About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Double-blind, Phase 3 Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of LC15-0444 in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Double-blind, randomized, multicenter, multinational (South Korea and India), parallel group study The study was divided into three parts: part 1 was started with an initial 2 weeks of exercise/diet program followed by another 2 weeks of single-blind placebo run-in period; part 2 was a double-blind treatment period during which eligible patients were randomized to LC15-0444 50mg or placebo groups and received the assigned treatment for 24 weeks; part 3 was for those patients who completed part 1 \& 2 and consented to receive another 28 weeks of treatment with LC15-0444 50mg. Screening tests were performed on the patients who had given the written informed consent. After 2-week exercise/diet program according to the generally recognized guideline, patients took placebo for another 2 weeks while continuing exercise/diet program. When the 2-week placebo run-in period was completed, eligible patients were assigned either to placebo or 50 mg of LC15-0444 with 1:1 ratio. During the total of 24- week treatment period of part 2 after randomization, each patient visited the investigational site at Week 6, 12, 18, and 24. Completing treatment with placebo or LC15-0444 50mg for 24 weeks after randomization, each patient was asked to provide consent to participate in the part 3 of the study where all the patients were to receive LC15-0444 50mg regardless of the treatment received during the part 2 of the study. During 28-week treatment period of the part 3, each patient visited the investigational site at Week 30, 38, 46, and 52. Total study period from screening was 56 weeks per each patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing LC15-0444 50mg qd in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by LG Life Sciences at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 15 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 May 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 South Korea. 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 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 of HbAlc (time frame: from baseline to Week 24). 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 May 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
