Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate bioequivalence (BE) of a 5 mg saxagliptin/1000 mg metformin extended release (XR) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet (manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) relative to a coadministered 5 mg Onglyza tablet (saxagliptin, manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) and two 500 mg Glucophage XR tablets (metformin XR, manufactured in Evansville, Indiana) in the fed state in healthy subjects.

Detailed description

This study is designed to evaluate if the FDC tablet of 5 mg saxagliptin/1000 mg metformin extended release (manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) is bioequivalent to the coadministered 5 mg saxagliptin tablet plus 2 x 500 mg Glucophage XR tablets (manufactured in Evansville, Indiana)

Pre-assignment details

Participants underwent screening evaluations to determine eligibility within 21 days before dosing, and were admitted to the clinical facility the evening before dosing (Day -1). On Day 1 of Period 1, a total of 30 participants who met all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment sequences.

Population: All treated participants not discontinuing prior to end of study. 2 participants in Treatment A \& 1 in Treatment B were excluded due to the inability to estimate with acceptable accuracy a terminal slope for terminal phase concentration data. Treatment C administered only during Period 3, and this outcome measure was analyzed for Periods 1 and 2.

AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a subject administered an investigational product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs inpatient hospitalization (including elective surgery), results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an important medical event.

Time frame: AEs: from initiation of study drug administration on morning of Day 1/Period 1 through study discharge. SAEs: from date of written consent until 30 days after discontinuation of dosing or participation in study if last scheduled visit occurred later.

Population: All subjects who received at least one dose of study medication.
