About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo Controlled, 2-Period Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effect of a Single Dose of JNJ-28431754 (Canagliflozin) on Gastrointestinal Glucose Absorption and Metabolism in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of canagliflozin on gastrointestinal glucose absorption in healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center study that will be conducted in two Parts (Part 1 and Part 2) to evaluate the effect of a single-dose of canagliflozin on the absorption of glucose in healthy volunteers. Part 1 is a pilot (small) study where responses to key pharmocodynamic (PD) parameters (ie, specific tests on blood samples to evaluate effects of no treatment on the body) will be measured to confirm the study design and number of volunteers planned for Part 2. Part 2 is the main study where volunteers will be randomized (assigned to study drug or placebo by chance) to receive double-blind (neither the volunteer or study physician will know the identity of the treatment assigned) treatment with canagliflozin or placebo (treatment identical in appearance to canagliflozin but contains no active drug) to evaluate the effect of canagliflozin compared to placebo on gastrointestinal glucose absorption using a radiolabeled glucose tracer approach (ie, where a radioactive substance is combined with glucose allowing the movement of glucose in the body to be traced or detected). Blood and urine samples will be collected from volunteers at pre-defined times during the study for PD analysis. Safety will be monitored during the study by evaluating adverse events and results from clinical laboratory tests, vital signs measurements, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and physical examinations performed. Volunteers in Part 1 will receive 240 ml of water 10 minutes before starting of the MMTT in each period (Periods 1 and 2). Volunteers in Part 2 will receive study drug 20 minutes prior to starting of the MMTT in treatment sequence 1 (a single 300-mg dose of canagliflozin in Period 1 followed by matching placebo in Period 2) or in treatment Sequence 2 (matching placebo in Period 1 followed by a single 300-mg dose of canagliflozin in Period 2). Periods 1 and 2 will be separated by 7 to 21 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. The amount of ingested glucose that is absorbed in systemic circulation

    Measured: During the first 1 and 2 hours after a standard mixed meal

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The amount of ingested glucose that is absorbed in systemic circulation

    Measured: 2-6 hr and 0-6 hr after a standard mixed meal

  2. Endogenous glucose production (EGP)

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points after a standard mixed meal

  3. Total and incremental plasma glucose and insulin area under the curve (AUC)

    Measured: 0-1, 0-2, 2-6, and 0-6 hours after a standard mixed meal

  4. Gastric emptying: peak level, time to peak level, and AUCs

    Measured: 0-6 hours after a standard mixed meal

  5. Rate of Peripheral glucose disposal (Rd)

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points after a standard mixed meal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study of Healthy, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 2 Jan 2012. 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 United States. 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?

The amount of ingested glucose that is absorbed in systemic circulation (time frame: During the first 1 and 2 hours after a standard mixed meal). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01173549, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Jan 2012.
