Trial summary

Response to treatment in Type 2 Diabetes is highly variable; the same medicine may have little effect in one person but a large effect in another. Understanding mechanisms of altered response to treatment could aid treatment selection and assist the design of new medications with lower nonresponse rates. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: MASTERMIND - Understanding Individual Variation in Treatment Response in Type 2

Response to treatment in Type 2 Diabetes is highly variable; the same medicine may have little effect in one person but a large effect in another. Understanding mechanisms of altered response to treatment could aid treatment selection and assist the design of new medications with lower nonresponse rates.

This study will examine the physiological mechanisms and potential clinical/biomarker predictors of altered response to sulphonylurea and DPPIV inhibitor glucose lowering medication and answer fundamental methodological questions for the future study of variation in treatment response in Type 2 Diabetes. Participants will withdraw sulphonylurea therapy for up to 2 weeks with assessment of baseline characteristics and glycaemic response. Participants will then enter an optional extension where they receive sulphonylurea or DPPIV inhibitor therapy in crossover fashion.

Read the detailed description

Participants will withdraw sulphonylurea therapy for up to 2 weeks (part 1) followed by an optional cross-over extension (part 2)where they are randomized to 4 weeks of treatment with Gliclazide (DPP-IV thera) or Sitagliptin (sulphonylurea), followed by 4 weeks of the second treatment with a 2 week wash-out period in between.

Part 1 will allow assessment of response rates to long standing sulphonylurea treatment in clinical practice and potential predictors of this, as well as whether a very brief period (1 week) of treatment withdrawal is a valid assessment of an individual's response to therapy. Part 2 will allow comparison of the approach in part one with response to the same treatment in a trial setting and will allow assessment on whether response is consistent across therapies with different mechanisms of action.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in fasting glucose

    Change in fasting glucose from 0 to 4 weeks post treatment change.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Additional changes in biochemical results

    Secondary outcome measures will include change in glycosylated albumin, HbA1c, home glucose day profile and mixed meal area under the curve glucose

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Gliclazide 80mg OD and Sitagliptin 100mg OD in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 7 inclusion and 8 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 21 Jun 2018. 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 United Kingdom. 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 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?

Change in fasting glucose (time frame: 4 weeks post treatment change). 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 Jun 2018.
