ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in HbA1c 26 Weeks After RandomisationWeek 0, week 26
Change from baseline (week 0) in HbA1c was evaluated after 26 weeks of randomisation. The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period. In-trial period: the observation period from date of randomisation until last trial-related subject-site contact.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 1-hour Post Prandial Glucose (PPG) Increment 26 Weeks After Randomisation (Meal Test)Week 0, week 26
The 1-hour PPG increment was analysed based on the laboratory-measured values in the meal test, and was derived using the 1-hour PPG measurement minus the pre-prandial plasma glucose (PG). The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 1,5-anhydroglucitol 26 Weeks After RandomisationWeek 0, week 26The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) 26 Weeks After RandomisationWeek 0, week 26The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Reaching HbA1c Targets (HbA1c < 7.0%) 26 Weeks After Randomisation26 weeks after randomisationThe percentage of subjects who achieved the HbA1c target of \<7.0% 26 weeks after randomisation. Subjects without an HbA1c measurement at week 26 were treated as non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Reaching HbA1c Targets (HbA1c < 7.0% Without Severe Hypoglycaemia) 26 Weeks After Randomisation26 weeks after randomisation
The percentage of subjects who achieved the HbA1c target of \<7.0% without severe hypoglycaemia 26 weeks after randomisation. Severe hypoglycaemia: An episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. Plasma glucose concentrations may not be available during an event, but neurological recovery following the return of plasma glucose to normal is considered sufficient evidence that the event was induced by a low plasma glucose concentration. Subjects without an HbA1c measurement at week 26 were treated as non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Reaching HbA1c Targets (HbA1c < 7.0% Without Severe Hypoglycaemia and Minimal Weight Gain [<3.0%]) 26 Weeks After Randomisation26 weeks after randomisation
The percentage of subjects who achieved the HbA1c target of \<7.0% without severe hypoglycaemia and with minimal weight gain (defined as less than a 3% increase) 26 weeks after randomisation. Severe hypoglycaemia: An episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. Plasma glucose concentrations may not be available during an event, but neurological recovery following the return of plasma glucose to normal is considered sufficient evidence that the event was induced by a low plasma glucose concentration. Subjects without an HbA1c measurement at week 26 or without body weight measurement at week 26 were treated as non-responders.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 30- Min, 1- Hour, 2- Hour, 3- Hour and 4- Hour PPG 26 Weeks After RandomisationWeek 0, week 26
Laboratory measured PG from the meal test was analysed for 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes PPG separately. The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 30- Min, 1- Hour, 2- Hour, 3- Hour and 4- Hour PPG Increment 26 Weeks After RandomisationWeek 0, week 26
Laboratory measured PG from the meal test was analysed for 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes PPG separately. The corresponding PPG increments were derived separately using each PPG measurement minus the pre-prandial PG. The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 7-9-7-point Self-measured Plasma Glucose (SMPG) 26 Weeks After Randomisation: Mean of the 7-9-7-point ProfileWeek 0, week 26
The subject was instructed to perform a 7-9-7 SMPG point profile on the 3 consecutive days just before selected visit. 7-point profile (day 3 and day 1 before selected visit): before breakfast, 60 minutes after the start of breakfast, before lunch, 60 minutes after the start of lunch, before main evening meal, 60 minutes after the start of main evening meal, and at bedtime. 9-point profile (day 2 before selected visit) included all timepoints of 7-points profile with addition of SMPG measurement at 4 a.m. and before breakfast on the following day. The mean of the 7-9-7-point profile was defined as the area under the curve profile divided by the measurement time, and was calculated using the linear trapezoidal technique. The results are based on the last in-trial value, which included the last available measurement in the in-trial period.
