Safety and Efficacy of Dapagliflozin in Asian T2DM Subjects With Inadequate Glycemic Control on Metformin/Saxagliptin

Phase 3TerminatedNCT03608358

AstraZeneca41 enrolled

Overview

This is a 24-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel group, phase 3 study designed to evaluate if the safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin 5 mg or 10 mg added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin is superior to placebo added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin in reducing hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).

This study will be conducted in approximately 36 sites in Asian countries. Approximately 1004 subjects will be screened and 342 randomized. Prior to the screening, subjects of Stratum A should have a stable dose of metformin (≥1500 mg/day or a maximal tolerated dose) for at least 8 weeks. And subjects of Stratum B should have a stable dose of metformin (≥1500 mg/day or a maximal tolerated dose) AND a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor at maximum approved dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening. Eligible subjects who complete the screening visit will enter the lead-in period, which includes open-label saxagliptin 5 mg and metformin treatment for 16 weeks in Stratum A or 8 weeks in Stratum B. At randomization visit, eligible subjects will be randomized into 1 of 3 treatment groups in a 1:1:1 ratio, receiving blinded dapagliflozin 5 mg, 10 mg or placebo plus metformin and saxagliptin 5 mg treatment for 24 weeks.

History of diabetes insipidus and type 1 diabetes 3. History of diabetic ketoacidosis requiring medical intervention within 1 month prior to screening 4. Subjects with moderate to severe renal impairment (defined as estimate glomerular filtration rate calculated by the MDRD Formula \< 60mL/min/1.73 m\^2 or serum creatinine ≥ 1.5 mg/dL in males or ≥ 1.4 mg/dL in females) or end-stage renal disease 5. History of unstable or rapidly progressing renal disease 6. Subjects with significant hepatic disease or severe hepatic impairment, or positive serologic evidence of current infectious liver disease 7. Prohibited Treatment and Therapies * Administration of any anti-hyperglycemic therapy \[other than metformin, or Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors\] for more than 14 days (consecutive or not) during the 8 weeks prior to screening * Any use of Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor within 8 weeks prior to screening * Prescription and over-the-counter weight loss medications within 3 months prior to screening * Current treatment with potent cytochrome P450 3A4/5 inhibitors 8.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mean change from baseline in HbA1c at Week 24

To compare the mean change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with dapagliflozin 5 mg or dapagliflozin 10 mg added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin versus placebo added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin after 24 weeks of oral administration of double-blind treatment

Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

Secondary Outcomes

Mean change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) at Week 24

To compare the mean change from baseline in FPG achieved with dapagliflozin 5 mg or dapagliflozin 10 mg added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin versus placebo added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin after 24 weeks of oral administration of double-blind treatment

Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

Mean change in 2-hour postprandial glucose during a meal tolerance test (2-hour MTT) at Week 24

To compare the mean change from baseline in 2-hour postprandial glucose from a meal tolerance test (2-hour MTT) achieved with dapagliflozin 5 mg or dapagliflozin 10 mg added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin versus placebo added to saxagliptin 5 mg plus metformin after 24 weeks of oral administration of double-blind treatment
