Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in HbA1c

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 40

    • Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A, measured to reflect average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.
    • Values represented under "Least Squares (LS) Mean" are model-based estimates (MBE) of the unconditional average treatment effect. MBE was calculated using a mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) with analysis country, treatment by time, baseline by time by treatment, and strata by time by treatment in the model. Strata was defined by joint levels of baseline HbA1c (≤ [less than or equal to] 8.0%, > [greater than] 8.0%) and prior use of any antihyperglycemic medication (yes or no). Variance-covariance structure for change from baseline was unstructured.

Secondary outcomes

    Time frame: Week 40

    Percentage of participants with an HbA1c target value of less than (<) 7.0% (53 millimoles per mole [mmol/mol]) was analysed by Logistic regression with analysis country, treatment by baseline and treatment by strata in the model. Strata were defined by joint levels of baseline HbA1c (≤8.0%, >8.0%) and prior use of any antihyperglycemic medication (yes or no).

  2. Percentage of Participants With an HbA1c Target Value of ≤6.5% (48 mmol/Mol)

    Time frame: Week 40

    Percentage of Participants with an HbA1c target value of less than or equal to (≤) 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) was analysed by Logistic regression with analysis country, treatment by baseline and treatment by strata in the model. Strata were defined by joint levels of baseline HbA1c (≤8.0%, >8.0%) and prior use of any antihyperglycemic medication (yes or no).

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

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 40

    Values represented under "Least Squares (LS) Mean" are model-based estimates (MBE) of the unconditional average treatment effect. MBE was calculated using a mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) with analysis country, treatment by time, baseline by time by treatment, and strata by time by treatment in the model. Strata was defined by joint levels of baseline HbA1c (≤ [less than or equal to] 8.0%, > [greater than] 8.0%) and prior use of any antihyperglycemic medication (yes or no). Variance-covariance structure for change from baseline was unstructured.

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 40

    Values represented under "LS Mean" are model-based estimates (MBE) of the unconditional average treatment effect. MBE was calculated using a MMRM with analysis country, treatment by time, baseline by time by treatment, and strata by time by treatment in the model. Strata was defined by joint levels of baseline HbA1c (≤8.0%, >8.0%) and prior use of any antihyperglycemic medication (yes or no). Variance-covariance structure for change from baseline was unstructured.

  5. Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 40

    Values represented under "LS Mean" are model-based estimates (MBE) of the unconditional average treatment effect. MBE was calculated using a MMRM with analysis country, treatment by time, baseline by time by treatment, and strata by time by treatment in the model.

MBE was calculated using a MMRM with analysis : log (Actual Measurement/Baseline) = country, treatment by time, log(baseline) by time by treatment, and strata by time by treatment in the model.

  11. Change From Baseline in Short Form-36 Health Survey Version 2 (SF-36v2) Acute Form (Physical-Component and Mental-Component) Scores

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 40

    The SF-36v2 is a participant-reported measure designed to assess health status using 36 items across 8 domains: Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional, and Mental Health. The physical functioning domain assesses limitations due to health "now," whereas the remaining domains assess functioning "in the past week." Each domain is scored individually, and information from these 8 domains is aggregated into 2 health component summary scores, the Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary. Items are answered on Likert scales of varying lengths (3-point, 5-point, or 6-point scales). Scoring of each domain and both summary scores are norm based and presented in the form of T-scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate better levels of function and/or better health. Range cannot be specified in norm-based scores.
