About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Single-Blind, Three-Period Crossover Study Examining the Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of Concomitantly Administered Repaglinide and Metformin Versus Combination Tablet Dosing (NN4440) in Fed Healthy Male Volunteers

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the bioequivalence of repaglinide and metformin combination tablet versus repaglinide and metformin as coadministered tablets after meal.

The trial is designed as a three-period, six-sequence, single-dose, crossover pharmacokinetic trial where the trial participant is randomised to one of six possible treatment periods (Williams design). The trial participant will receive one single dose of each trial product in varying order.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. AUC0-t and Cmax (after repaglinide 2.0 mg and metformin 500 mg as co-administered tablets and combination tablet dosing under fed state)

    Measured: 24hr profile after single dose of trial drug in each treatment period

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Repaglinide AUC(0-24 & 0-∞) and Cmax after combination tablet (repaglinide 1.0 mg/metformin 500 mg) during fed state

    Measured: 24hr profile after single dose of trial drug in each treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing repaglinide and metformin combination tablet, repaglinide and metformin in people with Diabetes and Healthy, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

AUC0-t and Cmax (after repaglinide 2.0 mg and metformin 500 mg as co-administered tablets and combination tablet dosing under fed state) (time frame: 24hr profile after single dose of trial drug in each treatment period). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2015.
