About this study

Official title: Lantus® (Insulin Glargine[rDNA Origin] Injection) vs Humalog® Mix 75/25 (75% Insulin Lispro Protamine Suspension and 25% Insulin Lispro Injection) as add-on Therapy in Type 2 Diabetes Patients Failing Sulfonylurea and Glucophage (Metformin) Combination Treatment: a Randomized, Open, Parallel Study

Study Primary Objectives:

To compare glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c (A1C), between insulin glargine and 75% insulin lispro protamine suspension/25% insulin lispro as add-on therapies in subjects who failed oral combination therapy with sulfonylurea and metformin.

Study Secondary Objectives :

To compare the following measures between subjects receiving insulin glargine or 75% insulin lispro protamine suspension/25% insulin lispro:

  • Incidence of hypoglycemia
  • Change in weight
  • Change in serum lipid profile
  • Percentage of subjects achieving A1C levels ≤7%

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Insulin glargineExperimentalLantus (insulin glargine) administered subcutaneously 15 minutes before the evening meal for 24 weeks. The initial dosage was 10 units /day for 7 days. This was followed by titration every 7 days by increasing the dosage until control was established. Insulin dosages were increased according to a subject's glucose values determined by Self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG). The starting dosage of metformin or sulfonylurea was the dosage the subject was taking when randomized. The dosage was to remain unchanged during the course of the study. The administration schedule was left to the discretion of the investigator.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Insulin glargine and 75% insulin lispro protamine suspension and 25 % insulin lispro injection in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Sanofi at 1 site 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 9 inclusion and 14 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 18 Apr 2011. 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 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. 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 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?

Change from baseline in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels at week 24 (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 18 Apr 2011.
