Trial summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether treatment with pioglitazone is associated with risk of incident cancer at the 10 most common sites in a cohort of participants with recognized diabetes along with the assessment of association between diabetes severity and cancer risk.

Study population: Participants with a historical diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with pioglitazone exposure identified from the Kaiser Permanente of Northern California(KPNC) Diabetes Registry (with or without diabetes) and had completed Member Health Survey (MHS) were enrolled in the epidemiology study.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. has been in the KPNC diabetes registry Diabetes Mellitus (DM) registry, aged 40 years or older and are members of KPNC as of January 1, 1997 and had no prior diagnosis of the cancer of interest.

About this study

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether treatment with pioglitazone is associated with risk of incident cancer at the 10 most common sites in a cohort of participants with recognized diabetes along with the assessment of association between diabetes severity and cancer risk.

Read the detailed description

The study enroll a large population of approximately 252467 participants. This epidemiology study of diabetes and cancer risk is an expansion study which would include estimation of cancer rate among KPNC members with or without diabetes and the relative risks of cancers associated with a diagnosis of diabetes. The study included diabetes participants who were KPNC members between 1997 and 2011. It also included a subset of participants who took the 1996/7 diabetes survey and Member Health Survey (MHS) in 1993, 1999, 2001 or 2003.

This multi-center trial was conducted in the United States of America. The overall time to participate in this study was approximately 15.5 years. The participants were followed-up from January 1, 1997 up to December 31, 2011.

What is being measured

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

  1. Age and Sex-Standardized Incidence Rates for the 10 Most Common Cancers Stratified by Diabetes Status

    Age and gender adjusted incidence rates, stratified by diabetes status, was calculated using the direct method (2000 US Census as standard), with further stratification on calendar year. Cancer incidence rates were calculated with attention to the proper allocation of at-risk person-time. The association between diabetes and risk of each of the 10 most common cancers was assessed using Cox proportional hazards regression models with control for available potential confounders: age, gender. Similarly, Cox regression technique was used to examine the association between diabetes status and cancer risk among survey responders with adjustment for additional potential confounding variable.

    Measured: 15 years

  2. Hazard Ratio for Risk of 10 Common Cancers Associated With Diabetes

    The association between diabetes and risk of each of the 10 most common cancers was assessed by calculating hazard ratio using Cox proportional hazards regression models with control for available potential confounders: age, gender and calendar years. Cox regression techniques was used to examine the association between DM status and cancer risk with adjustment for potential confounding variables in the survey respondent cohort.

    Measured: 15 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Cancer, run by Takeda.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 7 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Mar 2017). 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?

Age and Sex-Standardized Incidence Rates for the 10 Most Common Cancers Stratified by Diabetes Status (time frame: 15 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Mar 2018.
