A Randomized, Open-label, Multiple Dosing, Three-way Crossover Clinical Trial to Investigate the Pharmacokinetic Drug-drug Interaction of Gemigliptin and Metformin After Oral Administration in Healthy Mexican Male Subjects
Abstract
This is an open, randomized (randomization ratio: 1:1), multiple dose, three way, three period cross over study to assess the potential for drug drug interactions between gemigliptin (a DPP-IV inhibitor mainly metabolized by CYP3A4) and metformin in a sample of healthy Mexican volunteers, aimed to determine whether the observed lack of drug-drug interactions between gemigliptin and metformin in the Korean population is reproducible in an ethnically different population characterized by a significant difference in the frequency of CYP3A4 polymorphisms associated with decreased enzymatic activity, such as CYP3A4\*1b, in comparison with Asian populations.
Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2.
Primary outcome: Gemigliptin AUCτ,ss Geometric Mean Ratio (and 90%CI).
Enrollment: 34 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 34 participants or records.
