What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) at Week 18
Time Frame: Baseline, week 18
HbA1c is measured as a percent. The change from baseline reflects the Week 18 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent. Means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 18

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 18
Time Frame: Baseline, week 18
Change from baseline reflects the Week 18 FPG minus the Week 0 FPG. Means are adjusted for baseline FPG and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 18
Percentage of Patients With Absolute Efficacy Response (HbA1c < 7%) at Week 18
Time Frame: week 18
An absolute efficacy response is defined as HbA1c < 7.0% at 18 weeks. A non-response is defined as HbA1c >= 7.0% at 18 weeks.
week 18
Percentage of Patients With Absolute Efficacy Response (HbA1c < 6.5%) at Week 18
Time Frame: week 18
An absolute efficacy response is defined as HbA1c < 6.5% at 18 weeks. A non-response is defined as HbA1c >= 6.5% at 18 weeks.
week 18
Percentage of Patients With HbA1c Lowering by at Least 0.5% From Baseline at Week 18
Time Frame: Baseline, week 18
An efficacy response is defined as HbA1c lowered by 0.5% or more at 18 weeks. A non-response is defined as HbA1c not lowered by 0.5% or more at 18 weeks.
Baseline, week 18
Mixed Model Repeated Measurements Analysis of Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 6
Time Frame: Baseline, week 6
HbA1c is measured as a percent. The change from baseline reflects the Week 6 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent. Means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 6
Mixed Model Repeated Measurements Analysis of Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, week 12
HbA1c is measured as a percent. The change from baseline reflects the Week 12 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent. Means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 12
Mixed Model Repeated Measurements Analysis of Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 18
Time Frame: Baseline, week 18
HbA1c is measured as a percent. The change from baseline reflects the Week 18 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent. Means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 18
Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 6
Time Frame: Baseline, week 6
Change from baseline reflects the Week 6 FPG minus the Week 0 FPG. Means are adjusted for baseline FPG and previous anti-diabetic medication.
Baseline, week 6
Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, week 12
Change from baseline reflects the Week 12 FPG minus the Week 0 FPG. Means are adjusted for baseline FPG and previous anti-diabetic medication.
