Study Arms:
- Sotagliflozin 400 mg + Metformin (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): Following a 2-week run-in period, sotagliflozin 400 mg was administered as 2 tablets, once daily, before the first meal of the day plus metformin as prescribed by the Principal Investigator for up to 26 weeks in the double-blind Core Treatment Period, and participants continued the same treatment in the double-blind Extension Period for up to 53 weeks.
- Placebo + Metformin (Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR): Following a 2-week run-in period, matching placebo was administered as 2 tablets, once daily, before the first meal of the day plus metformin as prescribed by the Principal Investigator for up to 26 weeks in the double-blind Core Treatment Period, and participants continued the same treatment in the double-blind Extension Period for up to 53 weeks.
