About this study

This multicenter, randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Henagliflozin-Metformin Sustained-Release Tablets (I) versus Metformin Tablets in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 268 participants will be randomized (1:1) into two groups: the experimental group receiving Henagliflozin-Metformin Sustained-Release Tablets (I) (5mg/500mg, once daily) with lifestyle intervention, and the control group receiving Metformin Tablets (500mg, twice daily) with lifestyle intervention. The primary outcome is the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes include changes in fasting/postprandial blood glucose, body weight, metabolic parameters, diabetes remission rate, and safety assessments. This trial will provide evidence for early combination therapy in newly diagnosed T2DM patients.

Being tested
henagliflozin proline and metformin hydrochloride extended-release tablets (Ⅰ), Metformin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing henagliflozin proline and metformin hydrochloride extended-release tablets (Ⅰ) and Metformin in people with New-onset Type 2 Diabetes, run by Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Xiaohong Wu (+86-13815870351, drxhwu@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Type A1C(HbA1C) (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 12 Sep 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
