- Brief Summary
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LMF237 50/250 mg and 50/500 mg bid in Japanese patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with vildagliptin monotherapy. This study was conducted to support registration of the fixed-dose combination of vildagliptin and metformin for the treatment of T2DM in Japan.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at 14 Weeks Between Treatment Groups Baseline to 14 weeks HbA1c was performed on a blood sample obtained and measured by High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). HPCL was performed at a central laboratory.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in HbA1c at 14 Weeks Within LMF237 Treatment Groups Baseline to 14 weeks HbA1c will be performed on a blood sample obtained and measured by HPLC. HPCL was performed at a central laboratory.
Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at 14 Weeks Baseline to 14 weeks FPG was performed on a blood sample obtained and analyzed at a central laboratory.
Number of Patients With Adverse Events (Including Hypoglycemia), Serious Adverse Events and Death 14 weeks The occurrence of adverse events were sought by non-directive questioning of the patient at each visit. Adverse events are defined as appearance or worsening of any undesirable symptom, sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), or medical conditions. Serious adverse events are any untoward medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require (or prolong) hospitalization, cause persistent or significant disability/incapacity, result in congenital anomalies or birth defects, or are other conditions which in judgment of investigators represent significant hazards.
Percentage of Patients Meeting Responder Rates in HbA1c Baseline, 14 weeks Responder rate was analyzed in categories: 1. Endpoint HbA1c ≤ 6.5% 2. Endpoint HbA1c \< 7% 3. Endpoint HbA1c \< 7% in patients with baseline HbA1c ≤ 8% 4. Endpoint HbA1c \< 6.9% 5. HbA1c reduction from baseline at endpoint ≥ 1% 6. HbA1c reduction from baseline at endpoint ≥ 0.5%.
Categories 1, 2, and 4 - 'n' includes only patients with baseline HbA1c \> 6.5%, ≥ 7%, ≥ 6.9% and endpoint HbA1c measurement. Category 3, 'n' includes only patients with 7% ≤ baseline HbA1c ≤ 8% and endpoint HbA1c. Category 5 and 6, 'n' indicates number of patients with both baseline and endpoint HbA1c measurements.
