Bioequivalence Study of Metformin Component of Canagliflozin and Metformin Fixed Dose Combination Immediate Release (IR) Tablet Comparing With Metformin IR Tablet Co-administered With Canagliflozin Tablet in Healthy Fed and Fasted Participants

Overview

The purpose of this study to evaluate the bioequivalence (is the amount same in both the pills) of metformin component of the canagliflozin and metformin immediate release (IR) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet compared with the metformin IR tablet co-administered with canagliflozin tablet in healthy fed and fasted participants.

This is a randomized (study medication assigned to participants by chance), open-label (identity of study drug will be known to volunteer and study staff), single-center, single-dose, 4-treatment, 4-way crossover (method used to switch participants from one study group to another in a clinical trial, like the flip of a coin) study in healthy adult participants. The study will have 3 phases: Screening Phase (approximately 3 weeks, Day -22 to Day -2), Open-Label Treatment Phase (consisting of 4 single-dose treatment periods of 3 days each \[Day -1 to Day 2\], each separated by a washout period of 7 days) and Follow-up Phase (5 to 7 days after last study-related procedure on Day 2 of treatment period 4). All eligible participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatment sequences and will receive 2 treatments under fasting and 2 treatments under fed conditions. Blood samples will be collected at pre-dose and post-dose of study treatment, for understanding the pharmacokinetics (how the drug is absorbed in the body, distributed within the body, and how it is removed from the body over time). Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
