About this study

Official title: An Open Label,Randomized,Comparison of the Immunogenicity and Safety of Wockhardt's Human Insulin Basal Bolus Regimen With the Novo Nordisk's Yeast Based Human Insulin Basal Bolus Regimens, Marketed in United States, in Type 1 Diabetics.

This is an open label, randomized, parallel group comparison of the immunogenicity safety of Wockhardt's human insulin and isophane insulin compared with the Novo Nordisk's yeast based human insulin products (marketed in USA) in type 1 diabetics.

There are two phases of the study, which are as follows:

Read more
  1. Phase 1 is a comparative phase in which there will be 2 arms (which are described in the section below).
  2. Phase 2 is a follow up phase only applicable to Wosulin Arm.

The study will last for 54 weeks for the patients enrolled in Wosulin arm and approximately 28 weeks for the patients enrolled in the comparator arm.

Two hundred and forty two patients will be enrolled considering an estimated dropout rate of 15% for a sample size of approximately 105 evaluable patients per arm. The total planned enrollment period for this study is approximately 3 months (90 days).

Conditions
Type I Diabetes
Being tested
Wosulin (N or 70/30 with R), Novolin® (N or 70/30 with R)
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in HbAlc from baseline to 6 months of treatment between Wosulin arm and Novolin arm(as surrogate indicator of change in insulin antibodies titers between the two treatment arms).

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Correlation between change in HbA1c and change in anti insulin and insulin neutralizing antibodies.

    Insulin dose will be used as a covariate

    Measured: 6 months and 12 months

  2. To compare the change from baseline in the level of serum anti insulin antibodies and insulin neutralizing antibodies between the two arms

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Compare the change in Insulin dose between the two arms

    Glycated hemoglobin levels and the number of hypoglycemic episodes will be the covariants for this analysis

    Measured: 3 and 6 months

  4. Correlation of the immunogenicity with hypoglycemia, local allergic reactions and systemic allergic reactions will be evaluated.

    Immunogenicity is measured as percentage change in serum antiinsulin antibodies and insulin neutralizing antibodies.

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Wosulin (N or 70/30 with R) and Novolin® (N or 70/30 with R) in people with Type I Diabetes, run by Wockhardt at 25 sites in 2 countries.

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 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States, India. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Business reasons). Results are not available in the source record.

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 in HbAlc from baseline to 6 months of treatment between Wosulin arm and Novolin arm(as surrogate indicator of change in insulin antibodies titers between the two treatment arms). (time frame: 6 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 23 Jun 2023.
