A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Bioequivalence of HMPL-523 Tablets Produced by Two Different Manufacturers

This is a monocentric, randomized, open-label, single-dose, three-cycle, partial replicate clinical study designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile and bioequivalence of HMPL-523 Tablets produced by two different manufacturers in healthy subjects. This study plans to enroll 39 healthy Chinese subjects who will be randomized (1:1:1) into one of three sequence groups (Test [T]/Reference[R]/R group, RTR group and RRT group) to receive a single dose in each cycle with a washout period of at least 7 days, where T is the test product [i.e., HMPL-523 Tablets manufactured by Hutchison MediPharma (Suzhou) Limited.], and R is the reference product (i.e., HMPL-523 Tablets manufactured by WuXi STA).

The study includes three periods expected to last for 2 months: screening period, treatment period (for three cycles), and follow-up period
