    An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered an investigational (medicinal) product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an important medical event.

  7. AEs of Special Interest

    See Outcome Measure 16 for a definition of AEs. AEs of clinical interest for saxagliptin were defined as those relating to the following:skin disorders, infection-related AEs (system organ class [SOC]: Infections and Infestations), thrombocytopenia, lymphopenia, hypoglycemia, cardiovascular AEs indicative of acute cardiovascular events, localized edema, fractures, pancreatitis, and AEs of hypersensitivity.

    Laboratory abnormalities=any result that is clinically significant, met the definition of an SAE, required discontinuation or interruption of study drug, or required specific corrective therapy. Upper normal (UN)/lower normal (LN) values: leukocytes UN, 11.40x10^3 c/uL; absolute neutrophils/bands LN, 1.500x10^3 c/uL; aspartate aminotransferase UN, 48 U/L; alanine aminotransferase UN, 67 U/L; blood urea nitrogen UN, 20.0 mg/dL; creatine kinase UN, 350 U/L; lactate dehydrogenase UN, 249 U/L.

  9. Number of Participants With Marked Urinalysis Abnormalities

    Time frame: Within 21 days of study Day 1, Days 1-3 of Periods 1, 2, 3, and 4.

    Protein, Urine Abnormality: if value >= 2+ (or if pretreatment value >= 1+, then >= 2 * pretreatment). Glucose, Urine Abnormality: if value >= 2+ (or if pretreatment value >= 1+, then >= 2 * pretreatment). Blood, Urine Abnormality: if value >= 2+ (or if pretreatment value >= 1+, then >= 2 * pretreatment). White Blood Cell (WBC), Urine Abnormality: if value >= 2+ (or if pretreatment value >= 2+, then >= 4+). Red Blood Cell (RBC), Urine Abnormality: if value >= 2+ (or if pretreatment value >= 2+, then >= 4+). (The '+' is a normal lab result and refers to the magnitude of the finding.)

  10. Electrocardiogram (ECG), Vital Sign, and Physical Finding Abnormalities

    Time frame: At Screening (within 21 days of Study Day 1), Day -1 of Period 1 (ECG and Physical only), Day 1 of Periods 1-4 (Vitals only), at Study Discharge (Day 3 of Period 4) or Discontinuation
