| Main Objective: The objective of the current study is to investigate the safety of BI 10773 10 mg and 25 mg once daily compared to Metformin 1000-2000 mg/day or to Sitagliptin 100 mg once daily given for 78 weeks in different modalities of treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. ;Secondary Objective: An additional objective is to assess the efficacy of BI 10773 alone or as concomitant administration with Metformin in the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2 compared to Metformin 1000-2000 mg/day or to Sitagliptin 100 mg once daily given for 78 weeks in different modalities of treatment.;Primary end point(s): There is no primary efficacy endpoint in a statistical sense in this study. Safety and tolerability will be assessed in a descriptive analysis based on: Frequency of adverse events, Frequency of hypoglycaemic events, Changes in vital signs, Use of rescue therapy, Change body weight to week 78, Change in waist circumference to week 78, Changes in lipid parameters to week 78, Frequency of clinically significant changes from baseline in clinical laboratory. Secondary endpoints with regards to efficacy are the following: Change in HbA1c after 78 weeks of treatment and over time, Occurrence of a treat to target response, defined as an HbA1c after 78 weeks of =0.5% after 78 weeks of treatment, Change from baseline in FPG after 78 weeks of treatment and over time. | — |
