Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast) of Metformin
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.

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Metformin
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.

Frequently asked questions about Glucophage RM Test

What is Glucophage RM Test?

Glucophage RM Test is an investigational small molecule developed by Merck KGaA. It has been studied in a Phase 1 bioequivalence trial in healthy adult volunteers in South Korea. The specific therapeutic indication for this asset has not been disclosed, and it remains in clinical development rather than approved for marketing.

Who makes Glucophage RM Test?

Glucophage RM Test is developed by Merck KGaA, which trades over the counter in the United States under the ticker MKGAF. Merck KGaA is the sponsor associated with the clinical program for this asset.

What phase is Glucophage RM Test in?

Glucophage RM Test is in Phase 1 clinical development. One Phase 1 trial has been completed, and no trials are currently active. The program has not been approved by the FDA, so Glucophage RM Test remains an investigational product rather than a marketed medicine.

What clinical trials is Glucophage RM Test in?

Glucophage RM Test has been evaluated in one completed Phase 1 study, NCT04684420, titled the GXR RM (Glucophage Extended Release Reduced Mass) 500 mg Korea Bioequivalence Study. It enrolled 81 healthy adult volunteers in South Korea, used a randomized controlled design, and included both male and female participants aged 19 years and older.

Is Glucophage RM Test the same as Glucophage XR RM Test?

Yes, Glucophage RM Test is also known as Glucophage XR RM Test. The two names refer to the same Merck KGaA asset, which has been studied in a Phase 1 bioequivalence trial of the extended release reduced mass 500 mg formulation in healthy volunteers in South Korea.

What is Glucophage RM Test used for?

Glucophage RM Test has been studied in healthy volunteers rather than in patients with a disclosed disease. Its Phase 1 trial, NCT04684420, enrolled 81 healthy adults in South Korea to assess bioequivalence of the 500 mg extended release reduced mass formulation. No therapeutic indication has been disclosed for this asset.
