About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Phase 3 Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Saxagliptin in Combination With Glyburide in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Who Have Inadequate Glycemic Control With Glyburide Alone
The purpose of this trial is to understand if adding saxagliptin to a sulfonylurea is safe and works better than increasing the amount of sulfonylurea a patient takes
Read the detailed description
All subjects will participate in a lead-in period, and qualifying subjects will continue into a short-term randomized treatment period. Subjects who complete the short-term period will be eligible to enter the long term extension period. Also, subjects in the short-term period who have an elevated blood sugar that requires additional medication for blood sugar control (defined as rescue) will be eligible to enter the long-term treatment extension period where they will receive metformin.Rescue treatment with metformin is also available during the long-term extension period for subjects who meet glycemic criteria.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Saxagliptin, Glyburide and Metformin in people with Diabetes, run by AstraZeneca at 115 sites in 13 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 115 sites in United States, Brazil, Mexico, Israel, South Korea and 8 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Sep 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (A1C) at Week 24 (time frame: Baseline, Week 24). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00313313, which also lists 6 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 May 2015.
