About this study

Official title: A 52 Week Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group, Multi-Center, Multinational Trial In Islet Cell Transplant Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus To Determine If The Early Use Of Liraglutide As An Adjunct To Standard Care Increases The Proportion Of Subjects Achieving Insulin Independence After First Transplantation

This trial is conducted in Europe and North America. The aim of this trial is to investigate if liraglutide treatment can increase the proportion of insulin-independent subjects one year after islet cell transplantation who required only one (single-donor) islet cell transplant.

Being tested
liraglutide, placebo
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • liraglutideDrug

    Dose escalation of liraglutide up to 1.2 to 1.8 mg before islet cell transplant until the planned number of transplanted subjects is complete or subject is transplanted. After islet cell transplant, subjects continue to receive the reached liraglutide dose for 52 weeks. Injected subcutaneously(under the skin) once daily.

  • placeboDrug

    Dose escalation escalation of liraglutide up to 1.2 to 1.8 mg before islet cell transplant until the planned number of transplanted subjects is complete or subject is transplanted. After islet cell transplant, subjects continue to receive the reached liraglutide placebo dose for 52 weeks. Injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion Of Insulin-independent Subjects After Receiving Only One (Single-Donor) Islet Cell Transplant

    Proportion Of Insulin-independent Subjects After Receiving Only One (Single-Donor) Islet Cell Transplant.

    Measured: At week 52 after initial transplantation

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Hypoglycaemic Episodes

    A hypoglycaemic episode was defined as treatment emergent if the onset of the episode was on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and until the last day on randomised treatment. Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes were categorised either as minor (PG<3.1 mmol/L [56 mg/dL]) or severe (subject unable to treat himself/herself).

    Measured: During week 0 to week 52

  2. Proportion of Subjects With HbA1c Below Or Equal to 6.5% At Week 52 That Are Free From Severe Hypoglycaemic Events

    Proportion of subjects with HbA1c below or equal to 6.5% at week 52 that were free from severe hypoglycaemic events

    Measured: From week 0 to week 52 after initial transplantation

  3. Proportion of Insulin-Independent Subjects

    Proportion of insulin-independent subjects among all randomised subjects who had one or more transplantations after randomisation

    Measured: At 52 weeks after initial transplantation

  4. Change in Islet Cell Yield During Culture

    Change in islet cell yield from pre-culture to post-culture

    Measured: From 0 hours pre-culture to 24 hours to 72 hours

  5. Glucose Level Variability And Hypoglycaemia Duration Derived From The Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)

    Change from baseline in glucose level variability and hypoglycaemia at baseline, weekly during liraglutide dose escalation, at 12 weeks pre-transplant, at 24 weeks post-transplant, 52 weeks post-transplant and 56 weeks (4 weeks after withdrawal of liraglutide or liraglutide placebo)

    Measured: At 12 weeks pre-transplant, at 24 weeks post-transplant, 52 weeks post-transplant and 56 weeks (4 weeks after withdrawal of liraglutide or liraglutide placebo)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted21 Sep 2010 (estimated)
  2. Study start21 Mar 2012
  3. Primary completion3 Jun 2013
  4. Study completion3 Jun 2013

Why it stopped: The decision to close the NN2211-3619 trial was based on the very low recruitment rate as well as challenges relating to trial execution and study completion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing liraglutide in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 16 sites in 6 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 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 16 sites in France, United States, Canada, Switzerland, United Kingdom and 1 more country. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jul 2014). 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?

Proportion Of Insulin-independent Subjects After Receiving Only One (Single-Donor) Islet Cell Transplant (time frame: At week 52 after initial transplantation). 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 Mar 2017.
