About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled Trial to Assess Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Lixisenatide in Paediatric (10 - 17 Years Old) and Adult Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Primary Objective:

  • To investigate the effects of two single subcutaneous lixisenatide doses (5 and 10 µg) as compared to placebo in reducing postprandial glucose (PPG) in type 2 diabetic paediatric population (10-17 years old) and adults as controls

Secondary Objectives:

  • To evaluate in both paediatric and adult populations:
  • the blood levels of lixisenatide (pharmacokinetic) parameters in plasma after single subcutaneous ascending doses
  • the maximum post-prandial glucose excursion, and on the changes in insulin, C-peptide and glucagon plasma concentrations following a standardized breakfast
  • safety and tolerability.
Read the detailed description

The duration of the study for each patient is planned between 4 and 7 weeks including a screening period (25 to 30 days), 3 treatment periods 1-7 days apart, each period lasting only one day (Day 1) and an end-of-study visit between 1 to 7 days after the last dose administration.

Being tested
Lixisenatide (AVE0010), Placebo
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What is being measured

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

  1. GLU-AUC 0:30-4:30h: area under the plasma glucose concentration time profile from time of the standardized breakfast start (30 min after IMP injection and pre-meal plasma glucose) until 4 hours later subtracting the pre-meal value

    Measured: D1 at each period up to 4h30 after study drug injection (8 timepoints)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pharmacokinetics: lixisenatide plasma concentration

    Measured: 0 (predose), 30 min, 1h, 1h30, 2h30, 3h30, 4h30 and 6h30 post-dose at D1 of each study period (8 timepoints)

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameter (Cmax)

    Measured: calculated over the period of timepoints at D1 of each study period

  3. Pharmacokinetic parameter (Tmax)

    Measured: calculated over the period of timepoints at D1 of each study period

  4. Pharmacokinetic parameter (AUC last)

    Measured: estimated over the period of timepoints at D1 of each study period

  5. Pharmacokinetic parameter (AUC)

    Measured: extrapolated based on the period of timepoints at D1 of each study period

  6. Area under the concentration time profile from time of standardized breakfast start (30 min after IMP injection) until 4 hours later for insulin, C-peptide and glucagon

    Measured: D1 at each period up to 4h30 after study drug injection (7 timepoints)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lixisenatide (AVE0010) in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Sanofi at 6 sites in 4 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 5 inclusion and 8 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 23 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 6 sites in United States, Mexico, South Africa, United Kingdom. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

GLU-AUC 0:30-4:30h: area under the plasma glucose concentration time profile from time of the standardized breakfast start (30 min after IMP injection and pre-meal plasma glucose) until 4 hours later subtracting the pre-meal value (time frame: D1 at each period up to 4h30 after study drug injection (8 timepoints)). 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 23 May 2014.
