E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that once-weekly injections of LY2428757 given to patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone, or metformin monotherapy, produces a significant decrease in the mean HbA1c from baseline to endpoint at 12 weeks as compared to placebo. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•Evaluate the safety and tolerability of LY2428757 given once-weekly for 12 weeks in patients with T2DM. •Evaluate and compare the percentage of patients requiring study discontinuation due to treatment failure for both LY2428757 and placebo. •Establish the dose response relationship for change in HbA1c in patients with T2DM given once-weekly LY2428757 with or without metformin. •Evaluate and compare the effects of LY2428757 and placebo on change in weight from baseline to endpoint. •Evaluate and compare the effects of LY2428757 and placebo on fasting and post-prandial plasma glucose levels and insulin secretory response. •Evaluate the population pharmacokinetics (popPK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of LY2428757. •Evaluate the frequency and consequences of immune reactions to LY2428757. •Evaluate and compare the effects of LY2428757 and placebo on fasting lipid and lipoprotein values.

E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
1. Protocol Addendum I1I-MC-GECD(2), A 12-Week, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of LY2428757 in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, dated 11 September 2008 The primary objective is to collect and store samples of blood, plasma, and serum for future research to evaluate genetic variants and biomarkers that may be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus and/or response to treatment with LY2428757. The secondary objective is to utilize stored samples for future research to evaluate biomarkers of cardiovascular risk. This study is optional for patients participating in the main study.
2. Protocol Sample Banking Addendum I1I-MC-GECD(1), A 12-Week, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of LY2428757 in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, dated 11 September 2008 Eli Lilly and Company has established a program, Combined Specimen Banking (CSB), to bank samples (collectively called Banked Samples) from patients enrolled in studies sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company. The Banked Samples are collected and banked for research to identify the genes, gene products, and/or biochemical markers associated with diseases and/or response to clinical trial medication or other medication taken during the trial. For example, in Study I1I-MC-GECD (GECD), the samples collected from patients will be used to identify genetic and/or protein and/or biochemical markers related to LY2428757 and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study is optional for patients participating in the main study.

Other forms of contraception that can be combined with 1 of the above are male latex condom with or without spermicide, diaphragm with spermicide, cervical cap with spermicide, or vaginal sponge. - Have a body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 40 kg/m2, inclusive at Visit 1. - Weight stable (±5 kg) during the 3 months before Visit 1 (by patient self-report). - In the investigator’s opinion, are well motivated, capable, and willing to • perform self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) • complete study diary/ies, as required for this protocol • are receptive to continuing their prestudy diet, activity levels, and follow simple dietary advice as appropriate • comply with the required study and dosing visits. - Have given written informed consent to participate in this study in accordance with local regulations and the Ethical Review Board (ERB) governing the study site. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
- Use of insulin or any antidiabetic agent other than metformin during the 2 months before Visit (V) 1. - In the opinion of the investigator, have a gastrointestinal disease that significantly impacts gastric empting or motility or have undergone bariatric surgery. - Have had more than 1 episode of severe hypoglycemia, as defined in the Abbreviation and Definitions section of this protocol, within 6 months before entry into the study, or is currently diagnosed with having hypoglycemia unawareness. - Have had 2 or more emergency room visits or hospitalizations due to poor glucose control in the past 6 months. -Are currently taking prescription or over-the-counter medications to promote weight loss. - Have a history of acute or chronic pancreatitis or elevation of serum lipase (greater than 2 times the upper limit of normal). -Women who are breastfeeding. - In the last 2 years, have known or suspected cardiac autonomic neuropathy, based on clinical signs, symptoms, or appropriate diagnostic testing. - Have cardiac disease with functional status that is NYHA Class II, III, or IV or a history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, coronary artery bypass graft, percutaneous coronary intervention, transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident or decompensated congestive heart failure in the past 6 months. - Have poorly controlled hypertension at V1 or V2, malignant hypertension, renal artery stenosis, and/or evidence of labile blood pressure including symptomatic postural hypotension. Doses of antihypertensive medications must be stable for 30 days before randomization. -Have resting tachycardia at V1 or V2 or a history of a supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, or other cardiac arrhythmia that, in the opinion of the investigator, may preclude the patient from participating in the protocol. - Have an EKG considered by the investigator to be outside of normal limits and relevant for interpretation or indicating cardiac disease at V1. The following conduction abnormalities may confound QTc analysis and should be avoided: second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, delayed intraventricular conduction with QRS >120 msec, left bundle branch block, complete right bundle branch block, or Wolff-Parkinson-White. A QTc interval greater than450 msec in men and greater than 470 in women or a PR interval more than 220 msec are specifically excluded. - Personal or family history of long QT syndrome, family history of sudden death in a first-degree relative before age 40, or personal history of unexplained syncope within the last year.
