BI 10773 add-on to Metformin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

May 16, 2014 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

A Phase II, Randomized, Parallel Group Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics Study of BI 10773 (1 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 25 mg, and 50 mg) Administered Orally Once Daily Over 12 Weeks Compared Double Blind to Placebo With an Additional Open-label Sitagliptin Arm in Type 2 Diabetic Patients With Insufficient Glycemic Control Despite Metformin Therapy

The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of five doses of BI 10773 compared to placebo given for 12 weeks as add-on therapy to on going metformin therapy in patients with T2DM with insufficient glycemic control. In addition, there will be an open-label treatment arm with sitagliptin (JanuviaTM) as add-on therapy to metformin.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in HbA1c After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks

Change from baseline in HbA1c after 12 weeks of treatment.

In the measured values adjusted means are displayed. For means for the placebo and empagliflozin arms are from the model excluding the sitagliptin open label (OL) arm. The mean for the sitagliptin OL arm is from the model with just this treatment group and the placebo group.

Baseline and 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change of HbA1c From Baseline Over Time
Time Frame: Baseline and weeks 4, 8 and 12
Change of HbA1c from baseline over time. Results presented stem from a repeated measures analysis.
Baseline and weeks 4, 8 and 12
Change in Homeostasis Model Assessment Index for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
HOMA-IR (to assess insulin resistance) is defined as (FPI x FPG)/22.5. Results based on ANCOVA.
Baseline and 12 weeks
Change of Body Weight After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
Results for change of body weight after 12 weeks of treatment based on ANCOVA.
Baseline and 12 weeks
Change of FPG From Baseline After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks

Change of Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) from baseline after 12 weeks of treatment. Results presented stem from a repeated measures analysis.

In the measured values adjusted means are displayed. For means for the placebo and empagliflozin arms are from the model excluding the sitagliptin open label (OL) arm. The mean for the sitagliptin OL arm is from the model with just this treatment group and the placebo group.

Baseline and 12 weeks
Proportion of Patients Who Achieve an HbA1c ≤7.0% After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
Results for HbA1c categories at week 12 (Proportion of patients with HbA1c less than equal to 7%) based on logistic regression
Baseline and 12 weeks
Proportion of Patients Who Achieve an HbA1c Lowering of at Least 0.5% After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
Results for HbA1c categories at week 12 (Proportion of patients with HbA1c lowered at least 0.5%) based on logistic regression

Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
Results for change of FPI from baseline at week 12 based on ANCOVA
Baseline and 12 weeks
Change in Homeostasis Model Assessment Index for Beta Cell Function (HOMA-%B)
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
HOMA-%B (to assess insulin beta cell function) is defined as (20 x FPI)/(FPG-3.5), FPG in mg/dl. Results are based on ANCOVA.
Baseline and 12 weeks
Trough Concentrations of Empagliflozin in Plasma
Time Frame: Days 28, 56 and 84
