About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled Pre-prandial Human Insulin Plus Glimepiride Versus Rosiglitazone Plus Glimepiride in Type 2 Diabetes

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and Oceania. The aim of this research study is to compare the efficacy of adding inhaled preprandial insulin to glimepiride compared to adding rosiglitazone to glimepiride for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and to verify its safety (hypoglycaemia, pulmonary function, body weight, insulin antibodies and side effects)

Read the detailed description

The decision to discontinue the development of AERx® is not due to any safety concerns. An analysis concluded that fast-acting inhaled insulin in the form it is known today, is unlikely to offer significant clinical or convenience benefits over injections of modern insulin with pen devices.

Being tested
rosiglitazone, inhaled human insulin, glimepiride
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing rosiglitazone, inhaled human insulin and glimepiride in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 26 sites in 7 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 1 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in Russia, India, Turkey (Türkiye), Australia, Philippines and 2 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: See termination reason in detailed description). 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?

Treatment difference in HbA1c (time frame: After 26 weeks). 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 1 Mar 2017.
