About this study

Official title: 2 Year Efficiency and Safety Comparison of Insulin Detemir and NPH Insulin in Type 1 Diabetes.

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, and South America. The aim of this research study is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and in blood glucose levels) of insulin detemir compared to NPH insulin administered as basal insulin for the treatment of type 1 diabetes and to verify the safety of use (number and severity of episodes of hypoglycemia, body weight, and insulin antibodies and side effects).

Being tested
insulin detemir, insulin NPH, insulin aspart
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing insulin detemir, insulin NPH and insulin aspart in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 29 sites in 10 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 4 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 27 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Australia, Argentina, India, South Africa, Bulgaria and 5 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?

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?

HbA1c (time frame: after a two-year trial period). 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 NCT00184665, which also lists 2 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 27 Jan 2017.
