NCT00558909

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the current study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of BI 44847 in male and female patients with type 2 diabetes following oral administration of repeated doses of 100 mg b.i.d, 400 mg b.i.d. and 800 mg b.i.d. over 28 days. A secondary objective is the exploration of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of BI 44847 after multiple dosing, including assessment of steady state.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

In case of 2 oral hypoglycaemic agents, at least one of these may be taken at no more than 50% of its maximum dose;
  • Age = \> 21 and Age = \<70 years (female hysterectomised and male patients);
  • Age = \>55 and Age = \<70 years (female postmenopausal patients);
  • BMI = \>18.5 and BMI = \<40 kg/m2 (Body Mass Index);
  • Signed and dated written informed consent prior to admission to the study in accordance with GCP and the local legislation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Treatment with insulin, glitazones, or more than one oral hypoglycaemic agent (except if 2 agents and at least one of them not taken at more than 50% of maximum dose);
  • Fasted blood glucose \> 240 mg/dl on two consecutive days during wash-out; HbA1c \> 8.5 % at screening;
  • Clinically relevant concomitant diseases other than type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidaemia and medically treated hypertension;
  • History of relevant allergy/hypersensitivity;
  • Marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval;
  • History of additional risk factors for TdP;
  • Any laboratory value outside the reference range and the clinical relevance is not acceptable in the opinion of the investigator, or the value is more than 3 times higher than the upper limit of the reference range;
  • Concomitant medication except for acetylsalicylic acid, statins, antihypertensives (diuretics not allowed), beta-blockers for BPH and occasional use of paracetamol (doses of no more than 1000 mg; no more than 2000 mg per day; no more than 2 days per week);
  • Change of drug dosing of allowed co-medication \< the last 6 weeks; Intake of any medication \< 5 half-lives of the respective drug prior to first administration of study medication or during the trial, except allowed co-medication;
  • Use of grapefruit (or its juice) \< 10 days prior to first administration of study medication or during the trial;
  • Participation in another trial with an investigational drug \< two months prior to first administration of study medication or during the trial; Smoker;
