Bioequivalence of Empagliflozin and Metformin Given as a Fixed Dose Combination Compared to Single Tablets

Registration Number
NCT01844531
Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this trial is to establish bioequivalence of two fixed dose combination (FDC) tablets (containing medium dose empagliflozin/500 mg metformin \[Test 1\] and low dose empagliflozin/500 mg metformin \[Test 2\]) and of the single tablets (medium dose empagliflozin tablets + Glucophage® 500 mg tablet \[Reference 1\] and low dose empagliflozin tablet + Glucophage® 500 mg tablet \[Reference 2\]) when administered together after a high fat, high caloric meal.

The assessment of safety and tolerability will be an additional objective of this trial.
