Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2NCT01767389
Glucagon-like Peptide (GLP) Utilization and Safety
An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by GlaxoSmithKline.
Trial summary
This study will assess the utilization patterns (adherence, source of the index antidiabetic agent (ADA) and treatment modification) of the marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (exenatide and liraglutide), dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and linagliptin) and… Read more about this study

Study population: The study population will include subjects aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 64 years as of index date and those who have continuous enrolment for at least 12 months in Truven (Thomson Reuters) commercial health insurance database from 2005-2011. The Truven database captures person-specific clinical utilization, expenditures, and enrolment across inpatient, outpatient, prescription drug, and carve-out services from a selection of large employers, health plans, and government and public organizations. This databases links paid claims and encounter data to detailed patient information across sites and types of providers, and over time. The annual medical databases include private sector health data from approximately 100 payers. Historically, more than 500 million claim records are available in the database. The Commercial Claims and Encounters Database represents the medical experience of insured employees and their dependents for active employees, early retirees, COBRA continues, and their dependents i
Who may be able to join
- Subjects aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 64 years as of index date and those who have continuous enrolment for at least 12 months in Truven
- Subjects should have complete medical and pharmacy benefits and continuous enrolment in the health plan for at least 12 months before the index date (pre-index period).
- Subjects should also have at least 1 claim of T2D diagnosis identified using ICD-9 codes 250.x0 or 250.x2 (excluding 250.x1 and/or 250.x3 - Type 1 diabetes and 648.0x - gestational diabetes)
Who cannot join
- For the objective of evaluating the association between GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors and acute pancreatitis as compared to the association observed between this outcome and the use of other ADAs, subjects having evidence of pancreatic disease (ICD 9 code of 577.xx) in the pre-index period (12 months before the index date) will be excluded.
About this study
Official title: Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Agonists: Treatment Utilization Patterns and Risk of Acute Pancreatitis
This study will assess the utilization patterns (adherence, source of the index antidiabetic agent (ADA) and treatment modification) of the marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (exenatide and liraglutide), dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and linagliptin) and other ADAs and the incidence rate of acute pancreatitis among the users of these GLP-1 receptor agonists and users of DPP-4 inhibitors, separately, in comparison to other ADAs.
The proposed study will help in understanding the treatment utilization patterns and the incidence rate of acute pancreatitis among users of the marketed GLP-1 receptor agonists. This study differs from previous observational studies by including both exenatide and liraglutide and follow-up time is expected to be longer in the current study (2005 - 2011).
This study will be a retrospective cohort study conducted in the Truven (Thomson Reuters) commercial health insurance database from 2005-2011.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
The GLP-1 receptor agonist usersOther
The GLP-1 receptor agonist users are classified based on the receipt of a GLP-1 receptor agonist at the index date. GLP-1 receptor agonists included in this study are exenatide and liraglutide
DPP-4 inhibitor usersOther
DPP-4 inhibitor users are classified based on the receipt of a DPP-4 inhibitor prescription at the index date. The DPP-4 inhibitors included in this study are sitagliptin, saxagliptin, linagliptin, combination of sitagliptin and metformin (Janumet), and combination of sitagliptin and simvastatin (Juvisync)
Other ADA usersOther
Classes of ADA's other than GLP-1 receptor agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors will be included in the 'other ADA' exposure group
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Type 2 diabetes patients taking antidiabetic agents | Subjects should also have at least 1 claim of T2D diagnosis identified using ICD-9 codes 250.x0 or 250.x2 (excluding 250.x1 and/or 250.x3 - Type 1 diabetes and 648.0x - gestational diabetes). Receives: Other: The GLP-1 receptor agonist users; Other: DPP-4 inhibitor users; Other: Other ADA users |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
For treatment utilization patterns: adherence will be assessed.
For acute pancreatitis: the study outcome will be the first incidence of acute pancreatitis identified by the ICD-9 code of 577.0 listed as a primary discharge diagnosis on a hospitalization claim. Adherence to GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors and other ADAs will be measured by Medication Possession Ratio (MPR). MPR will be calculated at the class-level for each of the classes of ADA until one of the censoring events.
Measured: 6 years
For treatment utilization patterns: source of the index ADA (add-on, switch or new therapy) will be assessed.
Measured: 6 years
For treatment utilization patterns: treatment modification (discontinuation of the index ADA, switching of the index and concomitant ADA, and add-on therapy) will be assessed.
Measured: 6 years

This study will assess the utilization patterns (adherence, source of the index antidiabetic agent (ADA) and treatment modification) of the marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (exenatide and liraglutide), dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and linagliptin) and other ADAs and the incidence rate of acute pancreatitis among the users of these GLP-1 receptor agonists and users of DPP-4 inhibitors, separately, in comparison to other ADAs.

This study differs from previous observational studies by including both exenatide and liraglutide and follow-up time is expected to be longer in the current study (2005 - 2011).
This study will be a retrospective cohort study conducted in the Truven (Thomson Reuters) commercial health insurance database from 2005-2011.

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.
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?
For treatment utilization patterns: adherence will be assessed. (time frame: 6 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Aug 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
