A Multiple Dose Investigational Drug Study in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (MK-0941-005)

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: MK0941
Registration Number
NCT00511667
Lead Sponsor
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
Brief Summary

A multiple dose study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of an investigational drug in patients with type 2 diabetes. The primary hypotheses of the study are that multiple daily MK-0941 in subjects with T2DM with or without adequate control on metformin will be sufficiently safe and well tolerated to permit continued clinical investigation.
