Summary

This is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel group, repeat-dose, study of 26 weeks duration to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamic response of albiglutide liquid drug product relative to the commercial lyophilized drug product. The study will specifically evaluate the potential for immunogenicity (example \[e.g.\] incidences of anti-drug antibodies \[ADA\]) and injection site reactions (ISRs).

Albiglutide is a novel analogue of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) with a sufficiently long half-life to permit once a week injection. Currently, lyophilized albiglutide and the diluent are provided in a dual chamber cartridge (DCC), single-dose pen injector, requiring reconstitution prior to use. A liquid formulation of albiglutide will enable the commercialization of a liquid product in a single dose, ready-to-use prefilled syringe in an auto-injector.

The primary hypothesis of this study is to test that liquid drug product will provide glycemic control (as measured by HbA1c change from baseline) non-inferior to lyophilized drug product for a period of 26 weeks of treatment in subjects with T2DM.

This study will comprise of 3 study periods : screening (2 weeks), treatment (26 weeks) and for those subjects not entering the extension study a follow-up period (8 weeks). Approximately 300 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either Albiglutide active liquid auto-injector (LAI) plus Placebo lyophilized DCC pen injector (lyophilized DCC PI); or, Albiglutide lyophilized DCC PI plus Placebo LAI.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

DRUG

Lyophilized albiglutide DCC pen injector

A fixed-dose, fully disposable pen injector system with a prefilled dual chamber glass cartridge (DCC) containing lyophilized albiglutide (30mg or 50mg) delivering an injection volume of 0.5mL.

DRUG

Lyophilized albiglutide DCC pen injector matching placebo

A fixed-dose, fully disposable pen injector system with a prefilled DCC containing matching placebo delivering an injection volume of 0.5mL

DRUG

Albiglutide liquid auto-injector

A fixed-dose, single use, disposable auto-injector containing albiglutide liquid (30mg or 50mg) in a prefilled glass syringe. The auto-injector delivers the albiglutide liquid in an injection volume of 0.6 mL for the 30mg dose and 1.0 mL for the 50mg dose.

DRUG

Albiglutide liquid auto-injector matching placebo

A fixed-dose, single use, disposable auto-injector containing matching placebo in a prefilled glass syringe. The auto-injector delivers the matching placebo in an injection volume of 0.6 mL for the 30mg dose and 1.0 mL for the 50mg dose.
