About this study

Official title: A Randomized Double-blind Study to Determine the Effect of GK Activator (2) on Efficacy (HbA1c), Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Treated With a Stable Dose of Metformin.

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of GK Activator (2) in combination with metformin, compared to that of placebo (metformin monotherapy), in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients will continue on their stable dose of metformin and will be randomized to receive either GK Activator (2) or placebo. The anticipated time on study treatment is less than 3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing GK Activator (2) and Metformin in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 47 sites in 6 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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 47 sites in United States, Germany, United Kingdom, Canada, Spain and 1 more country. 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?

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 mean change from baseline compared with placebo. (time frame: Week 12). 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 2 Nov 2016.
