About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Triple-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Investigate the Safety of Pramlintide Treatment Employing Pramlintide Dose-Titration Followed by Insulin Dose Optimization in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Who Have Not Achieved Glycemic Targets With Intensive Insulin Therapy

This is a randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to investigate the safety of pramlintide treatment using pramlintide dose-titration coupled with insulin adjustments in subjects with type 1 diabetes who are actively trying to improve their glycemic control.

Being tested
Pramlintide acetate, Placebo
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Pramlintide Acetate (AC137)Active comparatorPramlintide acetate (AC137) injection is a clear, colorless, sterile solution for SC injection. It consists of pramlintide in sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.0, containing 43 mg/mL mannitol as an iso-osmolality modifier and 2.25 mg/mL metacresol as a preservative. The strength of pramlintide injection is 0.6 mg/mL

    Measured: 29 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. - To examine the change in HbA1c, postprandial glucose concentration, and body weight over the course of the study.

    Measured: 29 Weeks

  2. - To examine the pattern of daily insulin use over the course of the study.

    Measured: 29 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Pramlintide acetate in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by AstraZeneca at 33 sites in United States.

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 0 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 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites in United States. 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 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?

- To investigate the safety of pramlintide treatment employing dose titration upon initiation of pramlintide followed by insulin dose optimization in subjects with type 1 diabetes. (time frame: 29 Weeks). 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 NCT00042458, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Sep 2015.
