Trial Outcomes & Findings for BI 1356 (Linagliptin) in Combination With Metformin and a Sulphonylurea in Type 2 Diabetes (NCT NCT00602472)

NCT ID: NCT00602472

Last Updated: 2014-03-28

Results Overview

HbA1c is measured as a percentage. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 24 HbA1c percent minus the baseline HbA1c percent. Means are treatment adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and week 24

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all treated and randomised patients with a baseline and at least one on treatment HbA1c measurement available. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) was used as the imputation rule.

HbA1c is measured as a percentage. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 24 HbA1c percent minus the baseline HbA1c percent. Means are treatment adjusted for baseline HbA1c and previous anti-diabetic medication.

Timeframe: Baseline and week 24

Population: This population includes the FAS with baseline HbA1c \>= 7.0%. Non-completers were considered as failure imputation (NCF).

The percentage of patients with an HbA1c value below 7% at week 24 was calculated for each treatment arm. If a patient did not have an HbA1c value at week 24 they were considered a failure, so HbA1c above 7%. Only patients with baseline HbA1c \>= 7%
