Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to assess the reduction in treatment burden during 12 weeks of trelagliptin administration in patients with type 2 diabetes on diet and exercise therapy only. Eligible participants will be randomized to either the study drug (trelagliptin) group or the comparative drug (daily DPP-4 inhibitor) group. Treatment burden will be assessed using Diabetes Therapy Related -QOL (DTR-QOL) questionnaire and Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ).

Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Total Score for All Question Items in the Diabetes Therapy Related -QOL (DTR-QOL) Questionnaire at the End of Study

    DTR-QOL Questionnaire is a self-reported instrument assessing impact of diabetes treatment on health-related QOL. It includes 29 items across 4 subscales; Factor 1: Burden on social activities and daily activities (13 questions), Factor 2: Anxiety and dissatisfaction with treatment (8 questions), Factor 3: Hypoglycemia (4 questions) and Factor 4: Treatment satisfaction (4 questions). Each item is scored ranging from 1 to 7. Every score of the questions in Factor 1-3 and the score in Factor 4 converted into reverse (1-7 will be converted to 7-1) will be simply added up, and scores of each factor and the total figure will be subsequently converted from 0 to 100 (the best and worst scores will be equivalent to 100 and 0). Higher scores reflect better QOL and positive changes relative to baseline indicate improvement of QOL.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), up to the end of study (Week 12)

  17. Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.

Yes: Takeda makes patient-level, de-identified data sets and associated documents available for all interventional studies after applicable marketing approvals and commercial availability have been received (or program is completely terminated), an opportunity for the primary publication of the research and final report development has been allowed, and other criteria have been met as set forth in Takeda's Data Sharing Policy (see www.TakedaClinicalTrials.com for details). To obtain access, researchers must submit a legitimate academic research proposal for adjudication by an independent review panel, who will review the scientific merit of the research and the requestor's qualifications and conflict of interest that can result in potential bias. Once approved, qualified researchers who sign a data sharing agreement are provided access to these data in a secure research environment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Trelagliptin and Daily DPP-4 inhibitor in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Takeda at 27 sites in Japan.

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 10 inclusion and 13 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 22 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in Japan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Feb 2019). 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?

Change From Baseline in Total Score for All Question Items in the Diabetes Therapy Related -QOL (DTR-QOL) Questionnaire at the End of Study (time frame: Baseline (Week 0), up to the end of study (Week 12)). 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 NCT03014479, 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 22 Dec 2023.
