  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have been examined at a medical institution

Who may be able to join

  • Participants who did not adequately respond to the following treatment • Treatment with sulfonylurea in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy

Who cannot join

  • Participants with severe ketosis, diabetic coma or precoma, or type 1 diabetes mellitus (these participants require prompt adjustment of hyperglycemia by fluid infusion and insulin, and hence use of Nesina is not appropriate).
  • Participants with severe infection, pre- or post-operative participants, or participants with serious traumatic injury (blood glucose control by insulin injection is desirable for these participants, and hence use of Nesina is not appropriate).
  • Participants with a history of hypersensitivity to any ingredient of Nesina.

About this study

Official title: Nesina Tablets Special Drug Use Surveillance Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Combination Therapy With Sulfonylurea

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and efficacy of long-term combination therapy with alogliptin (Nesina) and sulfonylurea in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus who responded inadequately to treatment with sulfonylurea in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy.

Read the detailed description

This is a special drug use surveillance on long-term use of alogliptin with a 1-year (12-month) observational period, designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term combination therapy with alogliptin and sulfonylurea in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a routine clinical setting.

Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus who responded inadequately to treatment with sulfonylurea in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy will be enrolled in this study. The planned sample size is 1,000.

The usual adult dosage for oral use is 1 alogliptin tablet (25 mg) once daily.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01964950
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AlogliptinAll participants who received alogliptin 25 milligram (mg), tablets, orally, once daily for up to 12 months along with Sulfonylurea (SU) or without SU within 3 months from the start of administration of alogliptin and during the treatment period of alogliptin as per routine clinical practice were observed in this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Reporting One or More Adverse Drug Reactions

    Adverse drug reactions are defined as adverse events (AEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from the first dose of study drug to the last dose of study drug. The safety analysis was planned to be assessed in alogliptin + SU and alogliptin + other arm separately.

    Measured: Baseline up to 12 months

  2. Number of Participants Reporting One or More Serious Adverse Drug Reaction

    Serious adverse drug reactions are defined as serious adverse events (SAEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. The safety analysis was planned to be assessed in alogliptin + SU and alogliptin + other arm separately.

    Measured: Baseline up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)

    The change in the value of glycosylated hemoglobin (the concentration of glucose bound to hemoglobin as a percent of the absolute maximum that can be bound) collected at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline. The efficacy analysis was planned to be assessed in the total alogliptin arm irrespective of SU treatment.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 1, 3, 6, 12, and final assessment (up to Month 12)

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Objective Glycemic Control

    The rate of achieving objective glycemic control in HbA1c level was calculated at baseline and final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12). Glycemic control was measured as <8.0%, <7.0%, and <6.0% of glycosylated hemoglobin. The efficacy analysis was planned to be assessed in the total alogliptin arm irrespective of SU treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and final assessment (up to Month 12)

  3. Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose

    The change between the fasting blood glucose value collected at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline. The efficacy analysis was planned to be assessed in the total alogliptin arm irrespective of the SU treatment.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 1, 3, 6, 12, and final assessment (up to Month 12)

  4. Change From Baseline in Fasting Insulin Level

    The change between the fasting insulin value collected at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline. The efficacy analysis was planned to be assessed in the total alogliptin arm irrespective of SU treatment.

    Measured: Months 1, 3, 6, 12, and final assessment (up to Month 12)

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2017. 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 Japan. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Apr 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants Reporting One or More Adverse Drug Reactions (time frame: Baseline up to 12 months). The study lists 2 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 13 Apr 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
