What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment-emergent Antibody Status (Maximum Titer Level Experienced)

    Patients who experienced specified treatment-emergent antibody status at any point during the study (grouped by maximum titer level experienced)

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. Incidence of Potentially Immune-related Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    Number of patients experiencing a potentially immune-related treatment-emergent adverse event at any point during the study

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline to Endpoint

    Change in HbA1c from baseline (Week 0) to endpoint (Week 24) by treatment-emergent antibody status

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing exenatide in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by AstraZeneca at 13 sites in 5 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 7 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Canada, Hungary, Italy, South Korea, Australia. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Jun 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Treatment-emergent Antibody Status (Maximum Titer Level Experienced) (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 7 Apr 2015.
