MeasureTime frameDescription
Model-adjusted Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 24Baseline and Week 24HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over a 2- to 3 month period. The Baseline HbA1c value is defined as the last nonmissing value before the start of treatment. Change from Baseline was calculated as the value at Week 24 minus the value at Baseline. Based on analysis of covariance (ANCOVA): Change at Week 24 = treatment (placebo, albiglutide 30 mg, albiglutide 50 mg) + Baseline HbA1c + prior diabetes therapy + age category (\<65 years versus ≥65 years). Participants who discontinued from study treatment before Week 24 had their last post-Baseline HbA1c carried forward for the analysis unless the value is past 14 days after the last dose of study drug. The open-label liraglutide group was a reference group and not included in the primary endpoint analysis model. Descriptive summary statistics are provided as a separate outcome measure.

Clinically meaningful levels of response in HbA1c are defined as \<6.5% and \<7.0%. Participants who discontinued the study before Week 24 had their last post-Baseline HbA1c value carried forwrad for the summary unless the value was past 14 days after the last dose of study drug.

Time frame: Week 24

Population: Intent-to-Treat (Last Observation Carried Forward) Population: all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had a Baseline HbA1c assessment and at least one post-Baseline HbA1c assessment.

HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over a 2- to 3 month period. Clinically meaningful levels of response in HbA1c are defined as \<6.5% and \<7.0%.

Time frame: Week 52

Population: Intent-to-Treat (Observed Case) Population: all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had a Baseline HbA1c assessment and at least one post-Baseline HbA1c assessment. Participants who discontinued from study treatment before Week 52 were not included in the analysis. No missing data were imputed.

Time to Study Withdrawal Due to Hyperglycemia

Participants who experienced persistent hyperglycemia after uptitration were to be withdrawn from the study. Hyperglycemia is defined as a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥280 mg/dL (≥15.5 mmol/L) from ≥Week 2 to \<Week 4, ≥250 mg/dL (≥13.9 mmol/L) from ≥Week 4 to \<Week 12, or ≥230 mg/dL (≥12.8 mmol/L) from ≥Week 12 to \<Week 52, confirmed a second evaluation within 7 days.

Time frame: Baseline through Week 52

Population: Intent-to-Treat Population: all randomized par. who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had a Baseline HbA1c assessment and at least one post-Baseline HbA1c assessment. Par. who did not conform to the protocol-defined criteria of persistent hyperglycemia with respect to FPG values defined above were not included in this analysis.

Time to Study Withdrawal for Any Reason

Time to withdrawal was calculated as the number of days between the date of first dose and the date of withdrawal plus 1. Time to withdrawal was summarized by visit.

Time frame: Baseline through Week 52

Population: Intent-to-Treat Population: all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had a Baseline assessment and at least one post-Baseline assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) of the primary endpoint, HbA1c.
