| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary efficacy analysis is to compare the difference between saxagliptin 5 mg od plus metformin plus sulfonylurea versus placebo plus metformin plus sulfonylurea, in patients with type 2 diabetes, as determined by the change in HbA1c levels from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint.;Secondary Objective: Compare change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint between the treatment groups. Compare change in postprandial glucose (PPG) (measured 2 hours after breakfast) from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint between the treatment groups; Compare proportion of patients achieving a therapeutic glycaemic response at Week 24/Endpoint defined as HbA1c <7% between the treatment groups. ;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint is change in HbA1c from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint. Secondary endpoints are Change in FPG from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint, change in PPG (measured 2 hours after breakfast) from Baseline to Week 24/Endpoint and proportion of patients achieving a therapeutic glycaemic response at Week 24/Endpoint defined as HbA1c <7% | — |
