research, and these results further support the efficacy and safety profile of canagliflozin," said Kirk Ways, M.D., Ph.D., Vice President and Compound Development Team Leader for canagliflozin at Janssen. "The data are in line with the Phase 3 results announced earlier this year at the annual meetings of the American Diabetes Association and European Association for the Study of Diabetes which suggest that canagliflozin could help control blood glucose in a wide range of patients with type 2 diabetes, including patients on other antihyperglycemic medications such as pioglitazone and metformin."

These results are included in the abstract, "Efficacy and Safety of Canagliflozin in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes on Metformin and Pioglitazone" (board #64). An additional abstract, "Efficacy and Safety of Canagliflozin in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes with Moderate Renal Impairment" (board #75) will also be presented at CODHy 2012.

Canagliflozin is an investigational sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes. The kidneys of people with type 2 diabetes reabsorb greater amounts of glucose back into the body compared to non-diabetic people, which may contribute to elevated glucose levels. Canagliflozin blocks the reabsorption of glucose by the kidney, increasing glucose excretion and lowering blood glucose levels.

The global Phase 3 canagliflozin clinical program, which enrolled 10,285 patients in nine studies, is the largest late-stage development program for an investigational pharmacologic product for the treatment of type 2 diabetes submitted to health authorities to date. The program evaluated the safety and efficacy of canagliflozin across the spectrum of type 2 diabetes management, from adult patients treated only with diet and exercise to those requiring insulin injections to maintain glycemic control, and in three large studies in special populations: older p
