About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Double-Blind Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Treatment With SYR-619 in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of SYR-619, once daily (QD), in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have not achieved glycemic control with diet and exercise, or by taking metformin.

Read the detailed description

There are approximately 19 million people in the United States who have been diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, of which 90% to 95% is type 2. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes varies among racial and ethnic populations and has been shown to correlate with age, obesity, family history, history of gestational diabetes, and physical inactivity. Over the next decade, a marked increase in the number of adults with diabetes mellitus is expected, placing an ever increasing burden on families and the health care system.

SYR-619 is an inhibitor of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV enzyme. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV is thought to be primarily responsible for the in vivo degradation of 2 peptide hormones released in response to nutrient ingestion, namely glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the dose-response efficacy, safety and tolerability of treatment with SYR-619 in subjects with type 2 diabetes who do not previously achieve adequate glycemic control with lifestyle modification (diet/exercise) or metformin or sulfonylurea oral antidiabetic monotherapy.

Individuals who want to participate in this study will be required to provide written informed consent. Study participation is anticipated to be about 14 Weeks. Multiple procedures will occur at each visit which may include fasting, blood collection, urine collection, vital signs including sitting and standing blood pressure and pulse, body height and weight, physical examinations, electrocardiogram.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SYR-619 and Alogliptin in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by Takeda.

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 17 inclusion and 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2012. 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. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Voluntarily terminated based on preliminary non-clinical findings.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 glycosylated hemoglobin. (time frame: Week 12 or Final Visit..). 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 21 May 2012.
