What is being measured

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

Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 12
The change from Baseline in HbA1c (the concentration of glucose bound to hemoglobin as a percent of the absolute maximum that can be bound) collected at Week 12. Least squares means were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment as a fixed effect and baseline HbA1c as a covariate.
Measured: at Week 0 and Week 12

Secondary outcomes (3)

Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 12
The change from Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose collected at Week 12. Least squares means were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment as a fixed effect and baseline Fasting Plasma Glucose as a covariate.
Measured: at Week 0 and Week 12
Change From Baseline in the Areas Under the Curve From 0 to 2 h (AUC0-2h) for Postprandial Plasma Glucose at Week 12
The change from Baseline in AUC0-2h for Postprandial Plasma Glucose collected at Week 12. Least squares means were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment as a fixed effect and baseline AUC0-2h for Postprandial Plasma Glucose as a covariate.
Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2 hours post-dose at Week 0 and Week 12
Change From Baseline in 2-hour Postprandial Plasma Glucose at Week 12
The change from Baseline in 2-hour Postprandial Plasma Glucose collected at Week 12. Least squares means were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment as a fixed effect and baseline 2-hour Postprandial Plasma Glucose as a covariate.
Measured: at Week 0 and Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Teneli / Teneli + pio in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Tanabe Pharma Corporation at 1 site in Japan.

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 5 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 5 Jan 2026. 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 Japan. 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 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 28 Oct 2013). 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?

Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 12 (time frame: at Week 0 and Week 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 NCT01026194, which also lists 2 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 5 Jan 2026.
