Trial Outcomes

Absolute Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 24

Absolute change = HbA1c value at Week 24 minus HbA1c value at baseline. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is time from the first dose of study drug and up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug, on or before Visit 12 (Week 24) or Day 169 if Visit 12 is not available, and before the introduction of rescue therapy. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required. (NCT00763815)

Change From Baseline (Week 0) in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) (%) at Week 12

Fasted blood samples for HbA1c were collected at Baseline and Week 12.

Change From Baseline in 24-hour Percent of Filtered Glucose Excreted in Urine

Participants were provided with urine collection bottles and cooler prior to these visits and instructed that the urine collections must be kept cold and dropped off at the clinic prior to or at the scheduled visits. Site staff queried participants to determine whether the sample represented a full 24-hour collection. The total volume and the sample date and time were recorded. The entire 24-hour urine collection was well mixed in one container and a urine aliquot obtained. Samples were assayed for glucose. The 24-hour collections were used to derive 24-hour urine glucose excretion corrected for filtered load. Baseline was Week 0. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline values from post-Baseline values. (NCT00500331)

AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product. For marketed medicinal products, this also includes failure to produce expected benefits (i.e., lack of efficacy), abuse or misuse. SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is medically significant.

Timeframe: Up to Week 12

Number of Participants With Abnormal Hematology Value of PCI at Any Time on Therapy

Hematology parameters: Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Platelet count and White blood cells were assessed for abnormal PCI values. Participants were instructed to fast for at least 8 hours prior to all study visits for the collection of laboratory samples. Samples were collected at Baseline, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12 and at Week 14 (follow up). (NCT00495469)
Timeframe: Up to Week 12

Number of Participants With Any On-therapy Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. SAE was defined as any untoward event resulting in death, life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect or any other situation according to medical or scientific judgment. (NCT00495469)
Timeframe: Up to Week 12

Number of Participants With Vital Signs of Potential Clinical Importance (PCI) at Any Time on Therapy

Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR) were measured pre-dose in duplicate, after the participant has been lying quietly for 5 minutes, and then in duplicate 3 minutes after standing up. Participants were asked to refrain from smoking for at least 30 minutes prior to vital sign measurements. (NCT00495469)

Change in Endogenous Glucose Production (EGP)

All subjects received a Double-Tracer Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) with 75g of glucose containing 14C-glucose together with intravenous primed-continuous infusion of 3(3H)-glucose for 240 minutes, at baseline (prior to) and after 16 weeks of therapy. Blood and urine samples were obtained during the OGTT to determine EGP. (NCT02613897)

Change From Baseline in Incremental Area Under the Curve 0-4h (iAUC0-4h) Derived From the Glucose Concentration Profile During Meal Test

Values of mean change in normalised iAUC0-4h values based on LOCF data derived from the glucose concentration profiles during a meal test. The meal test was performed at selected sites at baseline and after 26 weeks of treatment in the main trial period. The incremental AUC was calculated using the trapezoidal method and the resulting area was divided length of the observation period to yield the (normalised) prandial increment in mmol/L using the available valid glucose observations and the associated actual elapsed time point.
