Brief Summary

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

The primary purpose of this study is to describe the tolerability of canagliflozin and any sulphonylurea (each administered with metformin with or without a DPP-4 inhibitor), in terms of the percentage of patients with at least one episode of hypoglycaemia, in patients with T2DM who fast during Ramadan.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is non-randomized, parallel-cohort, prospective, multicenter (when more than one hospital works on a medical research study), observational study to describe the treatment of T2DM with canagliflozin during the Holy Month of Ramadan. Observed participants will be participants with T2DM (at the time of enrollment) who are being treated with either canagliflozin or any sulphonylurea, each administered on a background therapy of metformin with or without a DPP-4 inhibitor within clinical practice, and who intend to fast during the Ramadan period. On enrollment, patients will enter one of two parallel treatment cohorts based on their ongoing T2DM therapy: canagliflozin and metformin with or without a DPP-4 inhibitor will be the treatment of interest, while any sulphonylurea and metformin with or without a DPP-4 inhibitor will serve as the reference standard treatment. Safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Participants who has a confirmed diagnosis of type 2 diabetes for more than 12 months before enrollment
* Participants who has been treated with canagliflozin or any sulphonylurea, each on a background therapy of metformin with or without a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, for \>12 weeks before enrollment
* Participants Intends to fast during Ramadan in 2016
* Participants Will be able to continue on the products under study (i.e., canagliflozin or any sulphonylurea, each with metformin with or without a DPP-4 inhibitor) through the Ramadan period, as judged by the participating physician
* Participants who has a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurement less than and equal to (\<=) 8.5% within 8 weeks before the start of Ramadan.

Exclusion Criteria

* Participant is being treated with insulin and/or any type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) therapy other than canagliflozin, any sulphonylurea, and metformin with or without a DPP 4 inhibitor, or has changed their T2DM therapy within 12 weeks before enrollment (dose changes of canagliflozin, a sulphonylurea, metformin, and a DPP 4 inhibitor where applicable are accepted)
* Participant is currently being treated with loop diuretics
* Participants who has a history of severe hypoglycaemia events within the 6 months prior to enrollment (defined as a hypoglycaemia event for which the patient required assistance from another person, or which resulted in seizure or loss of consciousness).
