Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| AUC0-t of Vildagliptin and Metformin for the test and the reference products | up to 24 hours | The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to the last measured concentration |
| Cmax of Vildagliptin and Metformin for the test and reference products | up to 24 hours | The maximum concentration in plasma among observed concentrations at pre-specified time points |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| T1/2 of Vildagliptin and Metfomin for the test and the reference products | up to 24 hours | Plasma elimination half-life |
| AUC0-∞ of Vildagliptin and Metformin for the test and the reference products | up to 24 hours | The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to to infinite time |
| Number of treatment-related adverse events (AE) for the test and the reference products as assessed by guidance predefined in the protocol | through study completion, an average of 1 month | An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered the test or the reference product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. |
