NCT01658514

Brief Summary

This study evaluated how a single dose of delayed-release metformin (Met DR) behaves in subjects with normal kidney function, mild kidney dysfunction, moderate kidney dysfunction, or severe kidney dysfunction. The safety and tolerability of Met DR was also examined. In addition, this study compared the behavior of a single dose of Met DR with that of extended-release metformin (Met XR) and placebo in subjects with the varying levels of kidney function described above.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • AUC (0-t) of Plasma Metformin

    AUC (0-t) = Area under the curve from the time of dosing (0 h) to the time of the last quantifiable concentration following dose administration

    from the time of dosing (0 h) to 72 hours postdose

  • Cmax of Plasma Metformin

    Cmax = Maximum concentration from the time of dosing (0 h) to the time of the last quantifiable metformin concentration following dose administration

    from the time of dosing (0 h) to 72 hours postdose

  • Correlation of Placebo-adjusted Change From Pre-dose Value in Lactate Versus Metformin Concentration

    To determine the exposure-response relationship of metformin and plasma lactate concentrations

    from the time of dosing (0 h) to 24 hours postdose
