A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Active Controlled, Parallel Group, Phase 3 Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Add-On Therapy With Saxagliptin and Dapagliflozin Added to Metformin Compared to Add-On Therapy With Saxagliptin in Combination With Metformin or Dapagliflozin in Combination With Metformin in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Who Have Inadequate Glycemic Control on Metformin Alone
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to learn if a combination of BMS-477118 (Saxagliptin) and BMS -512148 (Dapagliflozin) added to Metformin can improve (decrease) Glycosylated Hemoglobin (Hemoglobin A1c) in patients with type 2 diabetes after 24 weeks of treatment. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes.
Primary outcome: Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) at Week 24.
Enrollment: 1282 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: 1,282 participants or records.
