Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Have had type 2 diabetes (T2D) for ≥6 months according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification
  • Have HbA1c of 7.0% to 10.0%, inclusive, as assessed by the central laboratory
  • Have been treated with stable doses of metformin for at least 3 months
  • Have a body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kilograms per square meter

Exclusion criteria

  • Have type 1 diabetes (T1D)
  • Have used any glucose-lowering medication other than metformin 3 months prior to study entry or during screening/lead-in period or have used any glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) at any time in the past
  • Have had any of the following cardiovascular conditions: acute myocardial infarction (MI), New York Heart Association Class III or Class IV heart failure, or cerebrovascular accident (stroke)
  • Have acute or chronic hepatitis, signs and symptoms of any other liver disease other than nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level >2.5 times the upper limit of the reference range, as determined by the central laboratory at study entry; participants with NAFLD are eligible for participation in this trial
  • Have had chronic or acute pancreatitis any time prior to study entry
  • Have an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <45 milliliters/minute/1.73 square meter, calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) equation

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 18

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

    Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, treatment, time, treatment*time as fixed effects.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With HbA1c of <7.0%

    Time frame: Week 18

    Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Glucose (FSG)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 18

    Fasting serum glucose (FSG) is a test to determine how much glucose (sugar) is in a serum sample after an overnight fast. Least Squares (LS) means was determined by MMRM methodology with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, baseline HbA1c strata using >=8% as cutoff, treatment, time, treatment*time as fixed effects.

  3. Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 18

    Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, baseline HbA1c strata using >=8% as cutoff, treatment, time, treatment*time as fixed effects.

  4. Percentage of Participants Discontinuing Study Drug Due to Adverse Events

    Time frame: Baseline through Week 18

    Adverse event (AE) defined as any unfavorable medical event, newly emerged or a deterioration of a preexisting condition, in other words any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a pharmaceutical product, without regard to the possibility of a causal relationship, that occurred after the visit for informed consent and up to the visit for completion of administration, or discontinuation.

  5. Rate of Documented Symptomatic Hypoglycemia

    Time frame: Week 18

    Hypoglycemic events (HE) were classified as severe, documented symptomatic (defined as an HE with typical symptoms of hypoglycemia and a blood glucose level of ≤3.9 millimoles per liter [mmol/L]). Hypoglycemia rate per 30 days was summarized at each visit by treatment group. The rate of hypoglycemia was analyzed using a generalized estimation equations model with a negative binomial distribution and a Log link. LS mean was determined by MMRM methodology with baseline hypoglycemia rate, pooled country, HbA1c at Baseline, treatment, with log of exposure in days divided by 365.25 as the offset.

  6. Pharmacokinetics (PK): The Maximum Drug Concentration at Steady State (Cmax,ss) of Dulaglutide

    Time frame: 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and early termination

    Plasma samples for PK analysis were combined measure obtained from 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and until early termination of the visit. Cmax takes all time points post dose into account and one value was reported.

  7. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve at Steady State From Time Zero to 168 Hours (AUC[0-168], ss) of Dulaglutide

    Time frame: 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and early termination

    AUC[0-168h] is a combined measure obtained from 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and until early termination of the visit.
