What is being measured

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

  1. Change in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin)

    Severe or blood glucose (BG) confirmed symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as episodes that were severe and/or BG confirmed by a plasma glucose value of <56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L), with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia.

    Measured: Weeks 0-26

  2. Change in Body Weight

    Change in body weight after 26 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: Week 0, Week 26

  3. Responder for HbA1c Below 7.0%

    Number of subjects with HbA1c below 7% after 26 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: After 26 weeks of treatment

  4. Responder for HbA1c Below or Equal to 6.5 %

    Number of subjects with HbA1c below 6.5% after 26 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: After 26 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing insulin degludec/liraglutide, insulin glargine and insulin aspart in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 117 sites in 12 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 7 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 29 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 117 sites in United States, France, Russia, Czechia, Greece and 7 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Dec 2017). 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?

Change in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) (time frame: Week 0, Week 26). 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 NCT02420262, 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 29 Mar 2018.
