Brief Summary

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

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of aleglitazar compared with placebo when added to a sulfonylurea monotherapy or sulfonylurea plus metformin combination therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are inadequately controlled with sulfonylurea alone or sulfonylurea plus metformin therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive oral doses of 150 mcg aleglitazar once daily or placebo. The anticipated time on study treatment is 26 weeks.
