Study Arms (2)

Saxagliptin 5mg

EXPERIMENTAL

Saxagliptin 5mg, administered to subjects with Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with insulin alone or with insulin plus metformin

Drug: Saxagliptin 5mg

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Placebo administered to subjects with Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with insulin alone or with insulin plus metformin

Drug: Placebo for Saxagliptin

Interventions

Saxagliptin 5mg (plus stable insulin dose), given orally once daily (24 weeks); subjects stratified by use of stable metformin dose; flexible insulin dose (as needed for rescue).

Also known as: Insulin: intermediate-acting or basal or premixed ( include short- or rapid-acting insulin as one component). ≥20 unit/day, ≤150 units/day, Metformin: Glucophage, 500-2500mg/day
Saxagliptin 5mg

Placebo tablets (plus stable insulin dose), given orally once daily (24 weeks); subjects stratified by use of stable metformin dose; flexible insulin dose (as needed for rescue).

Also known as: Insulin: intermediate-acting or basal or premixed ( include short- or rapid-acting insulin as one component). ≥20 unit/day, ≤150 units/day, Metformin: Glucophage, 500-2500mg/day

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 100 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Provision of informed consent before participating in the study.
  • Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
  • Inadequate glycemic control (screening: HbA1c ≥7.5% and ≤11.0% and FPG\<270 mg/dL (15mmol/L). At Day -4 visit, HbA1c ≥7.5% and ≤10.5%. and FPG\<270 mg/dL (15mmol/L)).
  • On a stable dose of insulin for 8 weeks or longer prior to screening.
  • If taking metformin, subjects should have been taking the same daily dose for 8 weeks or longer prior to screening.
  • Insulin type should be intermediate-acting or long-acting (basal) or premixed (premixed formulation may include short- or rapid-acting insulin as one component).
  • Body mass index ≤45 kg/m\^2.

You may not qualify if:

  • Women of childbearing potential unable or unwilling to use acceptable birth control.
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Symptoms of poorly controlled diabetes. including but not limited to, marked polyuria and polydipsia with greater than 10% weight loss during the last three months prior to screening or other signs and symptoms.
  • Significant cardiovascular history defined as: myocardial infarction, coronary angioplasty or bypass graft, valvular disease or repair, unstable clinical significant arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris, transient ischemic attack, or cerebrovascular accident.
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Chronic or repeated intermittent corticosteroid treatment (subjects receiving stable doses of replacement corticosteroid (except dexamethasone) therapy may be enrolled).
  • History of unstable or rapidly progressing renal disease.
  • History of alcohol or drug abuse within the previous year.
  • Unstable major psychiatric disorders.
  • History of hemoglobinopathies
  • Immunocompromised status
  • Severe liver disease.
  • In subjects treated with insulin alone a calculated creatinine clearance \<50 ml/min. In patients treated with insulin in combination with metformin a calculated creatinine clearance \<60 ml/min or serum creatinine \> 1.5 mg/dL in males or \> 1.4mg/dL in females.
  • Anemia
