About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Two Part, Randomized, Parallel Group, Placebo and Sitagliptin Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of GSK256073 Administered Once or Twice Daily for 12 Weeks in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Who Are Being Treated With Metformin

The aim of this combined, two part study is to evaluate the safety and glucose lowering effects of GSK256073 when administered to diabetic subjects for 12 weeks.

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted at centers in Europe and the United States. The study is being conducted in two parts. Part A (n = 90 subjects) will provide a preliminary evaluation of 12 weeks of treatment. Initiation of part B (n = 210 additional subjects) will be dependent on the results observed in part A. The emerging data from part A will be used to guide selection of the doses in Part B. Up to 8 dose levels of GSK256073 may be included in part B. The emerging exposure response relationships from the part A interim analysis will be used to guide dose selection.

Each subject enrolled in the study will undergo screening procedures, a 2 week placebo run-in period, baseline assessments, randomization, a twelve week treatment period, and a 2 week follow-up period. Following completion of the baseline visit and randomization into the study, subjects will return to the clinic for safety and efficacy assessments at Weeks 3, 6, 9, and 12. A subject's total participation in the study will last up to approximately 20 weeks. Subjects will continue their current prescribed regimen of metformin (glucophage) monotherapy and will monitor fasting blood glucose levels daily using a glucometer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the definition above, or is an event of possible drug-induced liver injury.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  2. Change From Baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP)

    Mean of triplicate measurements at each time point was considered for the summary. Baseline was defined as pre-dose of Day 1 visit. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the corresponding post-treatment values. It was assessed on Baseline, Day 1 (12 hours), Day 2 (pre-dose and 12 hours), Week 3, 6 (pre-dose and 12 hours), 9 and 12.

    Measured: Baseline (pre-dose Day 1) and up to Week 12

  3. Change From Baseline in Heart Rate

    Mean of triplicate measurements at each time point was considered for the summary. Baseline was defined as pre-dose of Day 1 visit. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the corresponding post-treatment values. It was assessed on Baseline (pre-dose Day 1), Day 1 (12 hours), Day 2, Week 3, 6, 9 and 12.

    Measured: Baseline (pre-dose Day 1) and up to Week 12

  4. Number of Participants With Abnormal Electrocardiograms (ECGs) Findings

    Single 12-lead ECGs were obtained at each time point during the study using an ECG machine that automatically calculated the heart rate and measured PR, QRS, QT, and QTc intervals. It was assessed at Baseline (pre-dose Day 1), Day 2, Week 3, Week 6 and 12. Participants with normal, abnormal not clinically significant and abnormal clinically significant ECG were presented.

    Measured: Up to Week 20

  5. Number of Participants With Clinical Chemistry Abnormalities of Potential Clinical Importance (PCI)

    Clinical chemistry parameters included blood urea nitrogen (BUN), potassium, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, creatinine, chloride, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), uric acid, fasting glucose, total carbon dioxide, gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT), albumin, sodium, calcium, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein, creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and fasting lipid panel including total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. It was assessed on Baseline (pre-dose Day 1), Week 3 and 12. Data for parameters with high and low of PCI is provided.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  6. Number of Participants With Hematology Abnormalities of Potential Clinical Importance (PCI)

    Hematology parameters included platelet, red blood cell (RBC) count, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), neutrophils, white blood cell (WBC) count (absolute), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), lymphocytes, reticulocyte count, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), monocytes, hemoglobin, eosinophils, hematocrit and basophils. It was assessed on Baseline (pre-dose Day 1) and 12. Data for parameters with high and low of PCI is provided.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  7. Number of Participants With Abnormal Urinalysis: Glucose, Protein, Blood and Ketones by Dipstick

    Urinalysis parameters included glucose, protein, blood and ketones by dipstick. It was assessed on Baseline (Day -1) and 12. Urine glucose was measured as grams per deciliter (G/dL).

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  8. Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 12

    Blood samples for analysis of HbA1c were collected at Baseline (Day -1), Day 41, Week 9 and Week 12. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the corresponding post-treatment values. Baseline was defined as Day -1 visit. Statistics is provided for least square mean at Week 12.

    Measured: Baseline (Day -1) and up to Week 12

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change From Baseline in 12 Hour Non-esterified Fatty Acids (NEFA) and Glucose Weighted Mean Concentration Value at Day 2 and at Week 6

    Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the corresponding post-treatment values. Baseline was defined as weighted mean value at Day 1 visit. Statistics is provided for least square mean at Week 6. It was assessed on Baseline (Day 1), Day 2 and Week 6.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and up to Week 6

  2. GSK256073 AUC and HbA1c at Week 12 Was Evaluated to Establish the Exposure-response Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) Relationship

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  3. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose at Week 12

    Mean of triplicate measurements at pre-dose time point were considered for the summary. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the corresponding post-treatment values. Baseline was defined as mean of Day 1 pre-dose visit. Statistics is provided for least square mean at Week 12. It was assessed on Day 1 (pre-dose), 2 (pre-dose), Week 6 (pre-dose) and Week 12.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and up to Week 12

  4. Change From Baseline in Fasting Insulin at Week 12

    Mean of triplicate measurements at pre-dose time point were considered for the summary.
