Trial overview
Official title: A randomized, double-blind, single-dose, placebo controlled, 2-way cross-over study evaluating effect of albiglutide on cholecystokinin-induced gallbladder emptying in fasting healthy subjects
Trial description: Albiglutide, a novel analogue of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), has been developed and approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary objective of this study is to assess if a single dose of albiglutide can affect cholecystokinin-induced gallbladder emptying. To make this assessment, each study participant will receive a dose of albiglutide and a dose of placebo followed by cholecystokinin (CCK) infusion and ultrasound measurement of the gallbladder.The study will be comprised of two periods and 20 subjects. The screening visit will occur within 42 days of the start of Treatment Period 1. The Treatment Periods will be separated by a washout period of a minimum of 42 days. Subjects will return for a follow-up visit after 28 days following the last dose of albiglutide or placebo. The total duration of a subject’s participation from Screening to Follow-up will be approximately 17.5 weeks. This study is a post marketing commitment to the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA).

Timeframe: Day -1, Baseline Day 1(Pre-dose), Day 2, Day 3, and 15 minutes (-15 min) prior to dosing and 80 min post dosing on Day 4 in each treatment period and Follow-up (assessed up to a total of approximately 12 weeks)
Change from Baseline in heart rate
Timeframe: Day -1, Baseline Day 1(Pre-dose), Day 2, Day 3, and 15 minutes (-15 min) prior to dosing and 80 min post dosing on Day 4 in each treatment period and Follow-up (a total of approximately 12 weeks)
Number of participants with clinical chemistry and hematology abnormalities of potential clinical importance
Timeframe: Day -1 in each treatment period and Follow-up (at approximately Week 12)
Change from Baseline in electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters
Timeframe: Baseline (Day -1) and Day 4 in each treatment period, and at Follow-up (at approximately Week 12)
Part A: Number of participants with at least one non-serious adverse event (AE), serious adverse event (SAE), or drug-related adverse event
Timeframe: From Day -1 in treatment period 1 and up to Follow-up Visit (a total of approximately 12 weeks)
Number of participants for the indicated urinalysis parameters tested by dipstick
Timeframe: Day -1 and Follow-up (assessed up to a total of approximately 12 weeks)
