Trial Outcomes & Findings for Genetic Basis for Variation in the Renal Elimination of Metformin (NCT NCT00187720)

NCT ID: NCT00187720

Last Updated: 2013-01-10

Results Overview

To test whether individuals with genetic variants of the human organic cation transporter, OCT2, exhibit altered renal elimination of metformin we will measure the difference in renal clearance between reference and variant groups.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 24 hours

Population: Analysis was per protocol. The sample size of 23 subjects will enable us to detect a significant difference (at the p \< 0.05 level; α = 0.05, β = 0.80) in the renal clearance of metformin between individuals who are homozygous for the reference OCT2 and those who carry the OCT2 variant A270S allele.

To test whether individuals with genetic variants of the human organic cation transporter, OCT2, exhibit altered renal elimination of metformin we will measure the difference in renal clearance between reference and variant groups.
