NCT00961857

Brief Summary

A two-part study to demonstrate the bioequivalence of a single dose of the Final Market Image (FMI) of sitagliptin /metformin (50/500 and 50/1000 mg) Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) tablet and co-administration of a single dose of sitagliptin (50 mg) and metformin ( 500 or 1000 mg) as individual tablets. Subject will only participate in one part, receiving treatment A and B (Part I) or Treatment C and D (Part II).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve (AUC) after administration of sitagliptin/metformin (50/500 and 50/1000 mg/mg) FDC tablet and co-administration of corresponding doses of sitagliptin and metformin as individual tablets

    72 hours post dose

Secondary Outcomes (1)
