Pharmacokinetic Study of Vildagliptin in Patients With Renal Impairment

March 24, 2009 updated by: Novartis

An Open-Label, Parallel-Group Study to Determine the Single and Multiple Dose Pharmacokinetics of Vildagliptin and Its Metabolites in Mild, Moderate or Severe Renal Impaired Patients Compared to Age, Sex and Weight-Matched Healthy Volunteers Following Daily Doses of 50 mg Vildagliptin for 14 Days

This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of vildagliptin and its metabolites in patients with mild, moderate or severe renal impairment and healthy volunteers.

  • Subjects that have been enrolled in previous vildagliptin studies or other DPP
  • 4 inhibitor studies within six months
  • History of renal transplant or immunosuppressant therapy
  • Acute infections which may affect blood glucose control or other medical condition that may interfere with the interpretation of efficacy and safety data during the study
  • Any pre-existing or history of diabetic ulcer
