Inclusion criteria

* Patients with confirmed type 2 diabetes for at least 1 year and treated with metformin as a single treatment or in combination with one other oral anti diabetic for at least 2 months prior to screening. * Body mass index between ≥19 and ≤42 kg/m2. * Haemoglobin (Hb) A1c ≥6.5% and ≤9.5% at enrolment.

Exclusion criteria

* History of cardiovascular disease, eg, left ventricular hypertrophy, uncontrolled hypertension, paroxysmal or persistent cardiac arrhythmia or ischemic heart disease. * Systolic blood pressure \>160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>95 mmHg at screening * Use of amiodarone within 3 months prior to screening and the use of potent CYP450 inhibitors

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
evaluate the pharmacokinetics of digoxin after a single dose when administered alone and in combination with AZD1656 at steady state, by assessment of AUC and Cmax of digoxinSerial PK blood samples will be taken on days 4-8 during the treatment periods

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
evaluate the safety of AZD1656 in combination with digoxin by assessment of electrocardiogram, weight, pulse, blood pressure, laboratory variables (including 7-point glucose), physical examination and adverse events.Safety assessments will be monitored throughout the study, from screening visit until follow up visit.
describe the pharmacokinetics of AZD1656 and its metabolite during concomitant digoxin administration by assessment of AUC(0-24), Cmax, Ctrough, tmax, t1/2 and CL/F (AZD1656 only).Serial PK blood samples will be taken on days 4-8 during the treatment periods
describe the pharmacokinetics of digoxin when administered alone or in combination with AZD1656 by assessment of tmax and t1/2.Serial PK blood samples will be taken on days 4-8 during the treatment periods
