Title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 26-Week Multicenter Study With a 78-Week Extension To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety Of Ertugliflozin In Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus And Inadequate Glycemic Control On Metformin Monotherapy.
Brief Summary: This is an efficacy and safety study of ertugliflozin in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. The primary study hypothesis is that at Week 26, the mean reduction from baseline in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) for ertugliflozin is greater than that for placebo.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosis of T2DM in accordance to American Diabetes Association guidelines
* Participants must be receiving metformin monotherapy for less than 8 weeks prior to study participation or require change in their diabetes regimen to remain eligible to participate in the trial (including discontinuing anti-hyperglycemic agent \[AHA\] therapy) and must have a hemoglobin A1c of 7.0 to 10.5% (53-91 mmol/mol) after at least 8 weeks on a regimen of metformin monotherapy

Exclusion Criteria:

* History of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, arterial revascularization, stroke, transient ischemic attack, or New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III-IV heart failure within 3 months of study participation
* A clinically significant electrocardiogram abnormality
* A history of malignancy ≤5 years prior to study participation, except for adequately treated basal or squamous cell skin cancer or in situ cervical cancer
* A known hypersensitivity or intolerance to any sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor or glimepiride
* On a blood pressure or lipid altering medication that have not been on a stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to study participation
* A surgical procedure within 6 weeks prior to study participation or planned major surgery during the trial
* Donation of blood or blood products within 6 weeks of study participation or plans to donate blood or blood products at any time during the trial
* Pregnant or breast-feeding, or is expecting to conceive during the trial, including 14 days following the last dose of study drug
B: Inclusion criteria Patients between 18 and 80 years old with type 2 diabetes and insufficient glycemic control (HbA1c 7% to 10%) for whom metformin therapy is inappropriate (intolerability or contraindication)

Exclusion criteria Myocardial infarction, stroke or Transient ischaemic attack in last 6 months Treatment with rosiglitazone or pioglitazone, GLP-1 analogues, insulin or anti-obesity drugs in past 3 months Impaired hepatic function Severe renal impairment current treatment with systemic steroids change in dosage of thyroid hormones hereditary galactose intolerance
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients who are at least 18 years of age and not older than 78 with type 2 diabetes mellitus
D: Inclusion criteria:

1. Male and female patients with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and previously treated with metformin alone or with metformin and one other oral antidiabetic drug
2. Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) 6.0 - 9.0% at screening for patients treated with metformin and one other oral antidiabetic drug
3. HbA1c 6.5 - 10.0% at screening for patients treated with metformin alone
4. HbA1c 6.5 - 10.0% at beginning of the placebo run-in phase

Exclusion criteria:

1. Myocardial infarction, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
2. Impaired hepatic function
3. Renal failure or renal impairment
4. Treatment with rosiglitazone or pioglitazone within 6 months prior to screening
5. Treatment with insulin or glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogue/antagonists within 3 months prior to screening
