Assess Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability in Healthy Chinese Volunteers After Oral Doses of Saxagliptin

July 8, 2009 updated by: AstraZeneca

An Open Label, Pharmacokinetic Study of Single and Multiple Doses of 5 mg Saxagliptin in Healthy Chinese Subjects Living in China

Saxagliptin is a new investigational medication being developed for treatment of type 2 diabetes. This Phase I study is designed to assess the pharmacokinetics of saxagliptin and its pharmacologically active metabolite, BMS-510849, following single and multiple oral doses of 5 mg saxagliptin in healthy Chinese subjects.
