a study on the effects of ly2409021 on the electrical impulses of the heart

Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Summary: part a: the purpose of part a of the study is to look at the electrocardiogram (ecg) effects due to blood sugar changes after a meal compared to when ly2409021 is also given with a meal. part b: the purpose of part b is to evaluate the effect of ly2409021, when given at a dose level much higher than what would normally be given, on the electrical activity of the heart as measured by ecg in relation to placebo and moxifloxacin.

this is a 2 part study. part a is a single-dose study to compare the effects of a meal on glucose, insulin and qt in healthy participants with and without ly2409021. part b of this study is a randomized, 3-period, crossover design, in which participants and investigators are blinded to placebo and ly2409021, and will assess the electrophysiological effects of a single supratherapeutic dose of ly2409021 compared to a positive control (moxifloxacin) and placebo.
