About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new-brand of repaglinide is effective in the treatment of type 2 diabetes patients.

Read the detailed description

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new-brand of repaglinide X® in comparison to Novonorm® for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Mentally competent patients with age of 30 to 75 years old in Taiwan of either sex with type 2 diabetes mellitus will be included. All eligible subjects will be randomized into treatment groups in 1:1 ratio. The treatment will consist of either X® or Novonorm® tid before meal for 12 weeks of treatment. The primary endpoints include the net change of HbA!c, fasting plasma glucose(FPG)and postprandial plasma glucose(PPG)at the end of 12th week evaluation compared to the baseline visit. Also, safety profiles including adverse event (such as hypoglycemia) incidences, blood pressure, liver, kidney function test will be monitored.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Repaglinide in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by National Cheng-Kung University Hospital at 2 sites in Taiwan.

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 19 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jun 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Taiwan. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact H.Y. Ou, MD (886-6-2353535 ext. 2177, wahoryi@mail.ncku.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change of HbA1c at 12 weeks. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?
