Trial summary

Insulin therapy with lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d. is a treatment with a single insulin device. The management is comparatively simple and easy, but the curative effect is promising. It is also reported that noninferiority has been observed between basal/bolus therapy (BBT) and prandial premixed therapy (PPT, lispro mix… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Multicenter Trial on Clinical Utility of Insulin Lispro Mix 50/50 T.I.D. Therapy in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Insulin therapy with lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d. is a treatment with a single insulin device. The management is comparatively simple and easy, but the curative effect is promising. It is also reported that noninferiority has been observed between basal/bolus therapy (BBT) and prandial premixed therapy (PPT, lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d.).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether change of insulin therapy from BBT (long-acting insulin at bedtime plus mealtime rapid-acting insulin) or analog insulin therapy t.i.d. (including therapies with aspart mix 70/30 and lispro mix 75/25) to lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d. improves glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Read the detailed description

Patients will continue existing insulin therapy for three months. After that, the investigators will change insulin therapy according to the insulin regimen below and continue the therapy for six months.

Patients will terminate from sulfonylurea treatment at the change of insulin therapy. The investigators will not change other oral hypoglycemic agents during the whole study period.

Regimen: Divide the total units of all insulin per day by three and equally apply the amount to mealtime injections of insulin lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d. When the unit is indivisible and the remainder is one unit, add it to the mealtime injection of breakfast. When the remainder is two units, add each unit to mealtime injections of breakfast and dinner.

Patients will terminate from the trial when their HbA1c increases by 1% and stays at the level for more than three months after the change of insulin regimen.

When there is a risk of hypoglycemia at the change of insulin regimen, the investigators will divide ninety percent of the total insulin units per day by three and equally apply the amount to mealtime injections of insulin lispro 50/50. When considered to be safe, the investigators will increase the insulin unit per day to the total insulin unit at the previous treatment within two months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Insulin lispro mix 50/50 in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Aichi Gakuin University at 4 sites 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 1 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Takahiro Tosaki, MD, PhD (+81-52-759-2111, nrd49075@nifty.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pre- and postprandial glucose levels in SMBG (time frame: nine months). 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 24 Feb 2011.
