What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in N-terminal Pro B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) at Week 12

    Evaluation of NT-proBNP was performed by a central laboratory. For Change from baseline, Geometric mean is the geometric mean of the endpoint to baseline ratio. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this primary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12

Secondary outcomes (25)
  1. Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Weeks 12 and 36

    HbA1c was measured from a blood sample and analyzed using a National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program (NGSP) certified method at a central laboratory. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 36

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Weeks 12 and 36

    FPG was measured from a blood sample after an overnight fast; patients were not allowed to eat or drink anything (except water) for at least 8 h before each study visit. Samples were analyzed at a central laboratory. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 36

  3. Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Weeks 12 and 36

    Body weight was measured to the nearest 0.1 kg on a calibrated scale (weight and bio-impedance measurements), provided by the sponsor. Exceptionally (e.g. if the body weight exceeded the limits of the provided scale) sites were allowed to use another scale for weight measurement as available, but during the study the same scale was to be used for the same patient. The measurement was performed with the study patient in underwear and without shoes. Indoor clothing was also acceptable, but measurements were to be done consistently (either with underwear or with indoor clothing) throughout the study. Voiding before weight measurement was required. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 36

  4. Change From Baseline in Body Composition Assessed by Bio-impedance (Total Body Fat Mass) at Weeks 12 and 36

    Body composition was measured in all patients using bio-impedance, except in patients where it was contra-indicated, e.g. those using an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. Body composition parameters were assessed as available for the different models of calibrated bio-impedance scales. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 36

  5. Change From Baseline in Body Composition Assessed by Bio-impedance (Visceral Fat Level) at Weeks 12 and 36

    Body composition was measured in all patients using bio-impedance, except in patients where it was contra-indicated, e.g. those using an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. Body composition parameters were assessed as available for the different models of calibrated bio-impedance scales. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented. Visceral fat levels were measured by Omron device. Levels ranged from 1 - 30 and are relative (not absolute) values. The Omron scale values are: 0 - 9 (normal), 10 - 14 (high) and 15 - 30 (very high). Visceral fat area ( 0 - approx. 300cm^2, 1 inch = 2.54 cm) distribution with 30 levels.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 12, Week 36

  6. Change From Baseline in Body Composition Assessed by Bio-impedance (Lean Body Mass) at Weeks 12 and 36

    Body composition was measured in all patients using bio-impedance, except in patients where it was contra-indicated, e.g. those using an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. Body composition parameters were assessed as available for the different models of calibrated bio-impedance scales. Pre-planned statistical analysis was not performed for this secondary endpoint due to early study termination. Only descriptive statistics are presented

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LIK066 and Empagliflozin in people with Diabetes Mellitus and Heart Failure, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 106 sites in 24 countries.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 106 sites in United States, Czechia, Germany, Canada, Belgium and 19 more countries. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 28 Aug 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 N-terminal Pro B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) at Week 12 (time frame: Baseline, Week 12). 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 28 Aug 2019.
