About this study

Official title: Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Multiple Ascending Dose Study of MBX-2044 to Evaluate the Multiple-dose Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability When Administered Orally in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to collect important information regarding the glucose-lowering efficacy of MBX-2044 and the safety of MBX-2044 (especially weight gain and edema) in diabetics. It will also provide important information about the appropriate doses to be used in subsequent longer-term studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MBX-2044 alone and in combination with other anti-diabetic agents.

Read the detailed description

The current study is designed to test the short-term effectiveness and tolerability of MBX-2044 in patients with type 2 diabetes who are currently being controlled with up to one or two non-TZD hypoglycemic agent(s) including sulfonylureas, meglitinides, metformin, α-glucosidase inhibitors or Byetta®. Eligible patients will be enrolled into one of the following treatment cohorts receiving either placebo or MBX-2044 at 1.5, 4.5, 15, 30, or 60 mg/day in a double-blinded study for a 14-day treatment period. Patients will be evaluated for adverse events and vital signs daily. All efficacy and laboratory safety measures will be assessed after 2 weeks. This study will provide important information regarding the glucose-lowering efficacy of MBX-2044 and the safety of MBX-2044 (especially weight gain and edema) in diabetics. It will also provide important information about the appropriate doses to be used in subsequent longer-term studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MBX-2044 alone and in combination with other anti-diabetic agents.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of MBX-2044 administered as monotherapy at the protocol-specified daily dose orally for 14 days

  2. Evaluate the clinical safety and tolerability of MBX-2044 after 14 days administration, including the parameters of weight gain and edema

  3. Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MBX-2044, after 14 days administration

  4. Determine the effect of MBX-2044 after 14 days administration, on efficacy parameters

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MBX-2044 in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Gilead Sciences at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 11 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 1 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 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?

Evaluate the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of MBX-2044 administered as monotherapy at the protocol-specified daily dose orally for 14 days. The study lists 4 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 1 May 2015.
