About this study

Official title: A Multinational, Open Label, Non Comparative, 24-week Study to Evaluate the Blood Glucose Lowering Efficacy and Safety of a Fixed Dose Combination of Glimepiride and Metformin in Patients With Inadequately Controlled Type 2 Diabetes

Primary Objective:

-To demonstrate the efficacy of a fixed combination of glimepiride + metformin in terms of HbA1c reduction, during 24-week treatment period in patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Secondary Objective:

To assess the effects of the fixed combination of glimepiride and metformin at week 24 on:

  • Percentage of patients reaching HbA1c <7%
  • Percentage of patients reaching HbA1c <6.5%.
  • Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)
  • Safety and tolerability
Read the detailed description

The study duration for each patient is approximately 27 weeks with 3 periods: 2-week screening period followed by 24-week treatment period and 3 days follow-up period with a last call phone visit.

Being tested
Glimepiride+metformin (Amaryl M®) - HOE4900
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    Pharmaceutical form:tablet

    Route of administration: oral

Study groups in NCT01699932
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Arm 1Experimental24-week treatment period: starting dose will be of 2/1000 mg or 4/2000 mg of glimepiride/metformin fixed combination (Amaryl M® ) depending on the previous treatment and dose. The Interventional medicinal product's dose will be increased every 2 weeks up to the maximum tolerated dose of 8/2000 mg of Amaryl M® , and adjusted throughout the 24-week treatment period according to fasting Self Monitored Plasma Glucose (SMPG) values in the objective to obtain fasting SMPG values ≤ 130mg/dL (7.2mmol/L) and > 70 mg/dL (3.9mmol/L) without symptomatic hypoglycemia.
Receives: Drug: Glimepiride+metformin (Amaryl M®) - HOE4900

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Glimepiride+metformin (Amaryl M®) - HOE4900 in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Sanofi at 13 sites in 3 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 8 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Ukraine, Russia, Lebanon. 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 in HbA1c (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 8 May 2014.
