E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the effect of treatment with liraglutide compared to placebo for at least 3.5 year and up to 5 years on the incidence of cardiovascular events, as defined by the below primary and secondary endpoints, in adults with type 2 diabetes that are at high risk for cardiovascular events |
