A Study to Assess the Bioequivalence of 2 Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) Tablets of Canagliflozin and Metformin Immediate Release (IR) (50 mg/1,000 mg) With Respect to the Individual Components of Canagliflozin (1 x 100 mg) and Metformin IR Tablets (2 x 1,000 mg) in Healthy Volunteers

Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C.64 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the bioequivalence of fixed dose combination (FDC) tablets of canagliflozin and metformin immediate release (IR) in comparison with the individual components of canagliflozin and metformin IR.

This is an open-label (identity of study drug will be known to volunteer and study staff), single-center study to evaluate the bioequivalence of canagliflozin and metformin IR when administered orally (by mouth) as individual components (ie, separate tablets of canagliflozin and metformin IR) (Treatment A) and when administered as fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets (ie, canagliflozin and metformin IR contained in the same tablet) (Treatment B). Healthy volunteers participating in the study will be randomly (by chance) assigned to receive Treatment A followed by Treatment B or Treatment B followed by Treatment A with a washout period of approximately 15 days between treatments.

Interventions

Treatment A: Canagliflozin: Type = 1, unit = mg, number = 100, form = tablet, route = oral use + metformin IR: Type = 2, unit = mg, number = 1000, form = tablet, route = oral use. One canagliflozin tablet and 2 metformin IR tablets taken orally (by mouth) on Day 1 of Treatment Period 1 followed 10-15 days later by Treatment B (canagliflozin/metformin IR FDC): Type = 2, unit = mg, number = 50/1000, form = tablet, route = oral use. Two canagliflozin/metformin IR FDC tablets taken orally on Day 1 of Treatment Period 2

B (canagliflozin/metformin IR FDC tablets / A (canagliflozin and metformin IR individual tablets)DRUG

Treatment B (canagliflozin/metformin IR FDC): Type = 2, unit = mg, number = 50/1000, form = tablet, route = oral use. Two Canagliflozin/metformin IR FDC tablets taken orally on Day 1 of Treatment Period 1 followed 10-15 days later by Treatment A: Canagliflozin: Type = 1, unit = mg, number = 100, form = tablet, route = oral use + Metformin IR: Type = 2, unit = mg, number = 1000, form = tablet, route = oral use. One canagliflozin tablet and 2 metformin IR tablets taken orally (by mouth) on Day 1 of Treatment Period 2.
