Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To compare the effect of three once-daily dose levels of oral semaglutide (3, 7 and 14 mg) versus sitagliptin 100 mg once-daily, both in combination with metformin, on glycaemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).;Secondary Objective: 1. To compare the effect of three once-daily dose levels of oral semaglutide (3, 7 and 14 mg) versus sitagliptin 100 mg once-daily, both in combination with metformin, on body weight in subjects with T2D. 2. To compare the safety and tolerability of three once-daily dose levels of oral semaglutide (3, 7 and 14 mg) versus sitagliptin 100 mg once-daily, both in combination with metformin, in subjects with T2D.;Primary end point(s): Change in HbA1c;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline to week 26 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Change in body weight 2. Change in fasting plasma glucose 3. If a subject achieves (yes/no) HbA1c <7.0 % (53 mmol/mol) (American Diabetes Association target) 4. Number of treatment-emergent adverse events during exposure to trial product 5. Number of treatment-emergent severe or blood glucose confirmed symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes during exposure to trial product;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. and 2. From baseline to week 26 3. After week 26 4. and 5. Assessed up to approximately 31 weeks | — |
