About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Long-term Administration of Rimonabant in the Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes in Patients With Prediabetic Status (i.e., Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) or Both)

Primary objective:

To evaluate the effect of long-term administration of Rimonabant on the time of progression to type 2 diabetes in patients with prediabetes (i.e. Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) or Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) or both at baseline).

Secondary objectives:

  • To assess the effect on weight loss and weight maintenance; sustained effect following a washout period, effect on other markers of glycemic control (fasting glucose, fasting-insulin and HbA1c), glucose tolerance and insulin responses during oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs), and on other risk factors (HDL-Cholesterol, TG),
  • To assess the effect on quality of life
  • To evaluate long term safety and tolerability.
Read the detailed description

The total duration per patient will be approximately 38 months including a 30-month double-blind treatment period.

Rimonabant, Placebo (for Rimonabant)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rimonabant in people with Prediabetic State, run by Sanofi at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 18 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Company decision taken in light of demands by certain national health authorities). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Time of progression to type 2 diabetes (time frame: Baseline to 30 months). 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 18 May 2016.
