Brief summary
This single-center, non-randomized, open-label, two treatment, two period, fixed sequence crossover study will investigate the effect of RG1662 treatment on the activity of key renal transporters in healthy male and female participants using metformin. The effect of RG1662 on other renal function parameters will also be explored.
Interventions
647 mg/mL of iohexol, equivalent to 300 mg/mL of iodine, used for assessment of glomerular function and other measure of renal function
Oral administration twice daily
Single 850 mg dose of metformin

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pharmacokinetic parameters of metformin derived from plasma and urine concentrations of metformin: area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum concentration (Cmax), renal clearance (CLr) [composite outcome measure] | Up to 9 weeks |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pharmacokinetic parameters derived from plasma concentrations of RG1662: AUC, Cmax, time to maximum concentration (Tmax), and minimum concentration (Ctrough)[composite outcome measure] | Up to 9 weeks |
| Pharmacodynamics: renal function measured by derivation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from plasma concentrations of iohexol. | Up to 9 weeks |
| Incidence of adverse events (AEs) | Up to 9 weeks |
