Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Efficacy of Linagliptin (BI 1356) Plus Metformin in Type 2 Diabetes, Factorial Design (NCT NCT00798161)

NCT ID: NCT00798161

Last Updated: 2014-01-28

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: FAS treated and randomised patients 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%.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and week 24

Population: Meal tolerance test (MTT) set (patients with adequate MTT results available at the beginning and end of the randomised treatment period)

This change from baseline reflects the Week 24 2h PPG minus the baseline 2h PPG. Means are treatment adjusted for baseline HbA1c, baseline 2h PPG and previous anti-diabetic medication.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and week 24

Population: The open label set (OLS) included all patients with baseline HbA1c too high to be randomised and were assigned open-label medication, also with an on treatment HbA1c value. The Open label Set (OLS) included all patients treated with at least one dose on open-label L2.5+M1000 medication.

HbA1c is measured as a percentage. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 24 HbA1c percent minus the baseline HbA1c percentage. Mean is unadjusted.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 weeks

Population: Percentage of patients requiring rescue therapy

The use of rescue therapy (SUs, thiazolidinediones \[TZDs\], or insulin) was permitted only during the randomised treatment period of the trial (i.e. Visits 3 to 7), and was to be administered only if a patient had a 'confirmed' glucose level after an overnight fast.
