6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

The safety of combined use of 10 mg dapagliflozin and 5 mg saxagliptin has been evaluated in adult subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a pooled safety analysis of three phase 3 active/placebo-controlled clinical trials with a median exposure of 51 weeks.

The pooled safety analysis included a total of 1169 adults: 492 patients in the combination of saxagliptin and dapagliflozin plus metformin group, 341 patients in the dapagliflozin plus metformin group, 336 patients in the saxagliptin plus metformin group.The mean age of these subjects was 54 years, 0.8% were 75 years or older and 53.7% were female.

The population was 80.9% White, 8.3% Black or African American, 3.7% Asian, and 6.6% Other race.

At baseline the population had diabetes for an average of 7.5 years and a mean HbA1c of 8.4%.

The mean eGFR at baseline was 94.4 mL/min/1.73 m 2 .

The common adverse reactions were based on the pooled analyses of these studies as shown in Table
