    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) After 6 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: baseline, 6 weeks

  2. Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) After 12 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks

  3. Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) After 18 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: baseline, 18 weeks

  4. Occurrence of Absolute Efficacy Response (HbA1c < 7%) After 24 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: 24 weeks

  5. Occurrence of Absolute Efficacy Response (HbA1c < 6.5%) After 24 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: 24 weeks

  6. Occurrence of Relative Efficacy Response (Reduction in HbA1c >= 0.5%) After 24 Weeks

    Glycosylated hemoglobin is reported as a percentage of the total hemoglobin

    Measured: 24 weeks

  7. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) After 24 Weeks

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  8. Change From Baseline in 2-hour Post-prandial Glucose (PPG) After 24 Weeks

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Linagliptin in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 93 sites 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 18 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 29 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 93 sites 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Oct 2012). 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 (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) After 24 Weeks (time frame: baseline, 24 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 NCT01194830, 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 29 Jan 2014.
