Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 12
Baseline (Week 0) and Week 12

HbA1c is used to show in participants with diabetes, how well their diabetes is being controlled. The HbA1c test gives the average blood glucose levels over the pervious two to three months. The sample for HbA1c assessment was collected at Visit 5 (Week 0) and Visit 12 (Week 12). Baseline value was defined as the assessment done at Week 0. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value (Week 0) from the individual post-Baseline (Week 12) value. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model for analysis was used with the terms for gender, prior therapy (diet \& exercise/monotherapy), treatment, region and Baseline measurement (continuous covariate). Last observation carried forward (LOCF) dataset defined as carrying forward of the last valid observation recorded on-treatment (scheduled or unscheduled) for participants who withdrew from the study to all remaining main phase visits was used. Adjusted mean is reported as least square (LS) mean.

ArmTypeDescription
PlaceboPLACEBO_COMPARATORParticipants received oral dose of matching placebo capsule to denagliptin (DEN) once daily in the morning, 30 minutes (min) prior to breakfast during the main phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants who were randomized to placebo in the main phase 12-weeks treatment period received oral dose of DEN 2.5 milligram (mg) once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of placebo to the participants.
DEN 2.5 mgEXPERIMENTALParticipants received oral dose of DEN 2.5 mg capsule once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the main phase/extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of DEN 2.5 mg to the participants.
DEN 7.5 mgEXPERIMENTALParticipants received oral dose of DEN 7.5 mg capsule once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the main phase/extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of DEN 7.5 mg to the participants.
DEN 15 mgEXPERIMENTALParticipants received oral dose of DEN 15 mg capsule once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the main phase/extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of DEN 15 mg to the participants.
DEN 30 mgEXPERIMENTALParticipants received oral dose of DEN 30 mg capsule once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the main phase/extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of DEN 30 mg to the participants.
DEN 45 mgEXPERIMENTALParticipants received oral dose of DEN 45 mg capsule once daily in the morning, 30 min prior to breakfast during the main phase/extension phase 12-weeks treatment period. Participants were dispensed 3 bottles (bottle A, B and C) and were instructed to take 1 capsule daily from each bottle such that taking 1 capsule from each bottle daily provided the appropriate dose of DEN 45 mg to the participants.

What is DEN used for in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus?

DEN is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is currently in Phase 2 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The drug is intended to be taken orally, as indicated by its small molecule modality.

Who makes DEN?

DEN is being developed by GSK plc, a global biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker GSK. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DEN in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

What phase is DEN in?

DEN is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 2 trial, and the drug remains investigational, meaning it has not yet received approval from regulatory agencies. Further clinical studies would be needed to support any potential regulatory submission.

What clinical trials is DEN in?

DEN has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial with the identifier NCT00111800. This trial, titled 'A New Oral Treatment For Type II Diabetes Mellitus,' enrolled 375 participants with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus across multiple countries, including the United States, Canada, and several European nations.

Is DEN the same as any other drug?

DEN is the primary name used for this investigational drug in clinical development. No alternative names have been disclosed in the available information. The drug is being studied under the identifier DEN in the context of its Phase 2 trial for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
