12 Weeks Treatment With 3 Different Doses of BI 10773 in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

May 16, 2014 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

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

The objective is to investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of three different doses of BI 10773 compared to placebo given for 12 weeks in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with insufficient glycemic control. In addition an open-label metformin arm will be assessed
