Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Summary: the objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dual add-on therapy with gemigliptin 50 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg added to metformin compared to add-on therapy with gemigliptin 50 mg in combination with metformin or dapagliflozin 10 mg in combination with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have inadequate glycemic control on metformin alone
