A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dapagliflozin With and Without Saxagliptin on Albuminuria, and to Investigate the Effect of Dapagliflozin and Saxagliptin on HbA1c in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and CKD

The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether dapagliflozin alone or in combination with saxagliptin can decrease albuminuria and improve glycemic control in patients with Type 2 diabetes, albuminuria and renal impairment (CKD). The study is planned to randomize a total of 450 patients (150 patients per treatment arm)

Primary outcomes

  1. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c): Comparison of Dapagliflozin 10 mg Plus Saxagliptin 2.5 mg and Placebo at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    HbA1c was analysed at baseline and every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. Only measurements prior to rescue or treatment discontinuation were analysed. The adjusted mean change from baseline at Week 24 was analysed using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model.

  2. Adjusted Mean Percent Change From Baseline in Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    UACR was analysed at baseline and every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. All measurements regardless of rescue medication or treatment discontinuation were analysed. UACR values were first transformed to logarithms and the results were based on exponentiation of model estimates and expressed as adjusted mean percent change from baseline at Week 24.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adjusted Mean Percent Change From Baseline in Total Body Weight at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    Total body weight was measured in kilograms (kg) at baseline and at Week 1 then every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. All measurements regardless of rescue medication or treatment discontinuation were analysed. Total body weight values were first transformed to logarithms and the results were based on exponentiation of model estimates and expressed as adjusted mean percent change from baseline at Week 24.

  2. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    FPG was analysed at baseline and Week 1 then every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. Only measurements prior to rescue or treatment discontinuation were analysed. The adjusted mean change from baseline at Week 24 was analysed using a MMRM model.

  3. Percentage of Patients Achieving at Least 30% Reduction in UACR at Week 24

    Time frame: From baseline up to Week 24

    The percentage of patients meeting the criteria of at least a 30% reduction in UACR, was analysed using a logistic regression model. If no measurement was available at Week 24 the last available post-baseline measurement was carried forward (Last Observation Carried Forward [LOCF]).

  4. Percentage of Patients Achieving a Reduction in HbA1c of Less Than 7.0% at Week 24

    Time frame: From baseline to Week 24

    The percentage of patients meeting the criteria of a less than 7% reduction in HbA1c, was analysed using a logistic regression model. If no measurement was available at Week 24 the last available post-baseline measurement was carried forward (LOCF). Only measurements prior to rescue or treatment discontinuation were analysed.

  5. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Seated Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    Seated SBP was analysed at baseline, Week 1 and every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. All measurements regardless of rescue medication or treatment discontinuation were analysed. The adjusted mean change from baseline at Week 24 was analysed using a MMRM model.

  6. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in HbA1c: Comparison of Dapagliflozin 10 mg and Placebo at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    HbA1c was analysed at baseline and every 4 weeks during the 24-week treatment period. Only measurements prior to rescue or treatment discontinuation were analysed. The adjusted mean change from baseline at Week 24 was analysed using a MMRM model.
