Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to learn if BMS-477118 (Saxagliptin) as part of a triple combination therapy can improve (decrease) hemoglobin A1c in patients with type 2 diabetes after 24 weeks of treatment compared to a 2 drug oral antidiabetic therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Week 24 ]
    HbA1c was measured as percent of hemoglobin by a central laboratory. Baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. HbA1c measurements were obtained at Week 24 in the double-blind period, including observations prior to rescue.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in 2-hour Post Prandial Glucose (PPG) From a Liquid Meal Tolerance Test (MTT) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Week 24 ]
    Baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. PPG measurements were obtained at Week 24 in the double-blind period, including observations prior to rescue.

  2. Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 24 [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Week 24 ]
    Baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. FPG measurements were obtained at Week 24 in the double-blind period, including observations prior to rescue.

  3. Percentage of Participants Achieving a Therapeutic Glycemic Response (Hemoglobin A1c [HbA1C]) <7.0% at Week 24 (Last Observation Carried Forward [LOCF]) [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Week 24 ]
    Therapeutic glycemic response is defined as HbA1c <7.0%. Data after rescue medication was excluded from this analysis. HbA1c was measured as a percent of hemoglobin.

Exclusion Criteria

  1. Target Disease Exceptions

    1. History of diabetes insipidus

    3. Other central laboratory test findings:

      • Abnormal free T4 values. Abnormal thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) value at screening will be further evaluated by free T4. Subjects with abnormal free T4 values will be excluded.

  5. Sex and Reproductive Status

    a) Women who are pregnant

  6. Other Exclusion Criteria

    1. Prisoners or subjects who are involuntarily incarcerated.
