A Phase III, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Addition of MK-3102 Compared With the Addition of Glimepiride in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Inadequate Glycemic Control on Metformin
Abstract
This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of omarigliptin (MK-3102) compared with the sulfonylurea, glimepiride, in Type 2 diabetes mellitus participants with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. The primay hypothesis of the study is that after 54 weeks, the mean change from baseline in hemoglobin A1C (A1C) in participants treated with omarigliptin is non-inferior compared with that in participants treated with glimepiride.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Primary outcome: Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1C at Week 54; Percentage of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event Excluding Data After Glycemic Rescue; Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued From the Study Due to an Adverse Event Excluding Data After Glycemic Rescue.
Enrollment: 751 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: 751 participants or records.
