About this study

Official title: Comparison of Switching to Premixed Insulin With Add-on Rapid-acting Insulin in Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Basal Insulin

Comparison of efficacy and safety of different insulin regimens between basal bolus and premixed insulin in poorly controlled type 2 diabetes

Read the detailed description

This is a 24-week, prospective, open-label, randomized, parallel-group study conducted in approximately 140 patients with type 2 diabetes from Mackay Memorial Hospitals and Mackay Memorial Hospital Taitung branch. After enrollment, eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either Basal-plus therapy(BPT) or Preprandial premix therapy(PPT). The effectiveness of advancing insulin therapy will be assessed at baseline and at 12 and 24 weeks after initiation of study prescription. The safety will be followed during the 24-week study period. All study procedure will be conducted after obtaining informed consent.

Study groups in NCT02219750
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Preprandial premix therapyActive comparatorswitch twice-daily insulin Preprandial premix therapy mean that transition of advance insulin based on the basal insulin daily total dose at study entry divided into two equal dose of preprandial NovoMix 30. Patient discontinued all pre-study oral antidiabetic drug(OAD), including sulfonylureas, glinides, Thiazolidinedione(TZD) and Dipeptidyl peptidase-4(DPP-4) inhibitor but left metformin alone
Receives: Drug: switch twice-daily insulin
Basal-plus insulinActive comparatorswitch twice-daily insulin Basal-plus insulin consisted of continued previous basal insulin and add-on once-daily insulin aspart(NovoRapid) before breakfast. The starting dose of insulin aspart was 4 unit(U) before breakfast and continued under previous basal insulin dose.
Receives: Drug: switch twice-daily insulin

What is being measured

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

  1. HbA1c

    To compare the change in HbA1c from baseline to endpoint for each groups at Week 24

    Measured: 24week duration

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. achieving goal percentage

    To compare the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c < 7% at Week 24.

    Measured: 24weeks duration

  2. plasma glucose

    To compare the changes in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) at Week 24.

    Measured: 24 week duration

  3. weight change

    To compare the change in body weight at each visit.

    Measured: 24 weeks duration

  4. incidence of hypoglcyemia

    To evaluate the incidence of self-reported hypoglycemia episodes.

    Measured: 24 weeks duration

  5. total insulin dose

    To estimate total insulin dose.

    Measured: 24 weeks duration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing switch twice-daily insulin in people with Diabetes, run by Mackay Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 5 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 17 Aug 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 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. 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?

HbA1c (time frame: 24week duration). 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 17 Aug 2018.
