Efficacy and Safety of Alogliptin vs. Acarbose in Chinese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) Patients With High CV Risk or CHD Treated With Aspirin and Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Monotherapy or Drug Naive

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03794336
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi
Brief Summary

Primary Objectives:

* To assess efficacy in terms of change from baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at the end of study between the two drugs.

* To assess tolerability in terms of overall Gastrointestinal (GI) tolerability for Alogliptin compared with acarbose during the whole treatment period.

Secondary Objectives:

* To assess efficacy in terms of the percentage of patients achieving HbA1c\<7%.

* To assess efficacy in terms of percentage of patients achieving HbA1c\<7% without GI effects.

* To assess change from baseline in Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h Post plasma glucose (2-h PPG), β-cell function (HOMA-β), lipids and body weight.

* To assess safety in terms of occurrence of hypoglycemia events.

* To assess safety in terms of other adverse events.

* To assess patient adherence and tolerability.

Detailed Description

The duration of the study for each patient will be approximately 17 weeks consisting of about 1 week screening period and 16-week treatment period.
