What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Hepatic Fat Fraction

    The hepatic fat fraction (HFF) was calculated by a core imaging laboratory from noncontrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the liver. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Alanine Aminotransferase Levels

    Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) assessed by a central laboratory. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  2. Number of Participants With Hepatobiliary Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)

    Number of participants with ALT or AST greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal at a post-baseline visit. A summary of other non-serious AEs, and all SAE's, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events section.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  3. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Fasting Lipids Levels

    Lipid values (cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides) assessed by a central laboratory. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  4. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Fasting Blood Glucagon

    Glucagon values assessed by a central laboratory. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  5. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Body Weight

    Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  6. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  7. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Fasting Plasma Glucose

    Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  8. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Blood Pressure

    Seated systolic blood pressure (SBP) and seated diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured in triplicate throughout the study. At each visit, all available blood pressure measurements for a subject were averaged to provide the blood pressure for that visit. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  9. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Pulse Rate

    Seated pulse rate was measured in triplicate throughout the study. At each visit, all available pulse measurements for a subject were averaged to provide the pulse for that visit. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for treatment, country, baseline HbA1c stratum (<=8.0%, >8.0%), visit, baseline score, and treatment-by-visit.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  10. Change From Baseline to 6 Months in 7-Point Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG)

    7-point profile consists of pre-meal and 2-hour postprandial SMBG measurements for the morning, midday, and evening meals in 1 day and at 3 AM (nocturnal blood glucose measurement). Pre-meal measurements were taken before the subject began eating the meal. Participants recorded their glucose measurements in their study diaries.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  11. Population Pharmacokinetics: Apparent Clearance of LY2409021

    Reported as a Population Estimate with % Standard Errors of Estimation (SEE), 5th-95th confidence interval.

    Measured: Day 1 Month 1, 3, 6, 9, predose, 1 hour postdose,

  12. Population Pharmacokinetics: Apparent Volume of Distribution of LY2409021

    Measured: Day 1 Month 1, 3, 6, 9, predose, 1 hour postdose,

  13. Rate of Hypoglycemic Events Adjusted Per 30 Days

    Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia, an event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia are accompanied by a measured plasma glucose concentration <=70 mg/dL (<=39 mmol/L),is presented. Rate: (30 days) is calculated as: (number of episodes during the time period divided by the number of days during the time period) multiplied by 30.

    Measured: Baseline through 6 months

  14. Number of Participants With Hypoglycemic Events

    Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia, an event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia are accompanied by a measured plasma glucose concentration <=70 mg/dL (<=39 mmol/L), is presented. The number of subjects with an event are subjects who had at least one episode of documented symptomatic hypoglycemia during the time period.

    Measured: Baseline through 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LY2409021, Sitagliptin and Metformin in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 33 sites in 4 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 9 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites in United States, Puerto Rico, Greece, Taiwan. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2018). 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?

Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Hepatic Fat Fraction (time frame: Baseline, 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02111096, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Oct 2019.
