The purpose of this study was to assess bioequivalence (BE) of newly developed Glucophage® XR (GXR) reduced mass (RM) tablet (metformin hydrochloride 500 milligrams (mg) test tablet) and marketed Glucophage ® XR tablet (metformin hydrochloride 500 mg reference tablet) following single oral dose administration under fasted and fed conditions by comparing pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability between test and reference in healthy participants.

Other names: Metformin hydrochloride
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
Area under the plasma concentration vs time curve from time zero to the last sampling time t at which the concentration was at or above the lower limit of quantification (LLQ). AUC0-t was to be calculated according to the mixed log-linear trapezoidal rule.
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
Cmax was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
Time frame: From Day 1 up to 3 weeks
An Adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug or worsening of pre-existing medical condition, whether or not related to study drug. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. An AE was considered as 'treatment emergent' if it occurred after the first drug administration of each period or if it was present prior to drug administration but exacerbated after the drug administration. TEAEs included both Serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs.
Time frame: From Day 1 up to 3 weeks
Concomitant medications included medications administered from the first administration of study interventions to the end of observation.
Time frame: From Day1 (baseline) up to 3 weeks
The laboratory measurements included hematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis and Blood Sugar Test (BST). Number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in laboratory values were reported. Clinically Significance was decided by investigator.
Time frame: From Day 1 (baseline) up to 3 weeks
The 12-lead ECG recordings were obtained after 5 minutes of rest in a semi-supine position. ECG recordings included rhythm, ventricular rate, PR interval, QRS duration, QT and QTc intervals. Number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in 12-lead ECG findings were reported. Clinically significance was decided by investigator.
Time frame: From Day 1 (baseline) up to 3 weeks
Vital sign assessment included blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature and respiration rate. Number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in vital signs were reported. Clinically significance was decided by investigator.
Time frame: From Day 1 (baseline) up to 3 weeks
Physical examination included assessments of the skin, lungs, cardiovascular system, abdomen (liver and spleen), and the symptoms reported by the participant. Number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in vital signs were reported. Clinically significance was decided by investigator.
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
AUC0-inf was calculated by combining AUC0-t and AUC extra. AUC extra represents an extrapolated value obtained by Clast/ lambda z, where Clast is the calculated plasma concentration at the last sampling time point at which the measured plasma concentration is at or above the Lower Limit of quantification (LLQ) and lambda z is the apparent terminal rate constant determined by log-linear regression analysis of the measured plasma concentrations of the terminal log-linear phase.
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
The ratio of AUClast to AUCinf were reported.
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
Terminal half-life is the time measured for the concentration to decrease by one half. Terminal half-life calculated by natural log 2 divided by lambda z.
Time frame: Part 1 (fasted): Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose. Part 2 (fed): Pre-dose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 24 and 32 hours post dose
Time to reach the maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
