• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Chinese healthy male or non-pregnant, non-lactating female subject, age ≥ 18 years at the first screening examination / visit.
• Body Mass Index (BMI): ≥ 19 to \<28 kg / m\*2 , with body weight ≥ 50 kg.
• Results of HbA1c value are within the normal range (4.0-6.0%, inclusive).

This applies for the time phase between signing of the informed consent form and the last visit. The acceptable methods of contraception available to men include, for example (e.g.) condoms with or without a spermicidal agent; the acceptable methods of contraception available to women include e.g. (a) diaphragm or cervical cap with spermicide; (b) intra-uterine device; (c) hormone-based contraception (only for the female partners of male subjects) One method has to be used by the man and one method by the female partner. No need to use two methods at the same time if subject or his female partner has been surgically sterilized ,
