Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of the study is to test the efficacy, safety and tolerability of several doses of BI 1356 BS (1, 5, or 10 mg taken once daily) compared to placebo given for 12 weeks together with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are not at goal with their HbA1c levels. In addition, there will be an unblinded treatment arm with glimepiride as add-on therapy to metformin for comparison. The influence of several factors (gender, age, weight, race, etc.) on the bioavailability and efficacy of BI 1356 BS will also be tested in this study.
