ABSTRACT Aims: The efficacy and safety of canagliflozin, a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, were evaluated in Asian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled by metformin or metformin + sulphonylurea. Materials and methods: In this 18-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study, patients (N=676) received canagliflozin 100 or 300 mg or placebo once daily. The primary efficacy endpoint was change in HbA1c from baseline at week 18; additional endpoints included change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and percent change in body weight. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded throughout the study. Efficacy and safety were assessed in the overall population and in two strata based on background therapy. Results: At week 18, canagliflozin 100 and 300 mg provided significant reductions from baseline in HbA1c compared with placebo (–0.97%, –1.06%, and –0.47%, respectively; p 13.3 mmol/l (240 mg/dl); after week 12 through week 18, FPG >11.1 mmol/l (200 mg/dl)].

Study Endpoints and Assessments Efficacy and safety were evaluated in the overall population and in two strata based on background therapy (i.e. metformin alone or metformin + sulphonylurea). The primary

efficacy endpoint was the change in HbA1c from baseline to week 18. Other pre-specified efficacy endpoints included change from baseline in FPG and percent change in body weight at week 18. Change in systolic and diastolic BP, percent changes in fasting lipids, and the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c
