Official title
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, Multicenter, Multinational Study to Assess Glycemic Control With Rimonabant in Comparison With Glimepiride Over 1 Year in Overweight/Obese Type2 Diabetic Patients Not Adequately Controlled With Metformin
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary objective is to demonstrate, after 52 weeks of treatment, the non-inferiority of rimonabant 20 mg once daily (od) versus glimepiride od in reducing glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes not adequately controlled with metformin at a stable dose (≥ 1500 mg/day) for at least 3 months. The main secondary objectives are to assess the effect of rimonabant in comparison with glimepiride on body weight and HDL-Cholesterol and the long-term safety and tolerability of rimonabant in comparison with glimepiride.
