About this study

Official title: A Multicentre, Open Label, Nonrandomised, Non-interventional, Observational, Safety Study in Subjects Using Insulin Detemir for the Treatment of Insulin Dependent Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: The PREDICTIVE™ Study: Predictable Results and Experience in Diabetes Through Intensification and Control to Target: an International Variability Evaluation

This study is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, Japan and South America. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the incidence of serious adverse reactions (SARs) while using Levemir® (insulin detemir) under normal clinical practice conditions.

Study conducted globally in 26 countries. Some countries participated in the study for only 3 months (Austria, Brazil, Denmark, Germany, Israel, Lebanon, Slovenia, Russia, and Turkey), while others extended their participation to 6 (Belgium/Luxembourg, Czech Republic, Greece, India, Italy, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Tunisia, and United Kingdom/Ireland) and 12 months (Finland, France, and Japan), respectively.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Serious Adverse Reactions, Including Major Hypoglycaemic Events

    The incidence of serious adverse reactions (SARs), including major hypoglycaemic events, during 3 months of insulin detemir therapy for all countries participating in the study, and during 6 and 12 months of insulin detemir therapy for some of the participating countries. The three sub-groups were mutually exclusive. Physicians did not report all major hypoglycaemic events as SARs. The values in the SAE table are SARs including only those major hypoglycaemic events that were reported as SARs by physicians.

    Measured: Months 0-12

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 3 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 10 Mar 2017. 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 Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France and 8 more countries. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Aug 2011). 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?

Incidence of Serious Adverse Reactions, Including Major Hypoglycaemic Events (time frame: Months 0-12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00659295, which also lists 17 linked publications.

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 10 Mar 2017.
