A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Active-Controlled, Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of BMS-298585 in Combination With Metformin Compared to Pioglitazone in Combination With Metformin in Type 2 Diabetics With Inadequate Glycemic Control on Metformin Alone
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if type 2 diabetics who have inadequate glycemic control on metformin alone, have a similar, or not inferior, glycemic response when treated with the combination of muraglitazar and metformin compared to pioglitazone and metformin.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes.
Primary outcome: Compare change from basline in HbA1c after 24 weeks and 50 weeks of treatment with muraglitazar + metformin vs. pioglitazone + metformin.
Enrollment: 1159 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 1,159 participants or records.
