Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Saxagliptin in Adult Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Inadequate Glycemic Control (NCT NCT00698932)

NCT ID: NCT00698932

Last Updated: 2011-09-21

Results Overview

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). HbA1c is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. HbA1c data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline , Week 24

Population: Randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of double-blind treatment. To be included in analysis: change from baseline to Wk 24 LOCF for efficacy, subjects must have had a baseline and at least 1 post-baseline efficacy measurement. If participant received rescue medication, that measurement must have been taken before rescue.

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). HbA1c is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. HbA1c data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

Population: Randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of double-blind treatment. To be included in analysis: change from baseline to Wk 24 LOCF for efficacy, subjects must have had a baseline and at least 1 post-baseline efficacy measurement. If participant received rescue medication, that measurement must have been taken before rescue.

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF), Full Analysis set). FPG is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. FPG data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline , Week 24

Population: MMTT was measured on a subset of patients in China cohort only at baseline and Wk 24. Randomized subjects, who took at least 1 dose of double-blind treatment to be included in analysis: change from baseline to Wk 24 (LOCF), must have had baseline and post-baseline data. Measurements observed on and after rescue medication were excluded.

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in PPG AUC achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). Trapezoidal method was used to compute AUC under the 3 hour PPG curve. Change from baseline for each subject is computed as the week 24 value minus the baseline value.PPG data were excluded on and after rescue medication
