About this study

Official title: A Phase IIIb/IV, Multinational, Multicentre, Randomised, Open Study to Establish the Optimal Method for Initiating and Maintaining Lantus® (Insulin Glargine) Therapy Based on a Comparison of Two Treatment Algorithms to Determine Optimal Metabolic Outcomes, Safety, and Satisfaction in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus/ "HALT" Sub-study: Multicentre, Open Clinical Trial to Assess the Effect of Insulin Glargine on Symptomatic Hypoglycaemia, Fear of Hypoglycaemia and Quality of Life in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

Primary objective:

AT.LANTUS main study*

Read more
  • To determine the optimal treatment algorithm for insulin glargine based on the incidence of severe hypoglycaemia.(*Target Number of patients for the main study:2346)

HALT Sub-study**

  • To test the hypothesis that titration regimens involving insulin glargine are associated with changes in the rate of symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes together with changes in Fear of Hypoglycaemia as measured by the HFS-98 Questionnaire in Type I diabetes.(**Target Number of patients for the Sub-study: 250)

Secondary objectives:

AT.LANTUS main study

To determine:

  • the incidence of symptomatic, asymptomatic and nocturnal hypoglycaemia with each treatment regimen
  • the difference in glycemic control as measured by HbA1c and fasting blood glucose with each treatment regimen
  • the difference in glycemic control as measured by HbA1c and fasting blood glucose between baseline and end of treatment
  • the safety on the use of insulin glargine in each treatment algorithm
  • the change in subject weight with each treatment regimen
  • the change in insulin doses with each treatment regimen
  • the change in Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction (Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, sub-study only) with each treatment regimen

HALT Sub-study (baseline to study end)

  • To estimate the relationship between change in HbA1c and incidence of hypoglycaemia
  • To examine the effect of insulin glargine on Quality of Life (EQ-5D) in relation to incidence of hypoglycaemia
  • To examine the effect of insulin glargine on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) in relation to the incidence of hypoglycaemia
  • To examine the use of the Prescription Plan versus standard management (no Prescription Plan)

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Main study: Frequency of severe hypoglycaemia

  2. Sub-study: The fear of hypoglycaemia as measured by the Hypoglycaemia Fear Survey questionnaire (HFS-98) assessed at baseline, 3 months and study end point or upon withdrawal of the subject from the study.

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Main study: HbA1c

  2. Incidence of nocturnal, symptomatic and asymptomatic hypoglycaemia

  3. Self monitored blood glucose

  4. Change in subject weight

  5. Changes in doses of insulin

  6. Changes in treatment satisfaction

  7. Safety assessment

  8. Quality of Life (QoL)using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ)

  9. Sub-study:Quality of Life tools assessed at baseline, 3 months and at study end point or upon withdrawal of the subject

  10. Quality of Life - EQ-5D

  11. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)

  12. Adverse events correlating with Quality of Life tools and hypoglycaemic events

  13. Medications for diabetes

  14. HbA1c

  15. Weight and height (BMI)

  16. Proportion of patients reaching HbA1c target as per participation with the Prescription Plan

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin Glargine in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Sanofi.

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 1 inclusion and 0 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Main study: Frequency of severe hypoglycaemia. The study lists 2 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 31 Aug 2010.
