Registration Number
NCT00859898
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the change from baseline in hemoglobin A1C achieved with dapagliflozin 10 mg in combination with metformin XR as compared with metformin XR monotherapy and compared with Dapagliflozin monotherapy, after 24 weeks of oral administration of double-blind treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at Week 24 (Last Observation Carried Forward) - Randomized Treated ParticipantsWeek 24

Adjusted mean change in HbA1c from baseline at Week 24 (or the last post-baseline measurement prior to Week 24 if no Week 24 assessment was available, ie, last observation carried forward (LOCF) was determined. HbA1c was measured as percent of hemoglobin by a central laboratory. Data after rescue medication was excluded from this analysis. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to the start date and time of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. In cases where time of the first dose or time of the assessment was not available, baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. HbA1c measurements were obtained during the Qualification and Lead-In Periods and on Day 1 and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 in the Double-Blind Period.
