About this study

Official title: Basal-bolus Insulin Therapy With Insulin Degludec and Insulin Aspart Versus Standard Therapy for the Inpatient Management of Type 2 Diabetes: the IDA2 Study

Hyperglycemia during admission is associated with increased rate of complications and longer hospital stays, thus insulin treatment is recommended for all diabetes patients with hyperglycemia. Inpatient studies of non-critically ill patients show better glycemic control with the use of basal-bolus insulin therapy compared to sliding scale insulin therapy, but increased rates of hypoglycemia. The investigators hypothesize that basal-bolus insulin therapy with a new ultra-long-action basal insulin can treat hyperglycemia more efficiently than sliding scale insulin, with few episodes of hypoglycemia.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the efficacy and safety of basal-bolus insulin therapy using the insulin analogue, insulin degludec once daily and insulin aspart before meals versus standard therapy with sliding scale insulin in non-critical ill hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes.

The design of the trial is an open, randomized controlled trial with two parallel arms (treatment arm and control arm). Randomization is 1:1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in mean daily plasma glucose between the two groups

    Difference in mean daily plasma glucose between the two groups, calculated by using the four daily pre-meal and bedside PG values per patient.

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Mean number and rates of hypoglycemic events (PG ≤ 3.9 mmol/L)

    Based on bedside PG measures and on CGM data

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  2. Time spent in glycemic range

    Based on bedside PG measures and on CGM data

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  3. Time spent in hyperglycemic range

    Based on bedside PG measures and on CGM data

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  4. Length of hospital stay

    Mean duration of hospital stay

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  5. Difference in insulin dose between groups

    Calculated as mean insulin dose during admission

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  6. Number of hospital acquired infections during admission

    Data from hospital record

    Measured: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days

  7. Number of post-discharge infections or re-admissions 1 month after discharge

    Data collected on follow-up 1 month after discharge

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin Degludec 100 UNT/ML [Tresiba] in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Merete Bechmann Christensen at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 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 Denmark. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Merete B Christensen, MD (23811264, merete.bechmann.christensen.01@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference in mean daily plasma glucose between the two groups (time frame: Duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 days). 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 9 Aug 2017.
