Using the efficacy estimand, the DU 3 mg and 4.5 mg doses were superior to the DU 1.5 mg dose for A1C change from BL (1.5 mg, 1.53%; 3 mg, 1.71% [p=0.003]; 4.5 mg, 1.87% [p<0.001]),

The primary objective was to demonstrate superiority of once-weekly DU 3 mg and/or 4.5 mg to DU 1.5 mg for A1C change from baseline (BL) at 36 weeks (wks) in patients (pts) with inadequately controlled T2D on metformin therapy.
Patients were randomized (1:1:1) to once-weekly DU 1.5 mg (n=612), DU 3 mg (n=616), and DU 4.5 mg (n=614).
Two estimands were defined for efficacy analyses: an efficacy estimand (data on-treatment without rescue medication) and a treatment-regimen estimand (all data regardless of adherence or initiation of rescue).
