Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adjusted Mean Change in HbA1c LevelsBaseline to Week 16

To compare the change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with each of the 2 BID doses of dapagliflozin (2.5 mg BID and 5 mg BID) co-administered with metformin versus placebo co-administered with metformin after 16 weeks of double-blind treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adjusted Mean Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) From Baseline to Week 16Baseline to Week 16

To compare the change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) achieved with each of the 2 BID doses of dapagliflozin (2.5 mg BID and 5 mg BID) co-administered with metformin versus placebo co-administered with metformin after 16 weeks of double-blind treatment.

Adjusted Percent Change in Body WeightBaseline to Week 16

To compare the percent change from baseline in body weight achieved with each of the 2 BID doses of dapagliflozin (2.5 mg BID, and 5 mg BID) co-administered with metformin versus placebo co-administered with metformin after 16 weeks of double-blind treatment.

Adjusted Mean Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) From Baseline to Week 1Baseline to Week 1

To compare the change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) achieved with each of the 2 BID doses of dapagliflozin (2.5 mg BID and 5 mg BID) co-administered with metformin versus placebo co-administered with metformin after 1 week of double-blind treatment.

Proportion of Participants With HbA1c<7.0% at Week 16, in Participants Who Had HbA1c ≥7.0% at Baseline.Baseline to Week 16

To compare the adjusted proportions controlling for baseline HbA1c \[acc. to Zhang, Tsiatis \& Davidian and Davidian, Tsiatis, Zhang \& Lu\] of participants with HbA1c \<7.0% achieved with each of the 2 BID doses of dapagliflozin (2.5 mg BID and 5 mg BID) co-administered with metformin versus placebo co-administered with metformin after 16 weeks of double-blind treatment, in patients who had HbA1c ≥7.0% at baseline.
