Trial summary

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Galvus (Vildagliptin) Efficacy Versus Placebo in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes, Inadequately Controlled by Metformin and Basal Insulin, This One Having Been Properly Titrated.

The main objective is to show that the addition of Galvus versus placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with metformin (at the maximum tolerated dose) and basal insulin properly titrated, allows a greater proportion of patients achieving an HbA1c below 7%.

The primary efficacy endpoint was the percentage of patients responding to treatment (HbA1c less than 7%) after 3 months of treatment with Galvus or placebo

Read the detailed description
  • Visit V1 : screening
  • Inclusion visit V2: Be verified inclusion criteria of patient. At the inclusion visit will be collected:
  • Informed consent to participate in the study…
  • The following data: age, duration of diabetes, usual basal insulin dose, other co-morbidities : hypertension, complications of diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking (and their associated treatments).
  • Data from physical examination and in particular: weight, BMI, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic (DBP)
  • Therapeutic adjustments can be made. In the case of inefficient combination with a sulphonylurea (HbA1c> 7%), it will be stopped and basal insulin will be titrated during the run- in period (2 months) in order to obtain a good control of fasting glucose.
  • Visit V3 : At the randomization visit, be collected the results of HbA1c and other biological assessment (FPG, fasting lipid profile). Moreover, the insulin will be collected and the patient will receive the treatment for 3 months (for ex Galvus in this case according to randomisation).
  • Visit V4a the glycemic holter will be introduced and removed 5 days later (at visit V4B). The interstitial glucose will be calibrated during the Holter by the blood glucose. When collecting the glycemic holter, patients will also have a clinical examination and a new biological assessment (HbA1c, FPG, C peptide, fasting lipids ...) and an assessment of their dietary intake during the port the holter (overall calorie intake: cal + G, L, P)
  • Visit V5 : the patient will receive the treatment for 3 months (placebo at this visit according the example cited above ).
  • Visit V6A, it will be the same as for the visit V4a, the glycemic holter will be introduced and removed at V6B visit. Similarly, in the collection of glycemic holter, patients will also have a new clinical examination, laboratory evaluation (HbA1c, FPG, fasting lipids ...) and a dietary assessment (overall calorie intake: cal + G, L, P).

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients responding to treatment (HbA1c less than 7%)

    Measured: after 3 months of treatment with Galvus or placebo

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Compare HbA1c and other clinical and laboratory parameters (fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting lipids, weight)

    Measured: after 3 months of treatment with Galvus or placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vildagliptin in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Centre d'Etudes et de Recherche pour l'Intensification du Traitement du Diabète at 1 site in France.

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 6 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 30 Jul 2015. 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 France. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Proportion of patients responding to treatment (HbA1c less than 7%) (time frame: after 3 months of treatment with Galvus or placebo). 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 30 Jul 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
