About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Double-Blind, Randomized, Parallel-Group Placebo-Controlled Study to Compare the Effect of 13-Week Treatment With Vildagliptin as Add-On Therapy to Improve Glucose Variability in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients Inadequately Controlled With Insulin.

The purpose of the study is to assess if the addition of vildagliptin as add-on therapy improves glucose variability in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients inadequately controlled with insulin, with special emphasis in hypoglycemic episodes measured by continuous glucose monitoring.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of patients with hyperglycemic events evaluated with CGM

    An hypoglycemic event is defined as any continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measurement less than 60 mg/dL and a hyperglycemic is define as any CGM greater than 140 mg/dL.

    Measured: At 13 weeks

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Number of hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia measured by CGM

    An episode of hypoglycemia is defined as any value of glucose under 60 mg/dL, an episode of hyperglycemia is defined as any value of glucose above 140mg/dL measured by CGM.

    Measured: 13 weeks

  2. Area under the curve (AUC 0-24) of the excursions of glucose values below 60 mg/dl per day

    Duration and intensity of hypoglycemic episodes, measured as area under the curve (AUC 0-24) of the excursions of glucose values below 60 mg/dl per day, measured by continuous glucose monitoring

    Measured: 0 to 24 hours daily for week 1, 4 and 13

  3. Average of insulin units per day administered during the study

    Change from baseline

    Measured: 13 weeks

  4. Changes from the baseline in Lipid Profile

    Lipid Profile will include total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  5. Change from baseline in Body weight

    Weight will be measured on Kg.

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  6. Change from baseline in Blood pressure (BP),

    BP will be mesured on mmHg

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  7. Change from baseline in Fasting plasma glucose (FPG),

    FPG will be measured on mg/dL

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  8. Change from baseline in Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c)

    HbA1c will be measured on %

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  9. Change from baseline in Creatinine

    Creatinine will be measured on mg/dL

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  10. Change from baseline in C-peptide

    C-Peptide will be measured on microIU/mL

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  11. Changes from baseline in alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST)

    ALT/AST will be measured on ratio.

    Measured: Baseline, 13 week

  12. Changes from baseline in Direct bilirubin

    Bilirubin will be measure on mg/dL

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  13. Changes from baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI)

    Measured: Baseline, 13 weeks

  14. Number of patients with adverse events, serious adverse events and death as evaluation of safety and tolerability of coadministration of vildagliptin with insulin

    Measured: 13 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vildagliptin and Insulin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 13 sites in Mexico.

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 9 inclusion and 12 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 5 Jun 2019. 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 Mexico. 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 was stopped early. 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?

Percentage of patients with hyperglycemic events evaluated with CGM (time frame: At 13 weeks). 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 5 Jun 2019.
