Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female patients, 18-70 years of age.
  • Diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes treated with metformin and obesity (body mass index [BMI] >30 kg/m^2) and the following other abnormalities:
  • Abdominal obesity (waist circumference >102 cm in men and >88 cm in women). According to National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel (NCEP-ATP) III (2001).
  • Glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥7 and ≤8.5% (after Sponsor approval providers might reasonably suggest more stringent A1c goals [such as 6.5%] for selected individual patients, if this can be achieved without significant hypoglycemia or other adverse effects of treatment. Appropriate patients might include those with short duration of diabetes, long life expectancy, and no significant cardiovascular disease).
  • Hypertriglyceridemia (fasting triglyceride levels between 150 mg/dL and 600 mg/dL, cholesterol <300 mg/dL. In order to exclude patients who might be suffering from a primitive dyslipidemia).
  • Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (serum HDL-cholesterol <40 mg/dL in men and <50 mg/dL in women).
  • Written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Smoking. Thyroid disease even if under appropriate hormonal replacement therapy or thyroid suppressant (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone [TSH] >5 mU/L with clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism).
  • Hepatic disease (Aspartate Aminotransferase [ASAT] or Alanine Aminotransferase [ALAT] >2 times the upper limit of normal).
  • Renal disease (serum creatinine >1.7 times the upper limit of normal). A history of coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, or peripheral arterial disease in the 6 months before enrollment.
  • History of malignancies. Use of lipid lowering therapy. Systolic blood pressure ≥180 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥110 mmHg. Triglycerides >600 mg/dL. History of chronic pancreatitis or of idiopathic acute pancreatitis.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.

About this study

Official title: Effect of GLP-1 Receptors Agonist Lixisenatide on Postprandial Lipid Profile in Obese Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the ability of lixisenatide to modulate postprandial hyperlipidemia in particular, the effects on plasma changes in triglycerides.

Secondary Objectives:

The effect of lixisenatide on the following postprandial lipids: apolipoprotein (APO) B48; free fatty acid, lipoprotein distribution, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation.

The effect of lixisenatide on chronic low-grade inflammation present in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and obesity.

The effect of lixisenatide on microvascular dysfunction. To evaluate the effect of lixisenatide on postprandial plasma glucose, insulin and C-peptide and glucagon.

Study groups in NCT02274740
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
lixisenatideExperimentalLixisenatide injection should be performed in the morning, within 1 hour (ie, 0-60 minutes), prior to breakfast (or standardized meal). Lixisenatide is to be started with once daily injections of 10 μg per day for 2 weeks then to be continued by the maintenance dose (8 weeks) of 20 μg/d up to the end of the treatment period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in plasma triglycerides after 10 weeks of treatment area under-the-time concentration curve between 0 and 480 minutes (AUC0-480 min)

    Measured: After 10 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Change from baseline in plasma triglyceride

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  2. Change from baseline in plasma cholesterol

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  3. Change from baseline in APO B48

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  4. Change from baseline in free fatty acid levels

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  5. Change from baseline in lipoprotein distribution

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  6. Change from baseline in LDL oxidation

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  7. Change from baseline in postprandial plasma glucose

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  8. Change from baseline in insulin

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  9. Change from baseline in C-peptide

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  10. Change from baseline in low grade inflammation (cytokines and stress oxidative markers)

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

  11. Change in baseline coronary flow reserve to assess the effect of lixisenatide on microvascular dysfunction

    Measured: 2 days after the basal test and after 10 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LIXISENATIDE AVE0010 and metformin in people with Type II Diabetes Mellitus, run by Sanofi.

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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision not related to safety reasons). Results are not available in the source record.

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 plasma triglycerides after 10 weeks of treatment area under-the-time concentration curve between 0 and 480 minutes (AUC0-480 min) (time frame: After 10 weeks of treatment). 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 Jan 2017.
