About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Randomized, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ORMD-0801 in T2DM Subjects With Inadequate Glycemic Control on Diet Control Only or on Diet Control and Metformin Monotherapy.

This double-masked placebo-controlled study will include approximately 450 subjects with inadequately controlled T2DM on diet control alone or on diet control and metformin monotherapy. Subjects will undergo an initial 21-day Screening Period, followed by a 26-week Double-Blind Treatment Period and a Double-Blind 26-week Treatment Extension Period.

Read the detailed description

Screening Period The investigator will review the aim of the study, study procedures, potential risks, and benefits with the volunteers. These subjects will then sign a written informed consent during Screening Visit 1. They will be instructed to return to the clinic 10 days prior to randomization (Visit 1) for Screening Visit 2. At this visit, a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor will be placed with appropriate instructions by the study team for a 10-day blinded CGM data collection by the site. Subjects will then return to the clinic after 10 days (± 1-day) for removal of the CGM sensor. The subjects will be randomized to one of the three study treatment arms.

26-Week Double-Masked Treatment Period After the Screening Period, subjects will be randomized to 26 weeks of the Double-Blind Treatment Period consisting of ORMD-0801 8 mg (1 x 8 mg capsule), or placebo in a 1:1 randomized fashion. Medication will be administered once daily at night prior to bedtime (between 8 PM to 12 Midnight and no sooner than 1 hour after dinner).

During the Double-Masked Treatment Period commencing at Week 0 (Visit 1, CGM removal), subjects will return to the clinic at the following intervals: Week 6 - Visit 2; Week 12 -Visit 3; Week 18 - Visit 4; Week 24 - Visit 5 (10 days prior to Week 26 for CGM application) and Week 26 - Visit 6 (CGM removal and end of Double-Blind Treatment Period visit).

The visit requiring CGM application will occur 10 days prior to the CGM removal visit within a ± 1-day window

26-Week Double-Masked Treatment Extension Period Following the completion of the Double-Blind Treatment Period, subjects will enter a 26-week Double-Blind Treatment Extension Period. Subjects will remain on the same treatment regimen and continue to receive the same medication for the duration of the Double-Blind Treatment Extension Period. The Extension Period treatment assignments will remain blinded for the duration of the study.

Visits will occur at the following intervals during the 26-Week Double-Masked Treatment Extension Period: Week 30 - (Visit 7); Week 40 - Visit 8; Week 50 - Visit 9 (10 days prior to Week 52 for CGM application); and Week 52 - Visit 10 (CGM removal and end of Double-Blind Treatment Extension Period visit).

The visit requiring CGM application will occur 10 days prior to the CGM removal visit within a ± 1-day window.

All subjects completing the trial will return to the clinic in 2 weeks ± 3 days for a Safety Follow-Up Visit. Subjects withdrawing prematurely from the trial, will have the early termination (ET) visit procedures completed. All patients will continue to be followed in accordance with ITT principles to avoid a loss to follow-up and missing data.

Model description
Approximately 450 US- and Europe-based adult male and female subjects with T2DM will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either ORMD-0801 8 mg QD (one 8 mg capsule, dosed at night), or placebo dosed QD (dosed at night). It is anticipated that 225 subjects will be randomized to each arm of the study to complete approximately 200 subjects in each arm.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ORMD-0801 in people with T2DM (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus), run by Oramed, Ltd. 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 16 inclusion and 34 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 9 Feb 2023. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 stopped early (reason given: The ORA-D-013-2 protocol was terminated based on the primary results analyzed at week 26 in the ORA-D-013-1 protocol.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Mean change in A1C (time frame: Baseline and Week 26). 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 Feb 2023.
