Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Ertugliflozin (PF-04971729, MK-8835) is a new compound proposed for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability along with the pharmacokinetics of single escalating doses of ertugliflozin under fed and fasted conditions in healthy volunteers.
