Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes
Healthy
Interventions
Drug: placebo
Drug: liraglutide
Registration Number
NCT00761540
Lead Sponsor
Novo Nordisk A/S
Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the blood concentration of liraglutide (pharmacokinetics) as well as the effects on glucose and insulin (pharmacodynamics) after 21 days of daily subcutaneous injections (injected under the skin) of liraglutide or placebo. In addition, the safety and tolerability of liraglutide will be observed.
