About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, 3-Way Crossover Pivotal Study to Assess the Bioequivalence of the Fixed Dose Combination Tablets of Canagliflozin and Metformin Extended Release (XR) (2 x 50 mg/500 mg) With Respect to the Individual Components of Canagliflozin (1 x 100 mg) and Metformin XR Tablet (2 x 500 mg) in Healthy Fed Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the bioequivalence of the fixed dose combination (two components combined in one tablet) of canagliflozin and metformin extended release (XR) tablet (dose of 2 X 50 mg/500 mg) with respect to the individual components of canagliflozin (1 x 100 mg) and metformin XR tablet (2 x 500 mg) in healthy fed participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized (the study medication is assigned by chance), open-label (physicians and participants know the identity of the assigned treatment), single-center, single-dose, 3-treatment, 3-way crossover (the same medications provided to all participants but in different sequence) study of canagliflozin (CANA) and metformin extended release (MET XR) combined in one tablet, in comparison with tablets of individual components. Two Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) will be evaluated during the study (two types of tablets). The tablets will be of the same strength (50 mg CANA/500 mg MET XR) and will be compared with the equal doses of the individual drugs: canagliflozin (1 x 100 mg tablet) and metformin XR (2 x 500 mg tablets). Thus, there will be 3 treatment periods in the study: Treatment A: "Reference" treatment of individual components. Treatment B: CANA/MET XR FDC, formulation 1; and Treatment C: CANA/MET XR FDC, formulation 2. Approximately 42 healthy adult participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatments groups, and then each group will receive all three treatments in different sequences (3-way crossover). The study will consist of 3 phases: a Screening Phase of approximately 3 weeks (Days -22 to -2), an Open-Label Treatment Phase consisting of 3 single-dose Treatment Periods of 5 days each (Days -1 through 4) separated by a washout of 10 to 14 days between Day 1 of each Treatment Period, and a Follow-up Phase occurring 7 to 10 days after the last study-related procedure on Day 4 of Treatment Period 3. The total duration of the study will be about 70 days for each participant.

What participants receive

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

  • Canagliflozin, 100 mgDrug

    Each tablet contains canagliflozin (CANA) of 100 mg to be taken orally (by mouth).

  • Metformin XR, 500 mgDrug

    Also called GLUMETZA®

    Each tablet contains metformin extended release (MET XR), 500 mg, to be taken orally (by mouth).

  • CANA/MET XR FDC, Formulation 1, 50 mg/500 mgDrug

    Each tablet contains 50 mg of canagliflozin and 500 mg of metformin HCl granulate, formulation 1, in release-controlling polymers to obtain the XR granulation, to be taken orally.

  • CANA/MET XR FDC, Formulation 2, 50 mg/500 mgDrug

    Each tablet contains 50 mg of canagliflozin and 500 mg of metformin HCl granulate, formulation 2, in release-controlling polymers to obtain the XR granulation, to be taken orally.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma concentration of canagliflozin following the single dose of drug administration

    Plasma concentrations of canagliflozin are used to evaluate how long canagliflozin stays in the body.

    Measured: Predose, (before tablet intake) up to 72 hours afterdose

  2. Plasma concentration of metformin following the single dose of drug administration

    Plasma concentrations of metformin are used to evaluate how long it stays in the body.

    Measured: Predose, up to 36 hours afterdose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: Screening, up to Day 10 of the follow-up period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Canagliflozin, 100 mg, Metformin XR, 500 mg and CANA/MET XR FDC, Formulation 1, 50 mg/500 mg in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC 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 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 17 Jun 2014. 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?

Plasma concentration of canagliflozin following the single dose of drug administration (time frame: Predose, (before tablet intake) up to 72 hours afterdose). The study lists 2 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 17 Jun 2014.
