Efficacy and Safety of Triple Fixed Dose Combination of Dapagliflozin + Sitagliptin + Metformin IR in Indian Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Randomized, Phase 3 Study in Comparison with Dual FDC Sitagliptin + Metformin IR.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a triple fixed-dose combination (FDC) of dapagliflozin, sitagliptin, and immediate-release metformin (DAPA + SITA + MET IR) compared to dual FDCs in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods

This Phase 3, randomized, open-label study included eligible patients with T2DM who were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a triple FDC of DAPA + SITA + MET IR (5 + 50 + 500/1000 mg) or a dual FDC of sitagliptin and MET IR (SITA + MET IR; 50 + 500/1000 mg), administered twice daily for 16 weeks. The primary endpoint was the mean change in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to Week 16.

Results

The mean baseline HbA1c was ~ 9% in both arms. Adjusted mean reduction in HbA1c from
