Bioequivalence of Two Liraglutide Formulations in Healthy Volunteers

January 12, 2015 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Randomized, Double-blind, Single-centre, Two-period, Cross-over Trial in Healthy Subjects Investigating the Bioequivalence Between the Phase 3a Formulation of Liraglutide (Formulation 4) and the Planned Phase 3b Formulation (Final Formulation 4)

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to test for bioequivalence of the phase 3a formulation of liraglutide (formulation 4) and the liraglutide formulation planned for phase 3b trials (final formulation 4).
