What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • repaglinideDrug

    Subjects will receive 850 mg metformin alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) in the fasting state or 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) immediately prior to a standardised high fat meal on 4 separate dosing visits in varying order

  • metforminDrug

    Subjects will receive 850 mg metformin alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) in the fasting state or 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) immediately prior to a standardised high fat meal on 4 separate dosing visits in varying order

  • repaglinide and metformin combination tabletDrug

    Subjects will receive 850 mg metformin alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide alone on a fasting state, 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) in the fasting state or 2 mg repaglinide/850 mg metformin (NN4440 2/850) immediately prior to a standardised high fat meal on 4 separate dosing visits in varying order

What is being measured

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

  1. Fasting repaglinide and metformin Area under the Curve (AUC) following NN4440 administration

  2. Fasting repaglinide and metformin Area under the Curve (AUC) following individual administration

  3. Fasting repaglinide and metformin Cmax (maximum drug concentration) following NN4440 administration

  4. Fasting repaglinide and metformin Cmax (maximum drug concentration) following individual administration

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Repaglinide and metformin tmax (time to maximum) following individual administration fasting state

  2. Repaglinide and metformin tmax (time to maximum) following NN4440 administration fasting state

  3. Physical examinations

  4. Vital signs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing repaglinide, metformin and repaglinide and metformin combination tablet in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 2 sites 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 4 inclusion and 8 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 10 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Fasting repaglinide and metformin Area under the Curve (AUC) following NN4440 administration. The study lists 4 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 NCT01489644, 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 10 Feb 2017.
