  • Normal pulmonary function and performance on pulmonary function tests
  • Written Informed Consent
  • Treatment with any type of anti-diabetic therapy other than metformin, sulfonylurea, meglitinide and alpha glucosidase inhibitors within the preceding 12 weeks [ie, thiazolidinediones (TZDs), dipeptyl peptidase inhibitors (DPP-IV), Symlin (pramlintide acetate) and or Byetta (exenatide)].

Who cannot join

  • Exposure to any investigational medications or devices within the previous 90 days prior to trial entry or participation in another clinical trial while participating in this trial.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MKC253 Inhalation Powder, Technosphere Inhalation Powder and subcutaneous injection in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Mannkind Corporation at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 7 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 14 Jun 2012. 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 Netherlands. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

AUC 0-240 min post-prandial serum glucose (time frame: 240 minutes). 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 14 Jun 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
