Study Arms:
- Ertugliflozin 5 mg (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): Ertugliflozin 5 mg oral and matching placebo for ertugliflozin 10 mg, oral, once daily for 26 weeks, while maintaining metformin at a stable dose (\>=1500 mg/day). Glycemic rescue therapy with open-label glimepiride was initiated in participants with glucose values exceeding protocol-specified values.
- Ertugliflozin 15 mg (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): Ertugliflozin 15 mg (ertugliflozin 5 mg + ertugliflozin 10 mg) administered orally once daily for 26 weeks, while maintaining metformin at a stable dose (\>=1500 mg/day). Glycemic rescue therapy with open-label glimepiride was initiated in participants with glucose values exceeding protocol-specified values.
- Placebo (Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR): Placebo matching ertugliflozin administered orally once daily for 26 weeks, while maintaining metformin at a stable dose (\>=1500 mg/day). Glycemic rescue therapy with open-label glimepiride was initiated in participants with glucose values exceeding protocol-specified values.
