What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline at Day 28 in 24-hour Urinary Glucose Excretion

    To assess 24-hour urinary glucose excretion, urine was collected over a 24-hour period and evaluated for glucose concentration.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 28

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change From Baseline at Day 29 in Fasting Plasma Glucose

    Measured: Baseline to Day 29

  2. Change From Baseline at Day 28 in Plasma HbA1c

    Measured: Baseline to Day 28

  3. Change From Baseline at Day 28 in Plasma Fructosamine Level

    Measured: Baseline to Day 28

  4. Change From Baseline at Day 28 in Mean Arterial Pressure

    Measured: Baseline to Day 28

  5. Change From Baseline at Day 28 in Triglycerides

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LX4211 Low Dose and LX4211 High Dose in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Lexicon Pharmaceuticals 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 7 inclusion and 9 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 3 Mar 2011. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Mar 2011). 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 at Day 28 in 24-hour Urinary Glucose Excretion (time frame: Baseline to Day 28). 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 NCT00962065, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Mar 2011.
