Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
HbA1c Change From Baseline at Week 12Baseline and week 12

HbA1c is measured as a percentage. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 12 HbA1c percent minus the baseline HbA1c percent. Treatment means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c and use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Occurrence of a Treat to Target Efficacy Response (HbA1c <6.5 %) After 12 Weeks of Treatment12 weeks

Percentage of those patients with baseline HbA1c \>= 6.5% who had HbA1c \< 6.5% at Week 12. The analysis was performed on the full analysis set (FAS) using NCF.

HbA1c Change From Baseline at Week 6 From Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) AnalysisBaseline and week 6

Mixed model includes treatment, baseline HbA1c, use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin, week repeated within patient, week by treatment interaction.

HbA1c Change From Baseline at Week 12 From Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) AnalysisBaseline and week 12

Mixed model includes treatment, baseline HbA1c, use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin, week repeated within patient, week by treatment interaction.

FPG Change From Baseline at Week 12Baseline and week 12

Change from baseline reflects the Week 12 FPG minus the baseline FPG. Treatment means are adjusted for baseline HbA1c, baseline fasting plasma glucose and use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin.

FPG Change From Baseline at Week 6 From Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) AnalysisBaseline and week 6

Mixed model includes treatment, baseline HbA1c, baseline FPG, use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin, week repeated within patient, week by treatment interaction.

FPG Change From Baseline at Week 12 From Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) AnalysisBaseline and week 12

Mixed model includes treatment, baseline HbA1c, baseline FPG, use of prior oral antidiabetics (OADs) in addition to background metformin, week repeated within patient, week by treatment interaction.

Percentage of Patients With HbA1c Lowering by 0.5% or More at Week 12Week 12

Percentage of patients with HbA1c lowering by at least 0.5% after 12 weeks. The analysis was performed on the full analysis set (FAS) using NCF.

Percentage of Patients With Rescue Therapy12 weeks

Percentage of patients with rescue therapy at Week 12. The analysis was performed on the full analysis set (FAS) using OC.

The Occurrence of a Treat to Target Efficacy Response (HbA1c <7.0%) After 12 Weeks of Treatment12 weeks

Percentage of those patients with baseline HbA1c \>= 7.0% who had HbA1c \< 7% at Week 12. The analysis was performed on the full analysis set (FAS) using NCF.
