A Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of Once-Daily and Twice-Daily Dosing With Canagliflozin in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Registration Number
NCT01286103
Lead Sponsor
Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of canagliflozin on glucose levels in the blood and urine when taken at 2 dose levels as a once-daily or twice-daily dosing regimen in healthy adult volunteers

Detailed Description

This is an open-label (volunteers will know the names of treatments they are assigned), single-center study of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754) in healthy adult volunteers. Canagliflozin (a Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 inhibitor) is currently under development to lower blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients in Cohort 1 will be randomized to receive Treatment A (one 300-mg tablet orally, by mouth \[PO\] once daily for 5 days) followed 10 days later by Treatment B (one 50-mg and one 100-mg tablet PO twice daily for 5 days) or Treatment B followed by Treatment A. Patients in Cohort 2 will be randomized to receive Treatment C (one 100-mg tablet PO once daily for 5 days) followed 10 days later by Treatment D (one 50-mg tablet PO twice daily for 5 days) or Treatment D followed by Treatment C.
