About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Basal Insulin Glargine Combination With Exenatide Bid vs Switching Premix Human Insulin to Aspart30 in T2DM With Inadequate Glycaemic Control on Premixed Human Insulin and Metformin: a Randomized, Open, Parallel Trial

Efficacy and Safety of Basal Insulin Glargine Combination with Exenatide bid vs Switching Premix Human Insulin to Aspart30 in T2DM with Inadequate Glycaemic Control on Premixed Human Insulin and Metformin: a Randomized, Open, Parallel trial.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicentre, open-label, randomized and parallel trial that will compare the efficacy and safety of basal insulin glargine combination with Exenatide bid vs. switching premix human insulin to aspart30 in type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycaemic control on premixed human insulin and metformin. Approximately 248 patients will be enrolled in the study from China and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the 2 treatment arms: once-daily insulin glargine + twice-daily exenatide + metformin; or twice-daily aspart 30 + metformin.

Study treatment will continue for 24 weeks. The primary efficacy measure is the change in HbA1c at 24 weeks. The study consists of 3 periods: a 1-week screening (period A), a 12-week run-in period (period B) and a 24-week treatment period (period C).

What is being measured

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

  1. the absolute change in HbA1c from baseline to 24-week endpoint of basal insulin glargine combination with exenatide bid vs. switching to aspart30 in type 2 diabetic patients inadequately controlled on premixed human insulin and metformin.

    Measured: from baseline to 24-week endpoint

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in HbA1c from baseline to 12 weeks endpoint

    Measured: from baseline to 12 weeks endpoint

  2. The percentage of participants who achieved HbA1c ≤ 6.5% and < 7%

    Measured: 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  3. Fasting blood glucose

    Measured: 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  4. Daily insulin use

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  5. Change in body weight

    Measured: from baseline to 12 and 24 weeks

  6. The incidence and rate of hypoglycaemic events during the study

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing glargine + exenatide and aspart 30 in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Huazhong University of Science and Technology 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 18 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 14 Nov 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 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?

the absolute change in HbA1c from baseline to 24-week endpoint of basal insulin glargine combination with exenatide bid vs. switching to aspart30 in type 2 diabetic patients inadequately controlled on premixed human insulin and metformin. (time frame: from baseline to 24-week endpoint). 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 14 Nov 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
