Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The change from baseline in HbA1c after 14 weeks treatment;Secondary Objective: Key sencondary objectives are to assess whether the combination therapy (once daily) has improved tolerability to gastrointestinal (GI) side effects over metformin alone (twice daily), by comparing the composite endpoint of occurrence of treat to target response, defined HbA1c<7.0% and no occurence of moderate or severe metformin pre-specified GI side effects during 14 weeks treatment; and the occurrence of metformin pre-specified moderate or severe GI side effects during 14 weeks treatment.;Primary end point(s): 1: The change from baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 14 weeks treatment ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1: 14 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1: Composite endpoint of occurence of treat to target efficacy response, that is an HbA1c under treatment of <7.0% after 14 weeks of treatment, and no occurence of moderate or severe gastrointestinal (GI) side effects during 14 weeks of treatment 2: Change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) after 14 weeks of treatment 3: Metformin pre-specified GI symptom intensity score assessed by investigators during 14 weeks of treatment 4: Metformin pre-specified GI symptom intensty score assessed by patients during 14 weeks of treatment 5: Composite endpoint of occurrence of treat to target efficacy response, that is an HbA1c under treatment of <6.5% after 14 weeks of treatment, and on occurence of moderate or severe metformin pre-specified GI side effects assessed by investigators 6: Occurrence of relative efficacy response (HbA1c lowering by at least 0.5% after 14 weeks of treatment) 7: Occurence of metformin pre-specified moderate to severe GI side effects assessed by investigators during 14 weeks of treatment 8: Occurrence of relative efficacy response (HbA1c lowering by at least 0.8% after 14 weeks of treatment) 9: Composite endponit of occurence of relative efficacy response(HbA1c lowering by at least 0.5% after 14 weeks of treatment) and no occurence of moderate and severe metformin pre-specified GI side effects assessed by the investigators during 14 weeks 10: Compostie endpoint of occurrence of relative efficacy response(HbA1c lowering by at least 0.8% after 14 weeks of treatment) and no occurrence of moderate and severe metformin pre-specified GI side effects assessed by investigators during 14 weeks 11: change from baseline in HbA1c by visit over time 12: change from baseline in body weight by visit over time ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1: 14 weeks 2: 14 weeks 3: 14 weeks 4: 14 weeks 5: 14 weeks 6: 14 weeks 7: 14 weeks 8: 14 weeks 9: 14 weeks 10: 14 weeks 11: 14 weeks | — |
