Brief summary

This study will examine the efficacy of omarigliptin 25 mg once weekly compared to placebo in Japanese patients with T2DM who have inadequate glycemic control on insulin monotherapy in addition to diet and exercise therapy. The primary hypothesis of the study is that omarigliptin 25 mg once weekly provides greater reduction in hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) compared with placebo as assessed by change from baseline to Week 16 \[Phase A (double-blind period)\].

Detailed description

After a screening period of up to 2 weeks followed by a pretreatment period of 2 or 10 weeks, each participant will be receiving assigned double-blind treatment (omarigliptin 25 mg or placebo once weekly) for approximately 16 weeks (Phase A) followed by 36 weeks of open-label treatment (omarigliptin 25 mg once weekly, Phase B). After the end of treatment each participant will be followed for 21 days.

Interventions

Omarigliptin, 25 mg orally once weekly

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo to omarigliptin orally once weekly

BIOLOGICALInsulin

Insulin will be administered subcutaneously during the trial as monotherapy; dosage and administration following each package insert.

Participant whole blood samples were collected at baseline and Week 16 to determine the Constrained Longitudinal Data Analysis least squares mean HbA1c change from baseline (i.e., HbA1c at Week 16 minus HbA1c at baseline). Participants that met rescue criteria had their insulin dose adjusted as determined clinically appropriate by the investigator to manage glycemic control. Data after glycemic rescue were excluded from this analysis. Negative data values indicated a reduction in HbA1c levels.

Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 52 (Phase A+B)Baseline (Day 1) and Week 52Blood glucose was measured on a fasting basis. FPG is expressed as mg/dL. Blood was drawn at predose on Day 1 and after 52 weeks of treatment to determine change in plasma glucose levels (i.e., FPG at Week 52 minus FPG at baseline). Participants that met rescue criteria had their insulin dose adjusted as determined clinically appropriate by the investigator to manage glycemic control.

Population: The analysis population consisted of all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study treatment and had at least one measurement (baseline or post randomization). Three participants in the Placebo group did not have data to contribute to the analysis.

Percentage of Participants Achieving Hemoglobin A1c Goals (<7.0%) at Week 16 Constrained Longitudinal Data Analysis Using Multiple Imputation Excluding Data After Glycemic Rescue (Phase A)

HbA1c is a measure of the percentage of glycated hemoglobin in the blood. Participants that met rescue criteria had their insulin dose adjusted as determined clinically appropriate by the investigator to manage glycemic control. Data after glycemic rescue were excluded from this analysis. Each of the 10 imputed data sets was summarized to obtain the percentage of responders within each group and were combined using standard multiple imputation techniques to yield an overall estimate of response rate and associated variance for each group. A constrained longitudinal data analysis was used to analyze the data and Wilson score method by treatment groups used for the analysis of percentages of individuals at the HbA1c goals of \<7.0% at Week 16 and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Miettinen & Nurminen (M&N) method after imputations were used to calculate the treatment differences of the percentages of individuals and the 95% CIs.

Time frame: Week 16

Population: The analysis population consisted of all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study treatment and had at least one measurement (baseline or post randomization) for the outcome measure.
