About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Phase 2, Long-Term Safety Study of Inhaled Insulin: An Up to Four-Year Extension of Therapy in Subjects With Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Participating in Extension Protocols 217-102, 103, or 104

This is a long-term safety study for Phase 2 subjects who choose to remain on Exubera® (inhaled insulin).

Read the detailed description

The study was terminated on Oct. 18, 2007. This study is not a post approval commitment study. Pfizer decided to cancel new trials because of the decision to withdraw Exubera® (inhaled insulin) due to lack of market performance and not for safety reasons.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (L) by Time on Exubera Treatment

    Change from Baseline: mean of (value of observed forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) (liters) at treatment duration minus baseline value). Duration of treatment is based on the elapsed duration of treatment in the controlled and uncontrolled studies. Baseline was based on pre-inhaled insulin measurements.

    Measured: Baseline to 126 months

  2. Change in Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity (mL/Min/mm Hg) by Time on Exubera Treatment

    Change from Baseline: mean of (value of observed Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity (mL/min/mm Hg) at treatment duration minus baseline value). Duration of treatment is based on the elapsed duration of treatment in the controlled and uncontrolled studies. Baseline was based on pre-inhaled insulin measurements.

    Measured: baseline to 126 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change in Glycosylated Hemoglobin by Duration of Exubera Treatment

    Change from Baseline: mean of (value of observed glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) (percent) at treatment duration minus baseline value). Duration of treatment is based on the elapsed duration of treatment in the controlled and uncontrolled studies. Baseline was based on pre-inhaled insulin measurements.

    Measured: Baseline to 126 months

  2. Hypoglycemic Event Rates by Interval of Exubera Treatment

    Number of hypoglycemic events per subject-month. Subject-month determined by time on treatment. Interval of treatment based on elapsed duration of treatment in the controlled \& uncontrolled studies.Overall represents entire duration of treatment. Hypoglycemia: Characteristic symptoms of hypoglycemia with no blood glucose check. Clinical picture must include prompt resolution with food intake, subcutaneous glucagon or intravenous glucose.OR,Characteristic symptoms of hypoglycemia with blood glucose check showing glucose <=59 mg/dl.OR,Any glucose measurement <=49 mg/dl,with or without symptoms.

    Measured: 0 to 132 months

  3. Severe Hypoglycemic Event Rates by Interval of Exubera Treatment

    Number of severe hypoglycemic events per 100 subject-months.Subject-month determined by time on treatment.Interval of treatment based on elapsed duration of treatment in controlled \& uncontrolled studies.Overall represents entire duration of treatment.A severe hypoglycemic event must have met all 3of following:1.subject unable to treat self.2.subject exhibited 1 or more of neurological symptoms defined in protocol.3.blood glucose must be <=49 mg/dl if measured.If not measured,clinical manifestations must have been reversed by oral carbohydrates,subcutaneous glucagon,or intravenous glucose.

    Measured: 0-132 months

  4. Insulin Antibodies (Percent Binding) by Time on Exubera Treatment - Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes

    Observed values by duration of treatment.

    Measured: 36 months to 126 months

  5. Insulin Antibodies (Percent Binding) by Time on Exubera Treatment - Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (Using Insulin at Study Entry)

    observed values by duration of treatment.

    Measured: 36 to 126 months

  6. Insulin Antibodies (Percent Binding) by Time on Exubera Treatment - Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (Not Using Insulin at Study Entry)

    Observed values by duration of treatment.

    Measured: 6 to 120 months

  7. Number of Decliners in Either Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (L) or Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity (ml/Min/mm Hg), by Duration of Exubera Treatment

    Decliners = decline of ≥15% in forced expiratory volume or ≥20% in carbon monoxide diffusing capacity.

    Measured: 3 to >=108 months

  8. Number of Decliners in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (L) by Duration of Exubera Treatment

    Decliners at particular timepoint were defined as any decline of ≥15% in forced expiratory volume.

    Measured: 3 to >=108 months

  9. Number of Decliners in Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity (ml/Min/mm Hg) by Duration of Exubera Treatment

    Decliners at particular timepoint were defined as any decline of ≥20% in carbon monoxide diffusing capacity.

    Measured: 6 to >=108 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Exubera® (inhaled insulin) in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by Pfizer at 12 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 15 Apr 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 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. 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 9 Nov 2009). 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 Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (L) by Time on Exubera Treatment (time frame: Baseline to 126 months). 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?
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 15 Apr 2010.
