Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Absolute Change From Baseline to Week 24 in Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)Baseline , Week 24

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). HbA1c is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. HbA1c data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Absolute Change (mmol/L) From Baseline to Week 24 in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)Baseline, Week 24

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF), Full Analysis set). FPG is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. FPG data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

Absolute Change (mg/dL) From Baseline to Week 24 in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)Baseline, Week 24

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). FPG is a continuous measure, the change from baseline for each subject is calculated as the week 24 values minus the baseline value. FPG data were excluded on and after rescue medication.

Absolute Change (mmol*Min/L) From Baseline to Week 24 in Area Under the Curve (AUC) From 0 to 180 Minutes for Postprandial Glucose (PPG) During Mixed Meal (Instant Noodles) Tolerance Tests (MMTT) in All MMTT ParticipantsBaseline , Week 24

Adjusted\* mean change from baseline in PPG AUC achieved with saxagliptin 5 mg versus placebo at week 24 (LOCF, Full Analysis set). Trapezoidal method was used to compute AUC under the 3 hour PPG curve. Change from baseline for each subject is computed as the week 24 value minus the baseline value.PPG data were excluded on and after rescue medication

Proportion of Patients Achieving a Therapeutic Glycemic Response Defined as HbA1c <7.0% at Week 24Baseline, Week 24

Proportion of participants (expressed in percentage of total participants) achieving HbA1c \< 7.0% for saxagliptin versus placebo at week 24. HbA1c Data were excluded on and after rescue medication
