NCT ID: NCT03608358
Brief Summary: This is a 24-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel group, phase 3 study designed to evaluate if the safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin 5 mg or 10 mg added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin is superior to placebo added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin in reducing hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).
Detailed Description: This study will be conducted in approximately 36 sites in Asian countries. Approximately 1004 subjects will be screened and 342 randomized. Prior to the screening, subjects of Stratum A should have a stable dose of metformin (≥1500 mg/day or a maximal tolerated dose) for at least 8 weeks. And subjects of Stratum B should have a stable dose of metformin (≥1500 mg/day or a maximal tolerated dose) AND a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor at maximum approved dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening. Eligible subjects who complete the screening visit will enter the lead-in period, which includes open-label saxagliptin 5 mg and metformin treatment for 16 weeks in Stratum A or 8 weeks in Stratum B. At randomization visit, eligible subjects will be randomized into 1 of 3 treatment groups in a 1:1:1 ratio, receiving blinded dapagliflozin 5 mg, 10 mg or placebo plus metformin and saxagliptin 5 mg treatment for 24 weeks.
