    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of PEITC
    Plasma concentration of PEITC during 24 hours after intake of Nutri-jelly will be measured and the highest concentration will be identified.
    Time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax)
    The duration to reach maximum plasma concentration of PEITC will be calculated.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Area under the curve of plasma concentration of PEITC and time
    Graph between plasma concentration and time will be plotted. The area under the curve will be calculated.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    This research aims to evaluate the absorption and elimination profile of a bioactive compound PEITC in the matrix of Nutri-jelly - a novel edible nutritious gel. Thus, the investigators conducted a pharmacokinetic study in 12 head and neck cancer survivors. After consumed a serving of Nutri-jelly containing 20 mg PEITC, plasma levels of PEITC at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours were specifically measured by ammonia derivatization and analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed.
    Detailed Description
    β-phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is a phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables with anti-cancer properties in vitro and in vivo. However, its pharmacokinetic profile in cancer survivors were unknown. A pharmacokinetic study was conducted in head and neck cancer survivors to evaluate the absorption and elimination profile of PEITC in the matrix of Nutri-jelly - a novel edible nutritious gel. Twelve head and neck cancer survivors consumed a serving of Nutri-jelly containing 20 mg PEITC. Plasma levels of PEITC at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours were specifically measured by ammonia derivatization and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed. Pharmacokinetic parameters including Cmax, Tmax, half-life, clearance were analyzed.
