About this study

Official title: Sonias Combination Tablets LD Special Drug Use Surveillance Survey in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Who Respond Poorly to Pioglitazone

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term use of pioglitazone/glimepiride combination tablets (Sonias Combination Tablets LD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who respond poorly to pioglitazone hydrochloride monotherapy (pioglitazone at 15 mg/day) in the routine clinical setting.

Read the detailed description

This is a special drug use surveillance on long-term use of pioglitazone/glimepiride combination tablets (Sonias Combination Tablets LD) designed to investigate the frequency of adverse drug reactions in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who respond poorly to pioglitazone hydrochloride monotherapy (pioglitazone at 15 mg/day).

The usual adult dosage is one tablet (15 mg/1 mg of pioglitazone/glimepiride) administered orally once daily before or after breakfast.

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of Adverse Drug Reactions

    Frequency of adverse drug reactions is defined as the number of participants with adverse drug reactions. Frequency, seriousness, and time to onset of adverse drug reactions were tabulated by each symptom. Adverse events 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. Among these, events which are considered possibly associated with a medicinal product are defined as adverse drug reactions.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Frequency of Serious Adverse Drug Reactions

    Frequency of serious adverse drug reactions is defined at the number of participants with serious adverse drug reactions. Frequency of serious adverse drug reactions were tabulated by each symptom. Adverse events 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. A serious adverse event is any experience that suggests a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect or precaution that: results in death, is life-threatening, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is medically significant. Among these, events which are considered possibly associated with a medicinal product are defined as adverse drug reactions.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)

    Tabulation of HbA1c values and the changes from Baseline at each test time point (test value at each test time point after Baseline - test value at Baseline). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and at Final assessment

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose Level

    Tabulation of fasting blood glucose level and the changes from Baseline at each test time point (test value at each test time point after Baseline - test value at Baseline). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and at Final assessment

  3. Change From Baseline in Fasting Insulin Level

    Tabulation of fasting insulin level and the changes from Baseline at each test time point (test value at each test time point after Baseline - test value at Baseline). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. A positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and at Final assessment
