Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of adding alogliptin, once daily (QD), compared to glipizide with metformin in diabetic patients.

Detailed description

For patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus, metformin is the usual first-line therapy in addition to diet control and exercise. For those patients with inadequate glycemic control with metformin monotherapy or experiencing serious side effects of metformin, sulfonylurea is a popular choice as a second-line oral antidiabetic treatment. Alogliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor currently being developed by Takeda for use in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study is designed to further explore the durability of efficacy and safety of alogliptin compared to glipizide in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients whose blood sugar level is inadequately controlled with metformin therapy. The duration of this study will be approximately 2 years.

Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 104

The change from Baseline to Week 104 in HbA1c (the concentration of glucose bound to hemoglobin as a percent of the absolute maximum that can be bound). The least squares (LS) means are from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment, study schedule, and geographic region as class variables, and Baseline metformin dose and Baseline HbA1c as covariates.

Time frame: Baseline and Week 104

Population: The Per-protocol set included all randomized patients who took at least 1 dose of double-blind study drug, with a Baseline assessment and at least 1 post-baseline assessment for that variable and who had no major protocol violations. Last observation carried forward was used (LOCF).

H02: Alogliptin 12.5 mg was inferior vs glipizide. H03: Alogliptin 25 mg was not superior vs glipizide. H04: Alogliptin 12.5 mg was not superior vs glipizide. Each subsequent null hypothesis was tested only if all previously tested null hypotheses were rejected with respect to Weeks 52 and 104.

Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin at Other Time Points

The change from Baseline over time in HbA1c (the concentration of glucose bound to hemoglobin as a percent of the absolute maximum that can be bound). LS means are from an ANCOVA model with treatment, study schedule, and geographic region as class variables, and Baseline metformin dose and Baseline HbA1c as covariates.

Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 26, 39, 65, 78, and 91.

Population: Per-protocol set; LOCF was used.
