A Study To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety Of Ertugliflozin In Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus And Inadequate Glycemic Control On Metformin Monotherapy (MK-8835-007).

This is an efficacy and safety study of ertugliflozin in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. The primary study hypothesis is that at Week 26, the mean reduction from baseline in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) for ertugliflozin is greater than that for placebo.

Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 26 A1C minus the Week 0 A1C (which is estimated on average for each treatment group using a constrained longitudinal data analysis model, which allows for participants with missing data to be included in the analysis). Participants who met pre-specified glycemic criteria were rescued with oral tablets of open-label glimepiride or basal insulin injected subcutaneously, and dosed according to Investigator judgment. Per protocol, this data set excludes data for any participant after the initiation of glycemic rescue therapy.
