About this study
Official title: A Comparison of Exenatide and Insulin Glargine on Glycemic Variability in T2DM Patients Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Monotherapy
This is a 16-week, Single-center, Randomized, Open Label, Parallel Controlled Group Comparison of the Comprehensive Glycemic Control of Exenatide and Insulin Glargine on Type 2 Diabetes Patients Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Monotherapy.
Read the detailed description
Screening will be made to select eligible patients, then 44 patients receiving a stable dose of metformin (≥1500 mg daily) will be randomized (1:1) to receive exenatide or insulin glargine for 16 weeks. Exenatide will be administered twice daily by subcutaneous injection 30- 60 minutes before breakfast and dinner; the dose was 5 μg twice-daily for the first 4 weeks of treatment and 10 μg thereafter. Insulin glargine will be administered once daily at bedtime by subcutaneous injection. The dose of insulin glargine will initiate at ≥8 IU once-daily, and titrate based on a dosing algorithm targeting fasting blood glucose (FPG)<6.1 mmol/L. Titration is only allowed in first 4 weeks. At the end of the study, data will be collected and analyzed.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing exenatide and Insulin glargine in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by The Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School at 1 site in China.
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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 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 China. 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?
Mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE) change from baseline by continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) (time frame: 1±3day;112±3d). 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 NCT02325960, 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 23 Feb 2017.
