Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is a drug-drug interaction between multiple doses of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754) and a single dose of metformin. The safety and tolerability of canagliflozin will also be assessed.
Detailed Description
This study is an open-label (all volunteers and study staff know the identity of the assigned treatment), fixed sequence (all volunteers receive the same medication on the same days), single and multiple-dose study to determine how metformin (a blood glucose-lowering agent used to treat patients with diabetes) affects the pharmacokinetics (ie, how the body affects the drug) and the pharmacodynamics (ie, how the drug affects the body) of canagliflozin (a drug currently being investigated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus). The effect of canagliflozin on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of metformin will also be evaluated. The study will consist of 3 phases: a screening phase, an open-label treatment phase, and an end-of-study (or follow-up) phase. Each volunteer will participate in the study for approximately 39 days.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Volunteers must have a Body Mass Index (BMI \[weight (kg) / height (m)2\]) between 18.5 and 35 kg/m2, inclusive
- •Volunteers must be non-smokers or non-tobacco users
Exclusion Criteria
- •History of or currently active illness that the Investigator considers to be clinically significant and should exclude the volunteer from the study or that could interfere with the interpretation of the study results
Arms & Interventions
Metformin + canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754)
Each volunteer will receive a single dose of metformin on Day 1 followed by canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754) once daily on Days 4 to 7. On Day 8, volunteers will receive a single dose of canagliflozin in combination with a single dose of metformin.
Intervention: Metformin
Metformin + canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754)
Each volunteer will receive a single dose of metformin on Day 1 followed by canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754) once daily on Days 4 to 7. On Day 8, volunteers will receive a single dose of canagliflozin in combination with a single dose of metformin.
Intervention: Canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes

Time Frame: Up to Day 8
Cmax (a measure of the body's exposure to canagliflozin \[JNJ-28431754\]) will be compared before and after administration of a single dose of metformin.
The maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of metformin
Time Frame: Up to Day 8
Cmax (a measure of the body's exposure to metformin will be compared before and after administration of multiple doses of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754).
The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) for canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754)
Time Frame: Up to Day 8
AUC (a measure of the body's exposure to canagliflozin \[JNJ-28431754\]) will be compared before and after administration of a single dose of metformin.
The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) for metformin
Time Frame: Up to Day 8

24-hour urine glucose excretion
Time Frame: Up to Day 10
24-hour urine glucose excretion will be compared following a single dose of metformin, multiple doses of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754), or multiple doses of canagliflozin in combination with a single dose of metformin.
24-hour area under the serum glucose concentration-time curve
Time Frame: Up to Day 8
24-hour area under the serum glucose concentration-time curve will be compared following a single dose of metformin, multiple doses of canagliflozin (JNJ-28431754), or multiple doses of canagliflozin in combination with a single dose of metformin.
Secondary Outcomes
