    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

  2. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for metformin during treatment with fixed dose combination tablet of metformin plus saxagliptin compared with individual metformin XR and saxaglitpin tablets

    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

  3. Area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) for saxagliptin during treatment with fixed dose combination tablet of metformin plus saxagliptin compared with individual metformin XR and saxaglitpin tablets

    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

  4. Area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) for metformin during treatment with fixed dose combination tablet of metformin plus saxagliptin compared with individual metformin XR and saxaglitpin tablets

    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for 5-hydroxy saxagliptin

    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

  2. Area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) for 5-hydroxy saxagliptin

    Measured: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

  3. Safety and tolerability assessment based on medical review of AE reports:physical examination, ECG, heart rate, blood pressure, lab test

    Assessment for 5 mg saxagliptin co-administered with up to 1000 mg metformin XR given either separately, or as a single FDC tablet.

    Measured: Study duration for individual subject (up to 34 days) when the safety data are collected

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Saxagliptin 5 mg, Metformin XR 500 mg and Mertformin XR 2 x 500 mg in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(T2DM), run by AstraZeneca 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 13 Dec 2013. 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?

Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for saxagliptin during treatment with fixed dose combination tablet of metformin plus saxagliptin compared with individual metformin XR and saxaglitpin tablets (time frame: Plasma samples at 0, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose). 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?
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 13 Dec 2013.
