About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Exenatide-LAR Alone and in Combination With Dapagliflozin in Overweight/Obese, Insulin Treated Patients With Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to see what the effects of using one or two additional diabetes drugs (dapagliflozin and exenatide-LAR) are on blood sugar levels in patients who are taking insulin. This research study is being done to investigate which of these commonly-used medications, medication combinations or increasing insulin dose is better.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in overweight/obese patients with insulin treated uncontrolled type 2 diabetes

Eligible subjects willing to participate in the study will be randomized to one of 3 treatment groups:

Group 1: Insulin titration + behavioral therapy Basal insulin titration upto 12 weeks with 2 U increment every 3 days (Fasting glucose goal <110) based on self-monitored blood glucose.

After 12 weeks, patients with HbA1c >8% will switch to a basal bolus regimen.

Group 2: Exenatide-LAR 2mg q week x 24 weeks + Dapagliflozin placebo x 52 weeks + titrated basal insulin +behavioral therapy.

Group 3: Exenatide-LAR 2mg q week x 24 weeks plus Dapagliflozin 5mg QD x 2 weeks followed by 10mg QD x22 weeks +titrated basal insulin + behavioral therapy.

Behavioral therapy will be delivered by registered dietitians and will include the BMIQ program -a web based medical weight loss program.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in HbA1c

    To determine the efficacy of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin in lowering HbA1c compared with insulin titration in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at 24 weeks

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in Body Weight

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on body weight in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  2. Change in waist circumference

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on waist circumference in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  3. Change in fasting glucose

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on fasting glucose (FG) in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  4. Change in fasting lipids

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on fasting lipids in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  5. Change in blood pressure

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on blood pressure in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

  6. Change in total dose insulin

    To determine the effect of Exenatide-LAR and Exenatide-LAR plus dapagliflozin vs insulin titration on total dose insulin in obese, insulin treated subjects with uncontrolled T2DM

    Measured: baseline, 24 weeks

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted23 Jun 2016 (estimated)
  2. Study startJun 2016
  3. Primary completionJun 2018 (estimated)
  4. Study completionDec 2018 (estimated)

Why it stopped: Inability to enroll due to the widespread use of both classes of drugs in patients with T2DM, including those on concomitant insulin therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Exenatide-LAR plus Dapagliflozin, Insulin Titration and Behavioral Therapy in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 22 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Mar 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 United States. 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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 in HbA1c (time frame: baseline, 24 weeks). 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 3 Mar 2017.
