Bioequivalence Study of the Fixed Dose Combination of 5 mg Saxagliptin/1000 mg Metformin XR (Manufactured in Mt Vernon, IN) Relative to 5 mg of Onglyza and 2 × 500 mg Glucophage XR

Bioequivalence Study of the Fixed Dose Combination of 5 mg Saxagliptin/1000 mg Metformin XR (Manufactured in Mt Vernon, IN) Relative to 5 mg of Onglyza and 2 × 500 mg Glucophage XR Coadministered to Healthy Subjects in the Fed State and Steady State Pharmacokinetic Assessment of the Fixed Dose Combination of 5 mg Saxagliptin/1000 mg Metformin XR

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate bioequivalence (BE) of a 5 mg saxagliptin/1000 mg metformin extended release (XR) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet (manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) relative to a coadministered 5 mg Onglyza tablet (saxagliptin, manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) and two 500 mg Glucophage XR tablets (metformin XR, manufactured in Evansville, Indiana) in the fed state in healthy subjects.

This study is designed to evaluate if the FDC tablet of 5 mg saxagliptin/1000 mg metformin extended release (manufactured in Mt Vernon, Indiana) is bioequivalent to the coadministered 5 mg saxagliptin tablet plus 2 x 500 mg Glucophage XR tablets (manufactured in Evansville, Indiana)
