Brief summary

The objectives of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and dose of DS-8500a compared with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Detailed description

The objectives of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and dose of DS-8500a compared with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus after a 12-week oral administration of DS-8500a at 25, 50, or 75 mg in a double-blind, parallel-group comparison study. In addition, the clinical positioning of DS-8500a relative to an existing drug will be investigated using sitagliptin as a comparator.

Interventions
