About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Study With Blinded Endpoint (PROBE Design) to Compare the 72 hr Glycemic Profiles Obtained by Continuous Subcutaneous Glucose Monitoring (CSGM) in Type 2 Diabetic Patients at Baseline With Metformin Monotherapy and After an 8-week Period With the Addition of Either Vildagliptin or Sitagliptin in Patients Insufficiently Controlled by Metformin After at Least 3 Months of Monotherapy

The study will assess glycemic variability and optimized glycemic control in T2DM patients treated with a DPP-4 inhibitor as add-on therapy to metformin.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Glycemic variability assessed by MAGE (Mean Amplitude of Glycemic Excursion)

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Glycemic control assessed through CSGM

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. Glycemic control assessed by A1C, FPG, PPG and the mean of 6 points self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) at baseline and after 8 weeks

    Measured: 8 weeks

  3. Unrecognized hypoglycemic periods recorded by CSGM, frequency and duration

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vildagliptin and Sitagliptin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Novartis at 7 sites in France.

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 2 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 4 May 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in France. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Glycemic variability assessed by MAGE (Mean Amplitude of Glycemic Excursion) (time frame: 8 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 NCT01193296, 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 4 May 2012.
