E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial | 1. To assess the long-term safety of LAF237 in combination with metformin after 52 weeks of treatment. 2. To assess the long-term efficacy of LAF237 in combination with metformin by evaluating the effect on HbA1c after 52 weeks of treatment. | |
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial | To assess the long-term efficacy of LAF237 in combination with metformin by evaluating the effect on HbA1c and on FPG after 52 weeks of treatment as compared to the end of the core study (Week 24). To assess the mechanism of action of LAF237 in combination with metformin by evaluating the effect on beta-cell function (indexed by the fasting proinsulin concentration, fasting proinsulin/insulin ratio and HOMA B) and insulin resistance (indexed by the fasting insulin concentration and HOMA IR) after 52 weeks of treatment as compared to the baseline and compared to the end of the core study (Week 24). | |
