Effects of Carbohydrate in Diet and Supplements on the Gastrointestinal Tolerability of LIK066

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Obesity
Interventions
Drug: LIK066
Dietary Supplement: Carbohydrate 50%
Dietary Supplement: Carbohydrate 8%
Dietary Supplement: Carbohydrate 25%
Dietary Supplement: Psyllium
Dietary Supplement: Carbohydrate 0%
Dietary Supplement: Calcium carbonate
Registration Number
NCT03198767
Lead Sponsor
Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to determine if LIK066 taken with a meal containing low carbohydrate is associated with less diarrhea compared to a high carbohydrate meal and to assess the potential effects of supplements such as psyllium or calcium carbonate on alleviating diarrhea associated with LIK066.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Episodes of Diarrhea (Part A and Part B)24 hours on Day 3 of each treatment period

Episodes of diarrhea is defined as the total number of stools with a Bristol Stool Chart (BSC) Score of 6 or 7 on day 3 of each treatment period. BSC is frequently used as a measure of consistency, and a score of 6 or 7 (pourable or watery stool) is considered abnormal.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Average Stool pH (Part A and Part B)24 hours on Day 3 of each treatment period

Average PH of Stool at day 3

Average Consistency With Bristol Stool Chart (Part A and Part B)24 hours on Day 3 of each treatment period

BSC is frequently used as a measure of consistency, ranging from score 1 (hard lumps) to 7 (watery stool).

Three-day Total Number of Episodes of Diarrhea (Part A and Part B)Day 1 to 3 of each treatment period

Episodes of diarrhea is defined as the total number of stools with a Bristol Stool Chart (BSC) Score of 6 or 7 on days 1 to 3 of each treatment period. BSC is frequently used as a measure of consistency, and a score of 6 or 7 (pourable or watery stool) is considered abnormal.

Average Stool Weight (Part A and Part B)24 hours on Day 3 of each treatment period

24 hour average stool weight on day 3
