Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Europe and North America. The aim of this trial is to compare the effect on blood sugar control of liraglutide or sitagliptin, both in combination with metformin, in subjects with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with metformin alone.

The trial has been extended by 52 weeks. The extension will consist of two 26-week periods:
  1. Week 27-52 after randomisation
  • All subjects will continue receiving sitagliptin or liraglutide at unchanged dose and dosing regimen.
  1. Week 53-78 after randomisation
  • Subjects receiving sitagliptin at the end of week 52 after randomisation will discontinue sitagliptin and will be randomised 1:1 to liraglutide 1.2 mg/day or liraglutide 1.8 mg/day. Liraglutide will be initiated at a dose of 0.6 mg/day, and increased to 1.2 mg/day or 1.8 mg/day in weekly intervals.

  • Subjects receiving liraglutide 1.2 mg/day or 1.8 mg/day at the end of week 52 after randomisation will continue the treatment at unchanged dose and dosing regimen. Trial completion is planned for June 2010.

Recruitment Details A total of 158 centres in 13 countries participated: Canada (11), Croatia (3), Germany (12), Ireland (5), Italy (8), Netherlands (8), Romania (4), Serbia (3), Slovakia (6), Slovenia (3), Spain (9), United Kingdom (20) and United States (66). Of the 158 sites approved by an Independent Ethics Committee, 151 actively screened and enrolled subjects.
Pre-assignment Detail Between screening and randomisation, eligible subjects were to continue their usual pre-study metformin dose and dosing frequency.

Title Mean Change From Baseline in Overall Treatment Satisfaction (OTS) at Week 26
Description The Overall Treatment Satisfaction is a sum of 6 items from the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, which is a self-assessment of treatment satisfaction. The scale of each sub-item goes from 0 (lowest satisfaction) to 6 (highest satisfaction) and the overall scale of OTS therefore goes from 0 to 36.
