What is being measured

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

  1. HbA1c change from baseline (week 6) to end of treatment (week 17)

    Measured: measured from week 6 (baseline) to week 17

  2. Area under the plasma glucose concentration versus time (AUCglucose) compared to week 6 (baseline.

    Timepoints: 0 minutes (before meal) and at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300 minutes after TI administration

    Measured: at weeks 4, 6, 11 and 17

  3. Area under the plasma glucose concentration versus time (AUCglucose) compared to week 6 (baseline)

    Timepoints: 0 minutes (before meal) and at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300 minutes after Technosphere Placebo administration

    Measured: at weeks 4, 6, 11 and 17

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Fasting blood glucose concentration compared to week 6 (baseline)

    Measured: at weeks 4, 6, 11 and 17

  2. Safety variables included adverse events (AEs), clinical laboratory tests, vital signs and physical examinations

    Measured: 18 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Technosphere Insulin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Mannkind Corporation.

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 12 inclusion and 24 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 30 Apr 2012. 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. 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?

HbA1c change from baseline (week 6) to end of treatment (week 17) (time frame: measured from week 6 (baseline) to week 17). 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 Apr 2012.
