Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of AZD6793 on the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Metformin in Participants with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Detailed description
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-period cross-over study conducted at a single study centre to assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (ie, glucose lowering effect) of metformin in participants with T2DM when metformin is administered alone and in combination with multiple doses of AZD6793. This study will consist of 2 treatment periods separated by a washout period of 7 to 14 days. Approximately 28 eligible participants will be randomized to study intervention such that 24 evaluable participants complete the study (12 participants in each treatment sequence).
Interventions
Participants will receive oral doses of metformin with an interval of 12 hours between doses. The morning doses of metformin will be administered together with AZD6793 (Treatment A).
Participants will receive oral doses of metformin with an interval of 12 hours between doses. The morning doses of metformin will be administered together with AZD6793 placebo (Treatment B).

Study design
Masking description
Investigators, site staff, sponsor and their representatives will remain blinded to each participant's assigned study intervention throughout the course of the study. In order to maintain this blind, an otherwise uninvolved 3rd party will be responsible for the reconstitution and dispensation of all study intervention and will endeavor to ensure that there are no differences in time taken to dispense following randomization.
Intervention model description
Potential participants will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study up to 21 days prior to the start of the 14-day outpatient run-in period. Eligible participants will return to the study site for an outpatient visit on Day -14 and enter a 14-day outpatient run-in period. During this period they will receive metformin twice a day. Upon completion of the metformin run-in period, eligible participants will be admitted to the study site on Day -1 of Period 1 and randomized on Day 1 of Period 1 in a 1:1 ratio to one of two treatment sequences, AB or BA. AB being the test compound with metformin first and then metformin alone. BA being metformin alone first and then metformin with the test compound following their respective washout periods. After completion of Day 8 of Period 2, participants will receive a follow-up phone call about 5 days after their discharge.
