About this study

Official title: Phase 3 Study of Liraglutide in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes Using Insulin

Liraglutide is a GLP1 agonist used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes and is is asociated with improved blood glucose control, weight loss and low rates of hypoglycemia when used alone or in combination with metformin. Liraglutide has not been extensively tested in people with type 2 diabetes who are taking relatively large doses of insulin (>50 U/day). Often these patients are insulin resistant and despite using large doses of insulin are not able to achieve glucose targets. The rationale for this study is to assess if the addition of liraglutide in addition to usual care versus placebo can improve blood glucose levels in people not achieving a target HbA1C of less than 7.0%.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing liraglutide in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Manitoba at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 21 Jan 2016. 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 Canada. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Error made by local pharmacy caused mixed randomization of 20 participants). 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 A1c (time frame: Baseline to 24 wks). 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 21 Jan 2016.
