About

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of THR-1442 compared to Dapagliflozin as an add-on therapy to metformin in lowering hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Full description

Approximately 390 subjects with inadequately controlled T2DM on metformin were to be recruited from China. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive THR-1442 tablet, 20 mg, or Dapagliflozin tavlet,10 mg, in a ratio of 1:1 once daily for 24 weeks. Subjects were to continue taking metformin for the duration of the study.

Enrollment: 390 estimated patients
