About this study

Official title: Pilot Study on Glycaemic Variability in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients With Basal Insulin and Fixed Combo Oral Antidiabetic Treatment.

Primary objective:

To evaluate in explorative manner the fasting blood glucose (FBG) coefficient of variability (CV)calculated on SMBG values (SMBG : Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose).

Secondary objectives:

The secondary objectives are the assessment of: changes in glycaemic control (HbA1C), frequency of hypoglycaemias, changes in weight, final insulin dose, changes in lipid parameters, changes in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio, profile of patient which best fits each of the algorithms with the dependent variable of change in HbA1C and independent variables of age, gender, race, tobacco use, diabetes complications, initial HbA1C, initial weight, duration of diabetes mellitus, general education and diabetes education.

  3. body weight

    Measured: During the study conduct

  4. final insulin dose

    Measured: During the study conduct

  5. lipid profile (serum total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides)

    Measured: During the study conduct

  6. urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio

    Measured: During the study conduct

  7. standard meal test

    Measured: during the study conduct

  8. results of CGMS

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insuline glargine in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Sanofi.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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 7 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

SMBG values (time frame: during the last 4 weeks before visit 3 (end of cycle 1) and visit 4). 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 7 Dec 2009.
