INSULIN THERAPY DE-INTENSIFICATION WITH iGlarLixi
A Phase 4 study testing IGlarLixi and MDI - Multiple dose insulin injection in people with Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Insulin, run by Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine at 1 site in Czechia.
Trial summary
Intensive insulin therapy using multiple daily injections (MDI) constitutes the most intense type of regimen in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Although highly effective in lowering blood glucose, it can also increase the risk of hypoglycemia, promote weight gain and cause significant treatment burden for the… Read more about this study

About this study
Intensive insulin therapy using multiple daily injections (MDI) constitutes the most intense type of regimen in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Although highly effective in lowering blood glucose, it can also increase the risk of hypoglycemia, promote weight gain and cause significant treatment burden for the patients. As demonstrated by a number of clinical studies, overtreatment is a common and generally unrecognized problem in patients with T2D; nevertheless, medication de-escalation is still infrequent in everyday clinical practice. IGlarLixi is a once-daily fixed-ratio combination (FRC) of a basal insulin and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), which can offer similar efficacy in glucose control with lower rates of hypoglycemia and smaller weight gain that basal insulin regimens. The aim of our randomised, controlled study is to examine prospectively the safety and efficacy of de-escalating MDI regimens to iGlarLixi in T2D adult patients.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Intensive insulin therapy using multiple daily injections (MDI) constitutes the most intense type of regimen in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Although highly effective in lowering blood glucose, it can also increase the risk of hypoglycemia, promote weight gain and cause significant treatment burden for the patients. As demonstrated by a number of clinical studies, overtreatment is a common and generally unrecognized problem in patients with T2D; nevertheless, medication de-escalation is still infrequent in everyday clinical practice. IGlarLixi is a once-daily fixed-ratio combination (FRC) of a basal insulin and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), which can offer similar efficacy in glucose control with lower rates of hypoglycemia and smaller weight gain that basal insulin regimens. The aim of our randomised, controlled study is to examine prospectively the safety and efficacy of de-escalating MDI regimens to iGlarLixi in T2D adult patients.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing IGlarLixi and MDI - Multiple dose insulin injection in people with Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Insulin, run by Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine at 1 site in Czechia.
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 8 inclusion and 28 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 22 Jul 2021. 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 Czechia. 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 Martin Haluzik, MD, DSc (+420 261 36 ext. 4107, halm@ikem.cz), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
HbA1C (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT04945070, 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 Jul 2021.
