About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, 2-arm Parallel Group, 20-week Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Fixed-dose Combination of 1 mg Glimepiride and 250 mg Metformin (AMARYL M 1/250 mg) Versus Glimepiride (AMARYL®) in Chinese Type 2 Diabetes Patients Inadequately Controlled With Metformin.

Primary Objective:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of fixed dose combination of glimepiride and metformin (AMARYL M 1/250mg) in comparison with glimepiride (AMARYL) alone in terms of glycemic control as reflected by HbA1c during a 20-week treatment period in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled with metformin.

Secondary Objectives:

  • To evaluate the percentage of patients reaching HbA1c < 7% or HbA1c ≤ 6.5% of fixed dose combination of 1 mg glimepiride and 250 mg metformin (AMARYL M 1/250mg) in comparison with glimepiride (AMARYL) alone at week 20.
  • To evaluate the effect on Fasting Plasma Glucose of fixed dose combination of glimepiride and metformin (AMARYL M 1/250mg) in comparison with glimepiride (AMARYL) alone at week 20.
  • To assess the safety and tolerability of fixed dose combination of glimepiride and metformin (AMARYL M 1/250mg).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Glimepiride and Metformin hydrochloride combination (HOE490) and Glimepiride (HOE490) in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Sanofi at 22 sites in China.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 8 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in China. 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?

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?

Absolute change in HbA1c (time frame: 20 weeks, from baseline to week 20). 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 8 May 2014.
