A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Effect of Taspoglutide Compared to Placebo, in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Inadequately Controlled With Diet and Exercise
This 3 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared
to placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with diet and
exercise. Patients will be randomized to one of 3 treatment arms: taspoglutide 10mg sc once
weekly, taspoglutide 20mg sc once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg sc once weekly)
or placebo. After the first 24 weeks patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide
10mg once weekly or taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg once
weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 1 year, and the target sample size is
100-500 individuals.
