    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change From Baseline in Weight to Week 52

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose to Week 52

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  3. Number of Subjects Achieving Week 52 HbA1c Levels Less Than or Equal to 7.0%

  5. Incidence of Severe Hypoglycemia

    Severe hypoglycemia occurs when all 3 of the following occur simultaneously:

    • Subject requires the assistance of another person;
    • Subject exhibits at least 1 cognitive neurological symptom (memory loss, confusion, uncontrollable behavior, irrational behavior, unusual difficulty in awakening, seizure, loss of consciousness);
    • Measured BG is ≤ 49 mg/dL (2.7 mmol/L), or, in the absence of a BG measurement, clinical symptoms are reversed by oral carbohydrates, sc glucagon or intravenous glucose administration; OR,
    • Measured BG is ≤ 36 mg/dL (2.0 mmol/L) with or without symptoms.

    Measured: 52 Weeks

  6. Total Hypoglycemia Event Rate

    Number of Hypoglycemic Events/Total Subject Exposure Time (in months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Technosphere® Insulin Inhalation Powder and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension and 30% insulin aspart injection (rDNA origin) in people with Diabetes Type 2, run by Mannkind Corporation at 151 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 9 inclusion and 23 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 16 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 151 sites in United States, Russia, Brazil, Spain, Argentina 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Oct 2014). 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 From Baseline in HbA1c to Week 52 (time frame: Baseline to Week 52). 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 NCT00309244, 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 16 Oct 2014.
