|---|---|
| Main Objective: To examine whether, after 24 weeks of oral administration of double-blind treatment, the change from baseline in glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level with dapagliflozin 10 mg plus metformin is non-inferior to sitagliptin (DPP-4 inhibitor) 100 mg plus metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycaemic control on 1500 mg/day or higher doses of metformin therapy alone. ;Secondary Objective: Key secondary objectives: -To show that dapagliflozin plus metformin reduces body weight compared to sitagliptin plus metformin from baseline to week 24 -To show that dapagliflozin plus metformin reduces body weight compared to sitagliptin plus metformin from baseline to week 24 in patients with baseline Body Mass Index (BMI) >= 27 kg/m2 -To show that dapagliflozin plus metformin decreases seated systolic blood pressure (SBP) compared to sitagliptin plus metformin from baseline to week 6 in patients with baseline SBP =130 mmHg -To show that dapagliflozin plus metformin reduces fasting plasma glucose compared to sitagliptin plus metformin after 1 week of treatment.;Primary end point(s): Change in HbA1c from baseline to week 24 | — |
