简要总结
Approximately 152 patients will be randomized from 19 sites from India. One site is yet to be selected. The anticipated first patient enrollment from India is 15 Feb 2010 This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study with a screening period of up to 12-weeks, a 4-week single-blind placebo run-in period, and a 26-week double-blind treatment period. Patients will be screened, complete the 4-week single-blind placebo run-in period, and then be randomized to receive either dutogliptin 400 mg once daily or placebo (1:1 ratio). During the study, all patients will be receiving background therapy with pioglitazone. Dutogliptin 400 mg or placebo will be administered orally once daily with or without food. Dietary and exercise advice will be provided to the patients. Glucose monitoring at home will be required; results will be used for safety monitoring but not for assessing efficacy. Efficacy analyses will be performed based on the Intent-to-Treat Population. The primary efficacy parameter is the change from baseline in HbA1c at Visit 8 (last observation carried forward [LOCF]). Between?treatment group differences for this parameter will be analyzed using an analysis-of-covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment group and country as factors and baseline HbA1c as a covariate.
