About this study

Official title: A 24-week, Randomised, Parallel-Group, Multi-Centre, Open-Label Study of the Renal Effects of Tesaglitazar in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

This is a prospective 24-week, randomized, parallel-group, multi-center, active-controlled (pioglitazone 45 mg) open-label study designed to assess the effects of tesaglitazar 2 mg per day on components of renal excretion of creatinine in type 2 diabetics. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and an 8-week follow-up period

Being tested
Tesaglitazar, pioglitazone

Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TesaglitazarDrug

    Also called Galida

    2 mg once daily in oral form

  • pioglitazoneDrug

    Also called Actos

    45 mg once daily in oral form

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effects of on tubular secretion of creatinine in type 2 diabetics after 12 weeks of treatment as assessed through determinations of:

  2. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by iothalamate clearance

  3. Endogenous creatinine clearance

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Effects of on tubular secretion of creatinine in type 2 diabetics after 24 weeks of treatment as assessed through determinations of:

  2. GFR by iothalamate clearance

  3. Endogenous creatinine clearance

  4. The time course of change in serum creatinine concentration and GFR during a 24-week period of tesaglitazar treatment in type 2 diabetics

  5. The effects of tesaglitazar on urinary protein excretion in type 2 diabetics by comparisons of urinary total protein and albumin excretion rates

  6. The effects of tesaglitazar on urinary creatinine excretion in type 2 diabetics by comparisons of urinary total creatinine excretion rates

  7. The pharmacokinetics of tesaglitazar during 24 weeks of therapy in type 2 diabetics.

  8. The safety and tolerability of tesaglitazar in type 2 diabetics by assessments of adverse events, laboratory values, electrocardiogram, pulse, blood pressure, body weight, and physical examination.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tesaglitazar and pioglitazone in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by AstraZeneca at 21 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The development program has been terminated). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effects of on tubular secretion of creatinine in type 2 diabetics after 12 weeks of treatment as assessed through determinations of:. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Aug 2011.
