Primary outcomes

  1. HbA1c Change From Baseline in Patients With Mild or Moderate Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Baseline and 24 weeks

    Change from baseline in HbA1c after 24 weeks, for patients with mild or moderate renal impairment.

    Note adjusted means are provided.

  2. HbA1c Change From Baseline in Patients With Mild Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Baseline and 24 weeks

    Change from baseline in HbA1c after 24 weeks, for patients with mild renal impairment.

    Note adjusted means are provided.

  3. HbA1c Change From Baseline in Patients With Moderate Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Baseline and 24 weeks

    Change from baseline in HbA1c after 24 weeks, for patients with moderate renal impairment.

    Note adjusted means are provided.

Other outcomes

  1. Hypoglycaemic Events

    Time frame: From first drug administration until 7 days after last trial medication intake, up to 458 days

    Percentage of patients who experienced a hypoglycaemic event. A hypoglycaemic event was regarded as confirmed if it was documented as an adverse event with plasma glucose values <= 70 mg/dL (<=3.9mmol/L) measured or with a documentation that the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon or other resuscitative action had been required.
