| Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus | Drug: Bexagliflozin Drug: Placebo | Phase 3 |
The phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group study was conducted at investigative sites in the US, Japan, France and Spain. Approximately 300 subjects were to be randomly assigned to receive bexagliflozin tablets, 20 mg, or placebo in equal ratio for 24 weeks.
The study was to enrolled male and female participants who had T2DM with an HbA1c between 7.0 and 10.5% (inclusive) and stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) as defined by an eGFR of ≥ 30 and< 60 mL min-1 per 1.73 m2 at the screening visit and one additional time of measurement between 1 and 12 months prior to screening. Subjects were either treatment naïve or were treated with a stable regimen of anti-diabetic medications.
All eligible subjects were to enter a one-week single-blind, placebo run-in period. Subjects who were compliant in taking run-in medication, had screening eGFR ≥ 30 and< 60 mL min-1 per 1.73 m2, and had stable GFR (no more than 20% change in eGFR between a historical value and the value determined at the screening visit) were eligible for randomization. Randomization was stratified by HbA1c level (7.0 to 8.5% or 8.6 to 10.5%), anti-diabetic treatment regimen and eGFR (30 - 44 mL min-1 per 1.73 m2 or 45 - 59 mL min-1 per 1.73 m2). At least 135 subjects in each of the eGFR groups were planned.
Study subjects were to schedule clinic visits at weeks 2, 6, 12, 18, and 24 for safety and efficacy evaluation. At weeks 2 and 18, the visits were to be conducted via phone interviews unless an in-person visit was considered clinically advisable. A final follow-up visit was to be conducted at week 26 or two weeks after the last dose of investigational product if the subject withdrew prior to week 24.

- Change From Baseline in HbA1c at 24 Weeks [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]The primary efficacy objective of this trial is to evaluate the placebo-adjusted change in HbA1c from baseline after 24 weeks of treatment with 20 mg bexagliflozin tablets in type 2 diabetic subjects with moderate renal impairment.
- Change in Body Weight From Baseline to Week 24 in Subjects With a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of bexagliflozin 20 mg on the placebo-adjusted change in BMI from baseline to week 24 in subjects with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2.
- Change From Baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) in Subjects With Baseline SBP ≥ 130 mm Hg at Week 24 [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of bexagliflozin 20 mg on the placebo-adjusted change from baseline in SBP to in subjects with baseline SBP ≥ 130 mm Hg at Week 24.
- Change From Baseline in HbA1c in Subjects With Stage 3a CKD (eGFR 45 to 59 mL/Min/1.73 m2) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of bexagliflozin 20 mg on the placebo-adjusted change in HbA1c from baseline in subjects with stage 3a CKD (eGFR 45 to 59 mL/min/1.73 m2) at week 24.
- Change From Baseline in HbA1c in Subjects With Stage 3b CKD (eGFR 30 to 44 mL/Min/1.73 m2) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of bexagliflozin 20 mg on the placebo-adjusted change in HbA1c from baseline in subjects with stage 3b CKD (eGFR 30 to 44 mL/min/1.73 m2) at week 24.

| Ages Eligible for Study: | 20 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
| Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Each subject was required to meet the following criteria at the time of enrollment to be eligible for the study:
- To have been male or non-pregnant female ≥ 20 years of age. Women of childbearing potential were required to agree to use contraception throughout the study to avoid any possible pregnancy. Females who were surgically sterile (hysterectomy, oophorectomy) or postmenopausal (absence of menses for greater than 12 months and age > 45 years) were eligible if they tested negative on the urine pregnancy test.
- To have had a diagnosis of T2DM with an HbA1c between 7.0 and 10.5% (inclusive) at the time of screening.
- To have been treatment naïve or to have been treated with a stable regimen of anti-diabetic medications. At the time of screening, the doses and frequency of all anti-diabetic medications were to have been stable for 8 weeks.
- To have had an eGFR ≥ 30 and < 60 mL min-1 per 1.73 m2 at 2 time points: screening (V1), and 1 additional time point between 1 and 12 months of screening (may be obtained from available medical records). The eGFR was calculated by the MDRD equation.
- To have had a body mass index (BMI) ≤ 45 kg per m2 (inclusive).
- To have been taking stable doses of medications for hypertension or hyperlipidemia (if applicable) for at least 30 days prior to randomization
- To have had stable eGFR between the historic value and day of screening (no more than 20% change in eGFR between the most recent historical value and the value determined at the screening visit V1).
