What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)-lowering effects of KRP-104 in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone.

    Measured: 12-weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To assess the fasting plasma glucose (FPG)-lowering effect of KRP-104 in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone;

    Measured: 12-weeks

  2. To compare effects of once daily (QD) dosing versus twice daily (BID) dosing of KRP-104 on HbA1c and FPG

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. To assess the effects of KRP-104 on post-prandial glucose dynamics and insulin sensitivity (homeostasis model index [HOMA-β]) in the setting of a Meal Tolerance Test(MTT)

    Changes from pre-prandial to 2-hour post-prandial glucose, active GLP-1, insulin summarized by treatment group from Week 0 to Week 5 and Week 12. Percent change in 2-hour post-prandial glucose summarized by treatment group from Week 0 to Week 5 and Week 12.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. To assess the safety and tolerability of KRP-104;

    Measured: Daily for 12 weeks to 2 weeks post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study of Type 2 Diabetes, run by ActivX Biosciences, Inc. 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 11 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 22 Aug 2013. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)-lowering effects of KRP-104 in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone. (time frame: 12-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 22 Aug 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
