Brief Summary

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

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to investigate if liraglutide effects the QTc interval. Moxifloxacin (Avelox®) is administered as positive control.

Open-label / placebo

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

Following the double-blinded period and a wash-out period of 7 days, subjects are re-randomised to an open-label, parallel period where single dose of oral placebo is administered
