NCT ID:
NCT01871558
Brief Summary:
To compare a therapeutic strategy combining vildagliptin+metformin + Basal Insulin versus SU+metformin + Basal Insulin on the incidence of hypoglycemic events over 24 weeks.
Detailed Description:
This study, conducted in T2DM patients failing a dual therapy with metformin/SU in whom the decision to start basal insulin has been taken, will compare vildagliptin+metformin versus the previously used SU+met combination (regimen kept unchanged) in association with basal insulin, up-titrated as per usual algorithms primarily based on FPG to obtain a similar improvement in glycemic control in both arms, on the incidence of hypoglycemic episodes over 24 weeks.
