About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Intensive Insulin Therapy With Insulin Glulisine in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled With Basal Insulin and Oral Glucose-lowering Drugs

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the efficacy of an intensive insulin regimen with insulin glargine and insulin glulisine in terms of change in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level from week 12 (visit 7) to week 24 (visit 10).

Secondary Objectives:

  1. Percentage of patients with HbA1c < 7% at week 24.
  2. Percentage of patients with HbA1c < 7% and no symptomatic nocturnal hypoglycemia event at week 24.
  3. Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) and 7-point Self Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) at week 0, week 12 and week 24.
  4. Doses of insulin glargine and insulin glulisine: the daily dose (U) and the daily dose / kg (U/kg) will be calculated at week 24.
  5. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, weight change will be measured at week 0, week 12 and week 24.
  6. Number of patients suffering hypoglycemias (asymptomatic, symptomatic, nocturnal symptomatic, severe and nocturnal severe) will be evaluated during the treatment period. 7-Adverse events.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing INSULIN GLARGINE and INSULIN GLULISINE in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Sanofi at 10 sites in 10 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 11 inclusion and 18 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 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Algeria, Brazil, Israel, Lebanon, Mexico and 5 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Change in HbA1c level for patients with addition of glulisine at week 12 (time frame: between week 12 and week 24 (end of treatment period)). 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 Aug 2012.
