About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase 2, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Treat-to-Target, Parallel-group, 3-arm, Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Canagliflozin as Add-on Therapy to Insulin in the Treatment of Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of administration of canagliflozin 100 mg and 300 mg, compared with placebo as an addition to insulin therapy for the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM).

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized (the study medication is assigned by chance), double-blind (neither physician nor participant knows the identity of the assigned treatment), placebo-controlled (an inactive substance that is compared with a medication to test whether the medication has a real effect) parallel-group, multicenter study of canagliflozin as an addition to insulin therapy for participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus and inadequate glycemic control.

Approximately 330 participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to either canagliflozin 100 mg, canagliflozin 300 mg, or placebo groups. About 90 participants (30 per treatment group) will be selected for a substudy with a purpose of a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) assessment for 7 days at baseline and 7 days at the end of treatment.

The total duration of the participation will be about 22 weeks, during which participants will need to return to investigational sites for approximately 9 visits. During the study participants will receive advice on treatment of hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), as well as on compliance with diet and exercise.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Reduction Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 0.4 Percent (%) and no Increase in Body Weight

    Clinical response at Weeks 18 was assessed by the percentage of participants with Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reduction greater than or equal to 0.4 % and had no increase in body weight.

    Measured: Week 18

  2. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events

    Measured: Up to 22 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Canagliflozin 100 mg and Canagliflozin 300 mg in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 53 sites in 2 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 5 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 18 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 53 sites in United States, Canada. 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 18 Jul 2016). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Reduction Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 0.4 Percent (%) and no Increase in Body Weight (time frame: Week 18). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02139943, which also lists 3 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 18 Jul 2016.
