Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. RatioCmax (serum glucose) [Treatment period 1 and 2, Day-1 and Day 1: 10 minutes, 25 minutes, 40 minutes, 55 minutes, 1 hour 10 minutes, 1 hour 40 minutes, 2 hours 10 minutes, 3 hours 10 minutes, 4 hours 10 minutes]

    RatioCmax=Cmax,day1/ Cmax,day-1 Cmax,day-1: Maximum serum glucose after 75g sucrose loading on Day -1 Cmax,day1: Maximum serum glucose after 75g sucrose loading and single dose administration of study drug on Day 1

  2. RatioAUC(0-4) (serum glucose) [Treatment period 1 and 2, Day-1 and Day 1: 10 minutes, 25 minutes, 40 minutes, 55 minutes, 1 hour 10 minutes, 1 hour 40 minutes, 2 hours 10 minutes, 3 hours 10 minutes, 4 hours 10 minutes]

    RatioAUC(0-4)=AUC(0-4),day1/AUC(0-4),day-1 AUC (0-4),day1: AUC of serum glucose from time 0 to 4 hours on Day 1 AUC(0-4),day-1: AUC of serum glucose from time 0 to 4 hours on Day -1

  3. Cmax (plasma metformin) [Treatment period 1 and 2: Pre-dose, 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 15 hours, 24 hours]

    Cmax: Maximum observed drug concentration in measured matrix after single dose administration / maximum drug concentration in plasma after single dose administration

  4. AUC (0-tlast) (plasma metformin) [Treatment period 1 and 2: Pre-dose, 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 15 hours, 24 hours]

    AUC (0-tlast): AUC from time 0 to the last data point > LLOQ (lower limit of quantification)

  5. AUC (plasma metformin) [Treatment period 1 and 2: Pre-dose, 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 15 hours, 24 hours]

    AUC: Area under the concentration vs. time curve from zero to infinity after single (first) dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

The acceptable methods of contraception available to men include, for example (e.g.) condoms with or without a spermicidal agent; the acceptable methods of contraception available to women include e.g. (a) diaphragm or cervical cap with spermicide; (b) intra-uterine device; (c) hormone-based contraception (only for the female partners of male subjects) One method has to be used by the man and one method by the female partner. No need to use two methods at the same time if subject or his female partner has been surgically sterilized ,
