Summary
Study start date: June 6, 2025
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.The study is designed to compare two medications, Azilsartan Medoxomil and Edarbi®, both used to treat high blood pressure, in healthy adults. It aims to understand how these drugs are processed in the body, how safe they are, and how well people tolerate them. This research is important because Azilsartan Medoxomil and Edarbi® work similarly to other blood pressure medications but may have fewer side effects, making them a potentially better option for managing high blood pressure and preventing heart and kidney problems. Participants in this study will take a single oral dose of either Azilsartan Medoxomil or Edarbi® on an empty stomach during each of the four study periods. The study will measure how much of the drug is present in the blood over time to compare the two medications' effects. As the study involves healthy participants, the risks are minimal, focusing on observing any potential side effects and overall drug tolerability.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Male or nonpregnant, nonlactating female volunteers, assessed as healthy by the Investigator or medically qualified designee based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate, body temperature) assessment, laboratory tests results (clinical chemistry, hematology, serology, and urinalysis), and cardiac monitoring (12-lead ECG). 2.

Body Mass Index (BMI) 18,5-30 kg/m2 inclusive and weight ≥50 kg and ≤ 120kg. 6. A valid (performed in accordance with the Clinical investigational site's standard operating procedures \[SOPs\]) negative SARS CoV 2 test result at Screening and upon each admission to the clinical unit. 7. Male volunteers (with the exception of vasectomised males) must be willing and able to use one of the following adequate methods of contraception from the first administration of the IMP until at least 30 days after the last administration of the IMP: * abstinence from penile-vaginal intercourse; * barrier contraception, i.e., a male condom plus spermicide (foam, gel, cream) when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a woman of childbearing potential. 8. Male volunteers must be willing to refrain from donating sperm from the first administration of the IMP until at least 30 days after the last administration of the IMP. 9. Female volunteers of childbearing potential (a woman is considered fertile following menarche and until becoming postmenopausal unless permanently sterile) who are using one of the adequate methods of contraception listed below consistently and correctly, must be willing and able to continue the use of the chosen adequate birth control method from 28 days prior to the first administration of the IMP until 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever takes longer, after the last administration of the IMP in this study: * barrier contraception i.e., a male condom or female cervical cap plus spermicide (foam, gel, cream); * vasectomised partner; * abstinence from penile-vaginal intercourse; * bilateral tubal occlusion; * non-hormonal intrauterine device (IUD). 10. Female volunteers of non-childbearing potential, defined as: * postmenopausal (history of amenorrhea for ≥52 weeks without an alternative medical cause and confirmation by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level consistent with post-menopause) or * surgically sterile (documented hysterectomy and/or bilateral salpingectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy). Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of, or ongoing allergy/hypersensitivity to any of the study IMPs, or components thereof, or drug or any other allergy. 2. Known history or presence of malignant disease. 3. History or presence of angioedema, cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, endocrine, hematological, neuromuscular, psychiatric, auto-immune, or neurological disorders; history or presence of cerebrovascular diseases (including cerebral circulation failure), or any other condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would jeopardize the safety of the subject or impact the validity of the study results. 4. Conditions associated with circulating blood volume decrease (including vomiting and diarrhea). 5. Any abnormalities in laboratory or instrumental test results which are outside the reference range of the Clinical investigational site. 6. Creatinine clearance \<80 mL/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault equation. 7. Systolic blood pressure \< 100 mmHg or \> 130 mmHg; diastolic blood pressure \< 70 mmHg or \> 90 mmHg; pulse \< 60 bpm or \> 90 bpm. 8. Medical history of surgery on gastrointestinal tract and hepatobiliary system (excluding appendectomy). 9. Adherence to special types of diets (such as vegetarian, vegan, with salt restriction within 30 days prior to the first administration of the IMP) and lifestyle (work at night, extreme physical activity). 10. Difficulty fasting or consuming standard meals. 11. No suitable veins for cannulation or repeated venepuncture. 12. Any other condition that is capable of significantly altering the absorption, metabolism, or elimination of drugs; constituting a risk when taking the IMP; or interfering with the interpretation of data, as judged by the Investigator. 13. Use of any prescribed or nonprescribed medication including herbal remedies, vitamins, and minerals within 14 days prior to the first administration of the IMP or longer if the medication has a long half-life. 14.
