NCT00187681

Brief Summary

Specific Objectives:

  • To determine if individuals who carry a decreased or non-functional variant of OCT1 exhibit differences in the pharmacokinetics of metformin in comparison to individuals who carry the common allele.
  • To determine if individuals who carry the decreased or non-functional variants exhibit differences in the response to metformin in comparison to individuals who carry the common allele.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Blood Concentration-time of Metformin

    To test whether individuals with genetic variants of human organic cation transporter, OCT1, exhibit altered pharmacokinetics of metformin, the difference in AUC of blood concentration-time of metformin between reference and variant groups will be measured.

    0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 hours

  • Glucose Lowering Response to Metformin

    To test whether individuals with genetic variants of human organic cation transporter, OCT1, exhibit altered glucose lowering response to metformin we will measure the difference in area under the glucose concentrations-time curve (Glucose AUC) following oral glucose tolerance test.

    0 to 180 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Drug: Metformin

Interventions

2 doses of Metformin Day 1 1000mg, Day 2 850 mg

Also known as: Dimethylguanylguanidine, Glucophage
OCT1-reference GroupOCT1-variant Group
