    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24

  3. Change in body weight from Baseline to Week 24

    Change in body weight (kg) from Baseline to Week 24 and, if measured, at all visits in between

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24

  4. Change in glucose measurements from Baseline to Week 24

    Change in fasting SMBG profiles (glucose measurements before and 2 hours after meals) from Baseline to Week 24 and, if measured, at all visits in between

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24

  5. Changes in beta-cell function and insulin sensitivity from Baseline to Week 24

    Changes in beta-cell function and insulin sensitivity as assessed by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) analyses from Baseline to Week 24 and, if measured, at all visits in between

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24

  6. Changes in fasting and 30, 60, 120 and 180-minute glucose measurements

    Changes in fasting and 30, 60, 120, 180-minute post glucose load blood concentrations of glucose and insulin

    Measured: Immediately before glucose load, then 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes post

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing exenatide in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by AstraZeneca at 19 sites in 5 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 23 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in India, Romania, United States, Puerto Rico, Russia. 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 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?

Change in HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) from Baseline to Week 24 (time frame: Baseline, Week 24). 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 NCT00381342, which also lists 3 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 23 Feb 2015.
