About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multicenter Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of SYR-322 in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes in Japan

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dose-response relationships of alogliptin, once daily (QD) to an α-glucosidase inhibitor, three times daily (TID), to determine the optimal clinical dose for type 2 diabetic patients.

Read the detailed description

Both insulin hyposecretion and insulin-resistance are considered to be involved in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Takeda is developing SYR-322 (alogliptin) for the improvement of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Alogliptin is an inhibitor of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) enzyme. DPP-IV is thought to be primarily responsible for the degradation of 2 peptide hormones released in response to nutrient ingestion. It is expected that inhibition of DPP-IV will improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of alogliptin, participants in the present study could enter a long-term extension study SYR-322/OCT-001 (NCT01263496) that was planned separately.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Alogliptin and Voglibose in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Takeda at 1 site in Japan.

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 1 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 Feb 2012. 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 Japan. 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 6 Jul 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 in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (Week 12). (time frame: Baseline and Week 12.). 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 3 Feb 2012.
