Healthy Volunteer
Conditions
Brief summary
This single-center, non-randomized, open-label study will assess the pharmacokinetics of aleglitazar after administration of single and multiple oral doses in healthy Chinese volunteers. Subjects will receive a single oral dose of aleglitazar on Day 1 and repeated oral doses once daily from Day 5 to Day 14. Anticipated time on study, including screening and a 2-week follow-up, is up to 8 weeks.
