Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bexagliflozin compared to glimepiride as an add-on therapy to metformin in lowering hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Primary Outcome

The primary objective is to demonstrate that bexagliflozin is non-inferior to glimepiride by evaluating the treatment effect on HbA1c reduction at week 60 in subjects whose T2DM is inadequately controlled by metformin. The least square mean (LSM) change from baseline to Week 60 was analyzed using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) analysis of covariance model (ANCOVA).
