal should be based on the 
medical judgement of the Investigators. Microscopic urinalysis will only be 
performed when certain parameters of the macroscopic urinalysis show abnormal 
results. 
 
13. SAFETY ASSESSMENTS 
Safety assessments will be recorded from the point at which the ICF is signed. These 
will consist of: 
• Monitoring and recording all AEs and SAEs, observed or volunteered, 
regardless of suspected causal relationship to the IMP. This includes reactions, 
interactions, accidents, illnesses, misuse, and abuse.  
• Please refer to Table 1 section 10 for schedule visit arrangement including AE 
collection.  
The obligations and responsibilities with regards to collection, distribution, and 
onward reporting of AEs and reactions to the appropriate regulatory bodies, 
committees, and other Investigators will be carried out in accordance with local and 
international regulations and are documented in a separate Safety Plan. 
13.1 AEs and SAEs 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or a clinical trial subject 
administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal 
relationship with this treatment. 
An AE can be:   
• Any unfavourable and unintended sign (including reactions from overdose, 
abuse, or incorrect use of any treatment, or interaction) 
• Any new disease or exacerbation of an existing disease (e.g. increase in 
frequency or worsening in nature) 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 FINAL 1.0, 30/May/2016 
EuRD-0005-A0001 v7.0 
Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 41 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
• Any deterioration in measurements of laboratory values or other clinical tests 
(e.g. ECG, vital signs, or X-ray) that results in symptoms, a change in 
treatment, or discontinuation from the IMPs 
• Recurrence of an intermittent medical condition (e.g. headache) not present at 
baseline 
• Other medical events regardless of their relationship to the IMPs, such as 
accidents, falls, and any injuries resulting from them. 
An SAE is any AE that: 
• results in death 
• is life-threatening (i.e. the subject was at immediate risk of death from the AE 
as it occurred) 
• requires inpatient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalisation  
• results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
• is a congenital anomaly/birth defect (in the child of a subject who was exposed 
to the IMPs) 
• is a medically important event or reaction. 
Assessment of medically important events: 
The Investigators must check the list of Important Medical Events (supplied in the 
Investigators Site File) to determine whether criteria for an SAE is met. Additionally, 
any event not on this list, but that the Investigators determine is medically important 
(e.g. if it jeopardises the patient or requires intervention to prevent a serious outcome) 
should be reported as an SAE. 
An SAE must be reported immediately (within 24 hours), independent of the 
circumstances or suspected cause, if it occurs or comes to the attention of the 
Investigators at any time during the study period. Any SAE with a suspected causal 
relationship to the IMP occurring at any other time after completion of the study must 
be promptly reported. 
The following mandatory information must be provided to the Sponsor 
pharmacovigilance contact within 24 hours for each SAE: 
- Protocol number 
- Site number 
- Subject number/Screening number 
- SAE 
- IMPs 
- Serious Criteria 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 FINAL 1.0, 30/May/2016 
EuRD-0005-A0001 v7.0 
Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 42 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
- Investigators' name and contact details 
- Causality assessment. 
A succinct medical summary narrative should be provided as soon as possible. 
Follow-up information should be actively sought until the SAE has resolved or 
sequelae have stabilised. Additional information e.g. hospital reports or death 
certificates, may be requested by the Sponsor and should be 
anonymised/pseudonymised before transmission and subsequently filed in the 
Investigators Site File. 
The medical safety of the subject is of paramount importance when discussing study 
continuation. Not all SAEs will require the subject to be discontinued from the study. 
13.2 Reporting of AEs 
Reporting period – Events will be recorded from the point at which the ICF is signed 
until 7±1 days after last oxycodone dose in the case of completion/discontinuation 
from the study. This includes new AEs that are reported within 7±1 days after last 
oxycodone dosing after the subject’s completion/discontinuation visit. Any AE that is 
still ongoing 7±1 days after the last oxycodone dose will have an outcome of ‘ongoing’ 
in the EDC, however the Investigators will continue to follow up ongoing AEs and 
record information in the source documents. SAEs will be followed until the event 
resolves or the event or sequelae stabilise and this information will be reported to the 
Sponsor using the SAE Data Form. 
Medical conditions that are diagnosed at the screening visit will only be documented 
as AEs if they are known to have started or are suspected to have started after the 
subject has signed the ICF. All other medical findings at the medical examination at 
the screening visit will be documented as medical history. Medical judgement should 
be exercised to estimate if a condition is likely to have started between the signing of 
ICF and the date/time of the physical examination. 
If the Investigators become aware of an SAE after the completion of the study, which 
may have been caused by IMPs or NIMP used in the study, they should report it to the 
Sponsor by phone, fax, or e-mail. 
Screen failures - For subjects who are screen failures, AEs that occurred from the date 
of consent to the date of screen failure will be recorded on the AE section of EDC.  
For subjects who receive study treatment- All AEs will be collected on the AE section 
of EDC. In addition, a note should be made in the source documentation of the subject.   
SAEs- All SAEs will be collected on the AE section of EDC and flagged as serious. A 
separate paper SAE Data Form is supplied for immediate reporting.

Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 43 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
Reporting term - A cluster of signs and symptoms that results from a single cause or 
that could form a diagnosis should be reported as a single AE (e.g. fever, elevated 
white blood cell (WBC), cough, abnormal chest x-ray, etc. can all be reported as 
“pneumonia.”). 
Contact - The sponsor drug safety contact phone number/fax number and email 
address will be stored in the Investigators Site File. Questions relating to Drug Safety 
and Pharmacovigilance should be addressed to the numbers or e-mailed.  
13.3 Causality/Expectedness Assessment 
The relationship of an AE to the IMPs should be determined by the Investigators after 
thorough consideration of all facts that are available. 
Assessment of causality- This is based on considering associative connections (time 
or place), pharmacological explanations, previous knowledge of the drug, presence of 
characteristic clinical or pathological phenomena, underlying conditions in the study 
population, exclusion of other causes, and/or absence of alternative explanations. 
The Investigators will be asked if a reasonable possibility of a causal relationship 
to the IMPs is suspected. 
• “Yes” should be selected if there are facts (evidence) or arguments to suggest 
a causal relationship.  
• “No” should be selected if there are no facts (evidence) or arguments to 
suggest a causal relationship. 
If an AE is related to a non-investigational medicinal product, e.g. concomitant 
therapy only, and not an interaction or effect of the IMP, or to a study procedure, the 
causality assessment will be “No” (no reasonable possibility of a causal relationship 
to IMP). The suspected drug or procedure should be indicated in the narrative in such 
cases. 
Assessment of Expectedness - The expectedness of an AE is determined by the 
Sponsor in the reference safety information. The reference safety document used for 
assessing expectedness of AEs in this study is: the current Investigator’s Brochure (IB) 
for OTR and OXYCONTIN. The reference safety information is included in the safety 
section of the IB.

ONF16-CN-102 
13.4 Severity Assessment 
The Investigators (or medically qualified designee) will evaluate the comments of the 
subject and the response to treatment to judge the severity of the AE. Severity refers 
to the accumulated intensity of discomfort/impairment of health and will be assessed 
according to the following criteria: 
Mild:  Awareness of sign, symptom, or event, but easily tolerated. 
Moderate: Discomfort enough to cause interference with usual activity and may 
warrant intervention. 
Severe: Incapacitating with inability to do usual activities or significantly affects 
clinical status and warrants intervention. 
Note: A severe AE will not necessarily be an SAE. 
Any medication necessary for the treatment of an AE must be recorded on the 
Concomitant Therapy Section of the EDC. 
13.5 Pregnancy 
Pregnancy occurring in a male subject’s female partner or in a female subject during a 
clinical study must be reported to the Sponsor using the Pregnancy Notification Form. 
The Sponsor will contact the Investigators to confirm significant pregnancy 
information, i.e. AEs during pregnancy, the pregnancy outcome, and any events to 3 
months post-partum. 
13.6 Laboratory Abnormalities 
Abnormalities in laboratory test values should only be reported as AEs if any of the 
following apply: 
• They result in a change in IMP schedule of administration (change in 
dosage, delay in administration, IMP discontinuation, or other medical or 
treatment intervention (e.g. anaemia requiring transfusions or 
hyperglycaemia requiring potassium supplement)) 
• They are considered as clinically significant by the Investigators. 
Where possible, the AE description should be the diagnosis rather than the abnormal 
laboratory value. The same is true if abnormal values reflect a worsening of an 
underlying condition. Abnormal laboratory values that are present at Screening Phase 
are not AEs (unless they are a consequence of a screening procedure). Where an 
Investigator does not deem an abnormal (or markedly abnormal) laboratory value to

ONF16-CN-102 
be clinically significant, the reason must be clearly documented in the source notes 
(e.g. normal fluctuation of the disease). 
13.7 Vital Signs and Physical Examinations 
AEs from vital sign or physical examination assessments include any changes, values, 
or findings (abnormalities): 
• Which result in medical intervention  
• And/or is deemed by the Investigators as clinically significant 
• And/or meets the clinically notable abnormal criteria (see Table 7 in section 
18). 
13.8 ECG TEAE 
A simultaneous 12-lead resting ECG will be obtained at V1 and V3 will be performed 
during study only if clinically indicated. For consistency, the same physician should 
read all ECGs from one subject whenever possible. Abnormal test findings as judged 
by the Investigators as clinically significant should be recorded as AEs. 
13.9 Other Safety Considerations/Risk Management 
Preventable medication administration errors with an IMP are a potential safety issue 
and must be reported immediately to the Sponsor as a protocol deviation.  Examples 
of these include: 
• Overdose - This must always be reported, and may additionally (but not always) 
meet the criteria for an AE/SAE.   
• Drug Abuse - Defined as intentional excessive and persistent or sporadic use of 
a medicinal product which is accompanied by harmful physical or 
psychological effects. Drug abuse is always a medically important event and 
subject to immediate SAE reporting.   
• Drug Diversion - Defined as study treatment that is sold or given to other 
persons either deliberately or accidentally. This may include accidental 
misdirection of study supply into mainstream hospital supplies. AEs in persons 
other than the subject after drug diversion will be processed in the Sponsor’s 
drug safety database. 
Any packaging or labelling that has been identified as causing potential risk (e.g. due 
to similarity with other products or unclear instruction) must be immediately reported 
to the Sponsor.

14. STATISTICAL ANALYSES 
14.1 Statistical Methodology and Analytical Plans 
The statistical analyses described in this section will be performed as further outlined 
in the Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP), which will be finalised prior to database lock 
and will be included in the clinical study report for this protocol. The final SAP will 
take into account any amendment to the protocol. 
14.2 Statistical Considerations 
All data will be listed by treatment groups. 
 
In general, continuous data will be summarised by treatment group using the 
following descriptive statistics: n, mean, SD, median, minimum, and maximum.  
Categorical data will be summarised by treatment group as the number and percentage 
of subjects in each category. 
 
Further details of statistical methods and analyses will be documented in the SAP. 
14.3 Analysis Populations 
Enrolled Population 
The enrolled population is defined as all subjects who signed ICF. 
 
ITT Population 
The ITT population is defined as all randomised subjects. 
 
Safety Population 
The safety population is defined as all randomised subjects who received at least one 
dose of IMP.

ONF16-CN-102 
14.4 Protocol Deviations 
The following major protocol deviations may exclude a subject from the PK analysis: 
1) Failure to comply with the inclusion/exclusion criteria 
2) Received incorrect study treatment 
3) Received study prohibited concomitant drugs 
4) Failure to collect data for the primary endpoint as detailed in the protocol. 
Further details will be documented in the SAP. Additional factors excluding subjects 
from analysis populations may be included in the SAP for the study.  
Major protocol deviations will be agreed at the Data Review Meeting (DRM) prior to 
database lock.  
14.5 Sample Size and Power Considerations 
The study is designed to have a power of ≥ 95% to demonstrate BE (AUCt and Cmax) 
of OTR tablet 40 mg, in terms of oxycodone, with OXYCONTIN tablet 40 mg in a 
fasted state.  
The null hypothesis is that the two treatments are not bioequivalent. The alternative 
hypothesis is that both treatments are bioequivalent. BE between both treatments will 
be concluded if the 90% CI for the ratio lies within 80.00% to 125.00% for both 
AUCt and Cmax for the oxycodone analyte. 
A total of 38 subjects will be randomised to receive study drug (19 subjects per 
treatment sequence) with the aim that 30 subjects will provide valid PK data (15 
subjects per treatment sequence) and PK parameters (Cmax and AUCt). This will 
provide ≥ 95% power to show BE simultaneously in both parameters, Cmax and 
AUCt, between test and reference formulations, assuming a true ratio of 1, a within 
SD of the period differences of 0.32 on the log scale for AUCt and 0.28 on the log 
scale for Cmax, both PK parameters are not anti-correlated, and 90% CI for the ratios 
of the population means within the BE limits of 80.00% and 125.00%. The within SD 
of the period differences was based on Purdue Pharma BE study OTR1005 in healthy 
volunteers taking oxycodone8. 
The sample size was estimated using NQuery t-tests (TOST of equivalence in ratio of 
means for cross-over design (natural log scale).

data. 
Treatment exposure will be summarised by treatment group and overall for subjects in 
the safety population. 
 
14.12 Concomitant Medications Analyses 
Concomitant medications will be assigned an 11-digit code using the WHO Drug 
Dictionary Enhanced (WHO-DDE) drug codes. Concomitant medications will be 
further coded to the appropriate Anatomical-Therapeutic-Chemical (ATC) code 
indicating therapeutic classification.  
The number and percentage of subjects taking concomitant medications will be 
summarised by ATC anatomical class, pharmacological class, pharmacological sub-
class, and treatment group for subjects in the enrolled population. 
14.13 Safety Analyses 
All safety summaries will be based on the safety population. 
AEs will be classified into standardised terminology from the verbatim description 
(Investigators term) according to MedDRA Coding Dictionary to give an SOC and PT 
for each event. 
An overall summary of AEs will be provided by treatment groups. The number and 
percentage of subjects reporting AEs will be summarised by the PT nested within the 
SOC. In addition the number of reported AEs will be summarised.  
TEAE will be summarised. A TEAE will be defined as any AE with an onset date on 
or after IMP dosing if the AE was absent before IMP dosing, or worsened after IMP 
dosing. TEAEs/SAEs collected from dosing of IMP till the last visit will be 
summarized. AEs with an onset data before IMP dosing will be listed.  
TEAEs will be summarised by worst severity and relationship to IMP. In addition, 
severe TEAEs, TEAEs leading to death, SAEs, and TEAEs requiring additional 
therapy, TEAEs leading to discontinuation from study, TEAEs requiring additional 
therapy, TEAEs leading to dose reduction, and TEAEs leading to dose interruption 
will be summarised.   
The most frequent TEAEs will be summarised for the treatment period. These will 
also be presented graphically using a dot plot and a caterpillar plot within which the

percentage of subjects reporting each of the most common TEAEs will be presented 
alongside the odds ratio (and associated 95% CI) for comparing the incidence of AEs. 
Clinical laboratory parameters and vital signs will be summarised descriptively. The 
frequency of vital sign results with respect to normal ranges will be presented. The 
frequency of clinically significant ECG results will be presented. 
14.14 Analysis of TEAEs 
14.14.1 Laboratory Values 
Clinical laboratory data to be summarised includes haematology, blood chemistry, 
and urinalysis. Clinical laboratory results recorded at V1 and V3 and change from 
baseline to V3 will be summarised as continuous data for each parameter. Each 
parameter will be assigned an LNH classification according to whether the value is 
lower than (L), within (N) or higher than (H) the reference range for that parameter. 
Results will be summarised using shift tables to evaluate categorical changes from 
baseline to end of study with respect to reference range values (lower than, within, 
and higher than). 
Clinical laboratory values after IMP dosing will be evaluated for markedly abnormal 
values. The number and percentage of subjects reporting markedly abnormal values 
will be summarised for each parameter by treatment groups. Each subject can be 
counted once in the parameter high and the parameter low categories, as applicable. 
Scatter plots will be produced for each laboratory parameter comparing baseline and 
end of study values. In addition, clinically laboratory parameters will be plotted over 
time using a box and whisker plot. 
14.14.2 Vital Signs 
Vital sign parameters to be summarised include systolic blood pressure, diastolic 
blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, and axillary temperature.  
Vital sign results recorded at each visit and change from baseline to each test will be 
summarised as continuous data for each parameter. Table 7 of Section 18.2.1 lists the 
abnormal ranges applied for this study. 
Vital sign results for each parameter will be assigned an LNH classification according 
to whether the value is lower than (L), within (N), or higher than (H) the reference 
range for that parameter. Vital sign results will be summarised using shift tables to 
evaluate categorical changes from baseline to end of study with respect to reference 
range values (lower than, within, and higher than).

Vital sign values after IMP dosing will be evaluated for clinically notable 
abnormalities. The number and percentage of subjects reporting clinically notable 
abnormalities will be summarised for each parameter by treatment groups. Each 
subject can be counted once in the parameter high and the parameter low categories, 
as applicable.  
Scatter plots will be produced for each vital sign parameter comparing baseline and 
end of study values. In addition, vital signs will be plotted over time using a box and 
whisker plot. 
14.14.3 ECG 
ECG results will be recorded at V1 and V3. Clinically significant ECG findings as 
determined by the Investigators will be reported. 
14.15 Other Special Tests 
None planned. All analyses, including any further analyses not yet described in this 
study protocol, will be pre-specified and described in the SAP. 
14.16 PK Measurements and Analyses 
PK Analyses:  
Plasma concentration data and PK parameters will be listed for subjects in the 
enrolled population. 
Plasma concentration data for analyte oxycodone will be summarised descriptively by 
nominal time-point and treatment for subjects in the PK population. Individual and 
mean plasma concentrations for analyte oxycodone will also be plotted over time for 
each treatment. 
PK parameters (AUCt, AUCINF, Cmax, tmax, LambdaZ, and t1/2Z) for analyte 
oxycodone will be summarised descriptively by treatment for subjects in the PK 
population. 
The comparison will be OTR tablet 40 mg in fasted state (test) vs. OXYCONTIN 
tablet 40 mg in fasted state (reference). 
Primary Analysis:

EuRD-0005-A0001 v7.0 
Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 52 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
The primary analysis will be for PK parameters AUCt and Cmax and for analyte 
oxycodone. ANOVA with fixed effect terms for treatment, period, sequence, and 
subject within sequence for ratio of means (using log scale) will be used to compare 
the test and the reference treatments. BE of test and reference will be confirmed for a 
PK parameter of analyte oxycodone if the 90% CI for the ratio (test/reference) falls 
completely within the BE acceptance range of 80.00% to 125.00%. BE of test and 
reference will be confirmed in all if it can be confirmed with AUCt and Cmax. 
Secondary Analysis: 
The primary analysis will be repeated for the PK parameter AUCINF and for analyte 
oxycodone. 
The statistical analyses will exclude PK parameters for which any of the following 
criteria apply: vomiting within 12 hours after dosing, incorrect dosing, incomplete 
plasma profile which cannot adequately detail the parameter, pre-dose concentration > 
5% of Cmax, R2 < 0.85.The validity of PK data will be discussed further and 
evaluated during the data review meeting at the end of the study. In accordance with 
BE guidelines, only subjects that provide valid PK data for both the test and reference 
treatments will be included in the statistical analysis. 
Further details will be specified in the SAP.  
 
15. ETHICS& Regulatory 
15.1 Declaration of Ethical Conduct 
This study will be conducted in accordance with the SOPs of the Sponsor and CRO, 
which are designed to ensure adherence to GCP guidelines as required by the 
following: 
1. Declaration of Helsinki, 1964 (“Recommendations Guiding Physicians in 
Biomedical Research Involving Human Patients”), and all its accepted 
amendments to date concerning medical research in humans. 
2. GCP and relevant regulations. 
This study will be conducted in accordance with the regulation of narcotic drugs and 
psychotropic drugs in China. 
The Investigators agree, when signing the protocol, to adhere to the instructions and 
procedures described in the protocol and to adhere to the principles of GCP to which

Page 53 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
the protocol conforms as well as all governing local regulations and principles for 
medical research. 
15.2 Ethical and Regulatory Review 
The protocol, any protocol amendments, the patient information sheet (PIS), ICF and 
any study related information or documents issued to subjects for recruitment, data 
recording, etc., will be reviewed and approved along with other required documents 
by the study site’s local Ethics Committee (EC) before subjects are screened for entry. 
The ECs should be constituted and functioning in accordance with ICH E6, Section 
3.2, and any local regulations. 
A signed letter of positive opinion regarding the study from the EC Chairman must be 
sent to the Investigators who will provide the Sponsor with a copy prior to study start 
and the release of any study treatment to the Site by the Sponsor (ICH E6). The 
Investigators or Sponsor will submit, depending on local regulations, periodic reports 
and inform the EC of any reportable AEs per ICH guidelines and local EC standards 
of practice. SAEs should be reported to the EC in accordance with local regulatory 
requirements. 
In the case of early termination/temporary halt of the study, the Investigators should 
notify the EC and CA within 15 days and a detailed written explanation of the reasons 
for the termination/halt should be given. If the EC decides to suspend or terminate the 
study, the Investigators will immediately send the notice of study suspension or 
termination by the EC to the Sponsor. 
The end of the study will be the date of the last scheduled study visit for the last 
subject in the study. The Sponsor will always also provide the EC/CA with a 
summary of the study’s outcome. 
15.3 Subject Information and Consent 
Informed consent should be obtained by means of PIS and ICF, prepared in 
accordance with ICH E6 Section 4.8.10 and applicable local regulations, written in 
non-technical language. All subjects and/or legally authorised representatives will be 
provided with oral and written information describing the nature and duration of the 
study and the procedures to be performed. The subject will be asked to sign and date 
an ICF prior to any study-specific procedures being performed. No subject can enter 
the study before his informed consent has been obtained. A sample subject ICF used 
in the study will be included in the clinical study report for this protocol. 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 FINAL 1.0, 30/May/2016 
EuRD-0005-A0001 v7.0 
Clinical Study Protocol 
 
Page 54 of 65 

 
 
ONF16-CN-102 
As part of administering the informed consent document, the Investigators must 
explain to all subjects and/or their legally authorised representative the nature of the 
study, its purpose, the procedures involved, the expected duration, the potential risks 
and benefits involved, and any potential discomfort. Each subject must be informed 
that participation in the study is voluntary and that he may withdraw from the study at 
any time and that withdrawal of consent will not affect his subsequent medical 
treatment or relationship with the treating physician. The subject should understand 
the PIS and ICF before signing and dating the ICF. The Investigators or person 
obtaining consent must also sign and date the form. Each subject will be given a copy 
of the signed ICF and written information.  
The original signed ICF for each subject will be verified by the Clinical Research 
Associates (CRAs) from designated CRO and kept in the study centre investigational 
site files. This applies for any additional ICFs signed (e.g. for re-consent). 
15.4 Data Protection and Human Tissue Sampling 
Data protection will be carried out in accordance with the Principles of the Data 
Protection Act (1998) 95/46/EC. This will apply to all study data in whatever format 
it is collected and recorded.   
Any ECGs etc. collected for the trial will be retained in the patient’s notes held with 
the Investigators.  
Samples collected for the purpose of bioanalytical analysis will not be retained after 
analysis.  
15.5 Quality Assurance & Inspection Requirements 
This study will be organised, performed, and reported in compliance with the protocol, 
SOPs of the Sponsor and CRO. ICH E6 defines Quality Assurance (QA) as ‘all those 
planned and systemic actions that are established to ensure that the trial is performed 
and the data are generated, documented (recorded) and reported in compliance with 
GCP and the applicable regulatory requirements’. Sponsor QA activity will be 
undertaken as outlined in the study audit plan. Section 5.19.3 (b) of ICH E6 states that 
the audit plan and procedures for a trial audit should be guided by the importance of 
the trial to submissions to CA, the number of subjects in the trial, the type and 
complexity of the trial, the level of risks to the trial subjects, and any identified 
problem(s). The Investigators are required to support audit activities, to be available 
to the auditors upon requests, and to permit the auditor direct access to source 
data/documents.

ONF16-CN-102 
A CA/authorised third party may also wish to conduct an inspection (during the study 
or after its completion). If an inspection is requested by a CA, the Investigators must 
inform the Sponsor immediately that this request has been made. 
 
16. Study management Records & Publication 
16.1 Protocol Amendments 
The Investigators should not implement any deviation from, or changes to the 
protocol without agreement by the Sponsor and prior review and documented 
approval from the EC (ICH E6 4.5.2). 
Any change to the protocol requires a written substantial or non-substantial protocol 
amendment. Substantial protocol amendments specifically affecting the safety of 
subjects, the scope of the investigation, or the scientific quality of the study require 
approval by site EC and related organizations. These requirements should in no way 
prevent any immediate action from being taken by the Investigators, or by the 
Sponsor, in the interest of preserving the safety of all subjects included in the study. If 
an immediate change to the protocol is felt by the Investigators to be necessary for 
safety reasons, the Study Physician must be notified promptly and the EC for the Sites 
must be informed in accordance with the policy of the EC approving the study, local 
regulations and policies. Changes affecting only administrative aspects of the study do 
not require substantial protocol amendments or EC approval, but the EC must be kept 
informed of such changes. In these cases, the Sponsor will send a letter to the EC 
detailing such changes. 
16.2 Record Maintenance and Retention 
In order to provide the Sponsor with accurate, complete, and legible case reports, the 
following criteria are to be maintained in all study related and source documentation: 
• All entries are to be typed or printed using a ballpoint pen. 
• There are to be no erasures, write-overs, and use of correction fluid or tape. 
And the original entry must remain legible. 
• Errors are to be corrected by placing one line through the error. The correct 
entry should appear next to the error, dated, and initialled by the responsible 
person making the change.  The name of anyone making corrections must 
appear on the Site Signature Log collected at the beginning of the study and as 
Protocol ONF16-CN-102 FINAL 1.0, 30/May/2016

ONF16-CN-102 
study assignments change throughout the conduct of the study.  Each error is 
to be corrected separately. 
• The Investigators (Principal Investigators or Sub Investigators) must sign and 
date the CRF.  
• Changes to any study document that has been previously signed by the 
Investigators must be initialled and dated by the Investigators after the change 
is made. Changes made to CRFs issued by the Sponsor must likewise be 
traced and signed by the Investigators. 
Neither a subject’s name nor initials are to appear on documents transmitted to the 
Sponsor in order to maintain confidentiality.  
In order to provide the Sponsor/CRO with accurate, complete, and legible data, the 
following criteria are to be maintained: 
• Source documents will be completed according to a source document 
agreement outlining all the data that is to be collected in the source documents 
throughout the study. 
The circumstances of completion or termination of the study notwithstanding, the 
Investigators have the responsibility to retain all study documents, including but not 
limited to the protocol, copies of CRF, IB, regulatory agency registration documents, 
ICFs, and EC correspondence. 
The Sites should plan on retaining study documents for approximately 15 years after 
completion of the study.  This will include copies of CRF. 
It is requested that at the completion of the required retention period, or should the 
Investigators retire or relocate, the Investigators contact the Sponsor, allowing the 
Sponsor the option of permanently retaining the study records. Records retained will 
be stored independently of the Sponsor, and the Sponsor will not be permitted direct 
access to this data. 
16.3 Adherence to the Protocol 
The Investigators will conduct the study in strict accordance with the protocol, which 
has been written to enable the Investigators’ compliance with ICH E6, Section 4. 
There are to be no waivers to the Inclusion/Exclusion criteria and no Investigators-led 
deviations from the schedules and procedures set out within this protocol. Any subject 
whose treatment deviates from the protocol or who is not qualified for study 
participation may be ineligible for analysis and may compromise the study.

ONF16-CN-102 
Any unintentional deviation or violation that is discovered should be reported to the 
Sponsor immediately. Any deviation or violation that may have an impact upon 
subject’s safety or suitability for the study should be reported to EC, and discussed 
with the Study Physician. 
Subjects who have not signed an EC-approved ICF cannot receive study medication. 
The Investigators and research team must comply with the 13 principles of ICH GCP 
and all applicable local regulatory laws and regulations. 
16.4 Discontinuation of Study 
The Sponsor reserves the right to discontinue the study for medical or administrative 
reasons at any time, however not without good cause. Reimbursement for expenses 
covering subjects, use of live-in facilities, laboratory tests, and other professional fees 
will be made. The Investigators will refund the excess of payments made in advance. 
The Investigators reserve the right to discontinue the study should his/her judgement 
so dictate.  In such an event, final settlement of the grant-in-aid will be adjusted pro 
rata, and the Investigators will refund the excess of payments made in advance. The 
Investigators will notify the EC in case of study discontinuation.  Study records must 
be retained as noted above. 
16.5 Retention of Tissue Samples 
The blood samples will be kept for 2 years after the marketing approval per clinical 
trial approval of the product. 
16.6 Registration and Publication of Study Summary and 
Results 
The investigational site may publish or present the results of this protocol subject to 
the protection of any patentable rights of the Sponsor or its nominees and subject to 
the protection of the Sponsor’s confidential information. The Sponsor has the ultimate 
control over any decision to publish. The Sponsor will be furnished with a copy of 
any proposed publication or presentation at least 60 days prior to submission for 
review of confidential of patentable information. Upon notice by the Sponsor, 
however, that the Sponsor reasonably believes that a patent application claiming an 
invention relating to the study drug made during the performance of the study will be 
filed prior to such publication, such publication may be delayed for an additional 30

ONF16-CN-102 
days or until any patent application or applications have been filed, whichever will 
first occur. 
For multicenter studies, it is mandatory that the first publication be based on data 
obtained from all analysed subjects; therefore Investigators participating in 
multicentre studies must agree not to present data gathered individually or by a 
subgroup of centers prior to the full, initial publication, unless this has been agreed to 
by all other Investigators and the Sponsor. Authorship of communications arising 
from pooled data will be determined by both contribution to the scientific design, 
conduct, and interpretation of the study and by mutual agreement and will include 
selected members from investigational sites as well as Sponsor personnel.

18. APPENDICES 
18.1 Sample Processing and Shipment 
18.1.1 PK Sample Handling and Shipping 
Samples and Sample Log Forms will be shipped by the Investigators to the Bioanalytical central 
laboratory. Analysis will be performed by means of LC-MS/MS. Details on the analytical 
methodology, the method of validation, and the analytical within-study quality control 
procedures will be included in the clinical study report for this protocol. 
18.1.2 Sample Procurement and Processing 
For each sample, 4 mL of blood sample will be collected at the defined time points. The total 
volume of blood to be collected from each patient for PK analysis will be approximately 152 mL. 
Blood samples, 4 mL each, will be drawn into tubes containing K2EDTA anticoagulant. After 
procurement, samples should be kept in a cool environment, preferably in a container of ice water, 
until processing. Samples must be centrifuged within 30 minutes of collection. Following 
centrifugation (1500 g, 4℃, 15 minutes), the plasma will be transferred equally into two labelled 
polypropylene tubes via pipettes, and stored at -20℃within one hour of collection. 
18.1.3 Sample Shipment 
Samples will be shipped in accordance with the standard shipping procedures provided by a 
central lab.  
18.2 REFERENCE VALUES
