Bioequivalence Study of Sitagliptin Hydrochloride / Metformin Hydrochloride Extended-release Film Coated Tablets 100 mg /1000 mg (FDC) in Healthy Adult Male and Female Subjects Under Fed Conditions.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the bioavailability and therefore to assess the bioequivalence of two different formulations of sitagliptin/metformin extended release tablets after a single oral dose administration under fed conditions.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Reference group After an overnight fasting of at least 10.00 hours prior to start of high-fat and high-calorie (approximately 800 to 1000 calories) breakfast, subjects were administered a single-dose of the reference product along with 250 mL of 20% glucose in water solution at room temperature. |
Drug: Sitagliptin/Metformin HCl 100/1000 mg extended release film-coated tablet
The subjects randomly received single oral dose of Sitagliptin/Metformin HCl 100/1000 mg extended release film-coated tablet

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [48 hours]
Evaluation of Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
- Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)0-t [48 hours]
Evaluation of Area Under Plasma Concentration-Time Curve from Time Zero to the Last Measurable Concentration
- Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) 0-inf (Metformin only) [48 hours]
Area Under Plasma Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinite
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) [1 week]
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of Sitagliptin /Metformin extended-release film coated tablets 100 mg /1000 mg (FDC) under fed conditions
