January 8, 2008 updated by: Solvay Pharmaceuticals

A Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Arm, Multicenter, Dose-Ranging Phase IIb Trial to Assess Glycemic and Weight Loss Efficacy and Safety of BMS-646256 in Overweight and Obese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled by Diet and Exercise Only or With Metformin or Sulfonylurea Monotherapy

This is a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, parallel arm, multicenter, dose-ranging phase IIb trial to assess glycemic and weight loss efficacy and safety of BMS-646256 in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes who have been treated with diet and exercise only or with half-maximal or greater metformin (≥1500mg/day) or sulfonylurea monotherapy (stable dose for at least three months), but who remained inadequately controlled (HbA1c >7% and HbA1c<10%).
