About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Investigate the Effect of Taspoglutide on Gastric Emptying Measured by a Paracetamol Test After Single Dose and After Multiple Doses in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

This 3 arm, placebo-controlled study will investigate the effect of Taspoglutide on gastric emptying in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be randomized into one of 3 groups to receive a)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 12 weeks b)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 8 weeks or c) placebo sc weekly for 12 weeks, with all injections administered in the abdomen.Gastric emptying will be assessed by a paracetamol test at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

Being tested
Placebo, taspoglutide

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing taspoglutide in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 3 sites in 2 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany, United Kingdom. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Tmax, log (AUC), log(Cmax)of paracetamol (time frame: Days -1, 1, 5, 29, 33, 78 and 82). 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 2 Nov 2016.
