About this study

Official title: A Multicentre, Multinational, Randomised, Open Study to Establish the Optimal Method for Initiating and Maintaining Lantus® (Insulin Glargine) Therapy Based on a Comparison of Two Treatment Algorithms to Determine Optimal Metabolic Outcomes, Safety, and Satisfaction in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Primary objective:

  • To determine the optimal treatment algorithm for the clinical use of insulin glargine based on the incidence of severe hypoglycaemia.

Secondary objectives:

  • To determine for each treatment algorithm the incidence of asymptomatic, symptomatic and nocturnal hypoglycaemia.
  • To determine the difference in glycaemic control as measured by HbA1c and fasting blood glucose between the treatment algorithms.
  • To determine the difference in glycaemic control as measured by HbA1c and fasting blood glucose between baseline and end of treatment.
  • To obtain safety data on the use of insulin glargine in each treatment algorithm.
  • To measure change in subject weight and insulin dose between baseline and end of treatment.
  • To determine subject quality of life and treatment satisfaction (sub-study)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of severe hypoglycaemia

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Incidence of any hypoglycaemia

  2. Incidence of symptomatic hypoglycaemia

  3. Incidence of nocturnal hypoglycaemia

  4. Incidence of asymptomatic hypoglycaemia

  5. Adjusted mean change in Hb1Ac (%)

  6. Adjusted mean change in fasting blood glucose (FBG) (mg/dl)

  7. Adjusted mean change in nocturnal blood glucose (NBG) (mg/dl)

  8. Adjusted mean change in mean daily blood glucose (MBG) (mg/dl)

  9. % of subjects at v12 with Hb1Ac < or = 6.5 %

  10. % of subjects at v12 with Hb1Ac < or = 7.0 %

  11. % of subjects at v12 with FBG < or = 100 mg/dl

  12. Weight change (kg)

  13. Change in insulin glargine dose v2 - v12 (IU)

  14. Safety data

  15. Quality of Life and treatment satisfaction before, during and at the end of treatment using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin glargine in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Sanofi.

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 6 inclusion and 0 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 31 Aug 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Incidence of severe hypoglycaemia. 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 NCT00399724, which also lists 4 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 31 Aug 2010.
