Effect of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Ertugliflozin and Its Fixed-Dose Combinations Ertugliflozin/Sitagliptin and Ertugliflozin/Metformin.

ABSTRACT: Ertugliflozin, an inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2, is approved in the United States and European Union for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults, both as monotherapy and as part of fixed-dose combination (FDC) therapies with either sitagliptin or immediate-release metformin. The effect of a standard, high-fat breakfast on the pharmacokinetics of the highest strengths of ertugliflozin monotherapy (15 mg), ertugliflozin/sitagliptin FDC (15-/100-mg), and ertugliflozin/metformin FDC (7.5-/1000-mg) tablets was evaluated. In 3 separate open-label, 2-period, 2-sequence, single-dose, crossover studies, 14 healthy subjects per study were randomized to receive either ertugliflozin monotherapy or FDC tablets comprising ertugliflozin and sitagliptin or ertugliflozin and metformin unde
