Trial overview
Official title: A Randomized, Placebo Controlled, Repeat Dose, Double Blind (sponsor unblind) Study Investigating Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of GSK2330672 Administered with Metformin to Type 2 Diabetes Patients
Trial description: This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of GSK2330672 compared to sitagliptin when administered with metformin for 14 days to subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Approximately 72 male and female subjects aged 30-64 years with T2DM and currently taking metformin will be recruited for this study. Eligible subjects will begin a run-in period of 13-15 days to stabilize on metformin 850 milligram (mg) twice a day (BID). Subjects will then be randomized to GSK2330672 10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 90 mg, matching placebo or open-label sitagliptin 50 mg for 14 days BID. Subjects will return for a follow-up visit 7-10 days after discharge.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Male or female between 30 and 64 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent
- Subjects with a diagnosis of T2DM for at least 3 months prior to screening, taking metformin for at least 4 weeks prior to screening, taking a metformin daily dose of>= 1000 mg and having an Glycosolated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) value of 7-11% inclusive at screening. The investigator should make an effort to obtain documentation of medical history or prescription of metformin to substantiate the diagnosis of T2DM
- Fasting plasma glucose <280 milligram per deciliter (mg/dl) at screening. A subject with a fasting plasma glucose at Day 1 that is more than 100 mg/dl lower than the screening value must not be randomized
- All T2DM subjects must meet the label recommendations for metformin and sitagliptin, including: Adequate renal function, as evidenced by an estimated glomerular filtration rate >= 80 milliliter per minute (mL/min) using the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation or chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula in the study procedures manual (SPM); No conditions which make hypoxia, dehydration, or sepsis likely; No cardiac disease (including no history of myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome, or heart failure)
- Body mass index (BMI) within the range 24 – 40 kilogram per meter square (kg/m^2) (inclusive)
- Other than T2DM, subjects should be in good general health with (in the opinion of the investigator) no clinically significant and relevant abnormalities of medical history or physical examination that would introduce additional risk factors or interfere with study procedures or objectives, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, vital signs, and laboratory tests
- A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of non-childbearing potential defined as: Pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy [for this definition, “documented” refers to the outcome of the investigator's/designee’s review of the subject's medical history for study eligibility, as obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject’s medical records]; OR Postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea. In questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40 million international units (MlU)/mL and estradiol < 40 picogram (pg)/mL (<147 picomol per liter) is confirmatory. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods as described by the Investigator/designee, if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method
- Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the contraception methods as described by the Investigator/designee. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until the follow-up visit
- Subjects must be willing to discontinue their usual dose of metformin and take the study dose of 850 mg immediate release formulation metformin BID for the 13-15 day run-in period and the 2-week treatment period
- Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form
Exclusion criteria:
- The use of approved non-metformin anti-diabetic agents within 3 months of the screening visit
- Hypoglycemia unawareness. T2DM subjects are excluded if, in the opinion of the investigator, they have significant hypoglycemia unawareness (for example, no symptoms of hypoglycemia when the blood glucose level is <70 mg/dl)
- Current or chronic history of liver disease, or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome). Subjects with a history of cholelithiasis, biliary colic, inflammatory gall bladder disease and/or cholestatic liver disease are excluded, unless this results in curative cholecystectomy 3 months or more before screening and with the approval of the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Monitor
- History of chronic or acute pancreatitis. Approval from the GSK Medical Monitor must be obtained for subjects with a past history of pancreatitis more than 12 months from the start of the Treatment Period (subjects with a history of pancreatitis within 12 months prior to the start of the Treatment Period are excluded). NOTE: Subjects with a lipase value above the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening are excluded. A single repeat assessment is allowed within 3 days of the original test
- History of Gastrointestinal (GI) disease (e.g., irritable bowel disease, chronic or current diarrhea, inflamed bowel, steatorrhoea/fat malabsorption, celiac disease, symptomatic lactose intolerance, small bowel resection). Subjects with gastroparesis requiring treatment are excluded. Subjects with history of prolapsed or bleeding haemorrhoids within 1 month of screening are excluded unless approved by the GSK Medical Monitor

If systolic pressure >140 mmHg or diastolic pressure >90 mmHg, a single repeat is allowed within 1 hour. Subjects whose blood pressure is well-controlled by taking anti-hypertensive medications (e.g., beta blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, calcium channel blockers, and thiazide diuretics) are permitted
- History of untreated pernicious anemia or who have laboratory parameters suggestive of subclinical megaloblastic anemia (e.g., increased mean corpuscular volume [MCV] with low red blood cells [RBC] count and/or haemoglobin [Hb] level).
- Thyroid disease: Uncorrected Thyroid Dysfunction as Fasting plasma thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) outside of the normal range, as determined at the screening visit. Subjects on stable thyroid replacement therapy and with TSH in the normal range are eligible if approved by the GSK Medical Monitor. Unevaluated thyroid nodule or goiter at screening
- History of regular alcohol consumption within 6 months of the study defined as: An average weekly intake of >14 drinks for males or >7 drinks for females. One drink is equivalent to 12 gram (g) of alcohol: 12 ounces (360 mL) of beer, 5 ounces (150 mL) of wine or 1.5 ounces (45 mL) of 80 proof distilled spirits
- History of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
- History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof, or a history of drug or other allergy (including other Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV [DPP-IV] inhibitors) that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation

Approval from the GSK Medical Monitor must be obtained for subjects with a past history of pancreatitis more than 12 months from the start of the treatment period (subjects with a history of pancreatitis within 12 months prior to the start of the treatment period are excluded). Subjects taking statins, ezetimibe, or Vytorin are permitted in the study. Subjects taking other lipid therapies, including but not limited to niacin, bile acid sequestrants and/or fibrates are not eligible
