About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Parallel Group Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics Study of BI 10773 (1 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 25 mg, and 50 mg) Administered Orally Once Daily Over 12 Weeks Compared Double Blind to Placebo With an Additional Open-label Sitagliptin Arm in Type 2 Diabetic Patients With Insufficient Glycemic Control Despite Metformin Therapy

The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of five doses of BI 10773 compared to placebo given for 12 weeks as add-on therapy to on going metformin therapy in patients with T2DM with insufficient glycemic control. In addition, there will be an open-label treatment arm with sitagliptin (JanuviaTM) as add-on therapy to metformin.

Being tested
BI 10773, placebo, sitagliptin
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

    In the measured values adjusted means are displayed. For means for the placebo and empagliflozin arms are from the model excluding the sitagliptin open label (OL) arm. The mean for the sitagliptin OL arm is from the model with just this treatment group and the placebo group.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  2. Change of HbA1c From Baseline Over Time

    Change of HbA1c from baseline over time. Results presented stem from a repeated measures analysis.

    Measured: Baseline and weeks 4, 8 and 12

  3. Proportion of Patients Who Achieve an HbA1c ≤7.0% After 12 Weeks of Treatment

    Results for HbA1c categories at week 12 (Proportion of patients with HbA1c less than equal to 7%) based on logistic regression

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  4. Proportion of Patients Who Achieve an HbA1c Lowering of at Least 0.5% After 12 Weeks of Treatment

    Results for HbA1c categories at week 12 (Proportion of patients with HbA1c lowered at least 0.5%) based on logistic regression

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  5. Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Fasting Plasma Insulin (FPI)

    Results for change of FPI from baseline at week 12 based on ANCOVA

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  6. Change in Homeostasis Model Assessment Index for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)

    HOMA-IR (to assess insulin resistance) is defined as (FPI x FPG)/22.5. Results based on ANCOVA.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  7. Change in Homeostasis Model Assessment Index for Beta Cell Function (HOMA-%B)

    HOMA-%B (to assess insulin beta cell function) is defined as (20 x FPI)/(FPG-3.5), FPG in mg/dl. Results are based on ANCOVA.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  8. Change of Body Weight After 12 Weeks of Treatment

    Results for change of body weight after 12 weeks of treatment based on ANCOVA.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

  9. Trough Concentrations of Empagliflozin in Plasma

    (Pre-dose) trough concentrations of Empagliflozin in plasma, within 30 minutes of dosing.

    Measured: Days 28, 56 and 84

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BI 10773 and sitagliptin in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 116 sites in 16 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 7 inclusion and 13 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 13 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 116 sites in France, United States, Latvia, Romania, Russia and 11 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 From Baseline in HbA1c After 12 Weeks of Treatment (time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks). 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 NCT00749190, which also lists 2 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 13 Jun 2014.
