Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1) Patient has given written informed consent to participate in the study in accordance with local regulations 2) Adult patients 18 years and older with a diagnosis of T1D made at least 1 year prior to informed consent 3) Patients are being treated with insulin or insulin analog delivered via CSII or MDI where the method of insulin delivery has not changed from CSII to MDI or vice-versa in the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit 4) At the Screening Visit, A1C must be 7.0% to 11.0%, inclusive 5) Must be willing and able to perform SMBG and complete the study diary as required per protocol 6) Females of childbearing potential must use an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the duration of the study and for 30 days after the last dose of study drug. Females of childbearing potential include any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or is not postmenopausal. Postmenopause is defined as no menses for =12 months without another cause. For females with questionable menopausal history (eg, irregular menstrual periods and age >40 years) a documented serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level must be =30 mIU/mL. 7) Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test prior to the start of study drug. In the case of positive urine pregnancy testing, a negative serum sample for pregnancy testing, to confirm that the patient is not pregnant, must be obtained prior to start of study. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 375 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 375

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 24;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate the change from Baseline of LX4211 versus placebo in hierarchical order on the following: -Proportion of patients with A1C <7.0% and no episode of severe hypoglycemia and no episode of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) -Body weight -Bolus insulin dose -Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) -Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire status (DTSQs) score, and 2-item Diabetes Distress Screening Scale (DDS2) questionnaire score;Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate superiority of either LX4211 400 mg or 200 mg versus placebo on glycosylated hemoglobin A1C (A1C) reduction at Week 24 when used as an adjunct in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) who have inadequate glycemic control with insulin therapy.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the change from Baseline to Week 24 in A1C of either dose of LX4211 (400 mg or 200 mg) treatment group compared to placebo.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The secondary efficacy endpoints are to be measured as change from Baseline in either LX4211 dose compared to placebo for each of the following listed below. -Proportion of patients with A1C <7.0% (at Week 24) and no episode of severe hypoglycemia, and no episode of DKA (severe hypoglycemia and DKA occurrence over the cumulative randomized double-blind 24-week Core Treatment Period) -Body weight at Week 24 (absolute and percent change) -Mean change from Baseline in mean daily bolus insulin dose at Week 24 -FPG at Week 24 -Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction as measured by DTSQs scores at Week 24 -Diabetes Distress as measured by 2-item DDS2 scores at Week 24;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 24
