About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Fixed Sequence Study to Investigate the Potential for Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Interaction Between Single-Dose Metformin and Multiple-Dose Canagliflozin in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of the study is to investigate the potential interaction between multiple oral doses of canagliflozin and a single oral dose of metformin in healthy adult volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (volunteers will know the names of treatments they are assigned) single-center study of canagliflozin and metformin in healthy adult volunteers. Canagliflozin (a Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 inhibitor) is currently under development to lower blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and metformin is an approved treatment for patients with T2DM. Canagliflozin will be administered orally (by mouth) as a single 300-mg tablet on Days 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 and metformin will be administered orally as two 1,000 mg tablets on Days 1 and 8. Both canagliflozin and metformin tablets will be taken with 8 ounces (240 mL) of water.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Canagliflozin/Metformin in people with Healthy, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 29 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Plasma concentrations of canagliflozin (time frame: At protocol-specified times up to Day 11). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01273571, 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 29 Jul 2013.
