Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to observe change of HbA1c over time from baseline to month 12. The ultimate goal of this study was to provide a local reference value to the physicians \& patients in the future when they consider initiating Vildagliptin and taking balance between efficacy, compliance, risk factors, convenience and medication cost.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change of Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline to Month 12
HbA1c is an integrated measure of average glucose concentration in plasma in the last 2-3 months. Blood samples were collected to analyze HbA1c
Baseline, Month 12 (weeK 52)
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Change of Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline to Month 3, 6, 9 and 12 (Based on MMRM Analysis)
Baseline, Month 3, 6, 9 and 12
Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) From Baseline to Month 3, 6, 9 and 12 (Based on MMRM Analysis)
Baseline, Month 3, 6, 9 and 12
Percentage of Patients Achieving Good Glycemic Control
Month 3, 6, 9, 12
Percentage of Overall Drug Compliance in 12 Months
Month 12
Number of Patients With Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events and Death as an Assessment of Overall Safety and Tolerability
Month 12

ACTIVE COMPARATORVildagliptin 50mg QD plus stabilized or maximum tolerated dose of Metformin
LAF237 (vildagliptin) 50mg twice daily (BID)
ACTIVE COMPARATORVildagliptin 50mg BID plus stabilized or maximum tolerated dose of Metformin

- HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) at Visit 1 greater than 7.0%
- With nearest documented record of HbA1c before Visit 1 greater than 7.0% after patient reached his/her maximum tolerated dose of Metformin
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with hepatic impairment, including patients with a pre-treatment alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \> 2.5 X the upper limit of normal at Visit 1
- Patients with moderate or severe renal impairment or end-stage-renal-disease (ESRD) on haemodialysis at the time of enrolment
- Patients with hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactose deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption
- Pregnant women or breastfeeding women at the time of enrolment
- Use of insulin or other oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) apart from Metformin in the past for T2DM treatment
