    A Study to Characterize Regimens of Basal Insulin Intensified With Either Symlin® or Rapid Acting Insulin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

    NCT00467649

    May 2007 to Apr 2008

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

This will be a randomized, open label, parallel group, multicenter study. There will be two phases in the study. Phase 1 (Baseline to Week 24) will compare the efficacy and safety of regimens of basal insulin intensified with either Symlin or rapid acting insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes who have either been on a prior regimen of insulin for less than 6 months and were taking less than 50 U total of insulin per day OR are candidates for the initiation of insulin therapy. The purpose of Phase 2 (Week 24 to Week 36) is to explore further intensification of diabetes regimens in patients failing to achieve HbA1c \<=6.5% at Week 24.

Interventions

  • pramlintide acetate (Symlin)Drug
  • rapid acting insulin (Humalog® [insulin lispro], Novolog® [insulin aspart], or Apidra® [insulin glulisine])Drug
  • basal insulin (Lantus® [insulin glargine], or Levemir® [insulin detemir])Drug

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. The Percentage of Patients Achieving HbA1c <=7% at Week 24 With no Gain in Body Weight From Baseline and no Incidence of Severe Hypoglycemia

    Time frame · 24 Weeks

    Registry description

    A severe hypoglycemia is defined as an event during which the patient required the assistance of another individual (including aid in ingestion of oral carbohydrate); and/or required the administration of glucagon injection, intravenous glucose, or other medical intervention.

  8. Fasting Serum Lipids Change From Baseline to Week 24

    Time frame · Baseline, week 24

  9. Phase 2: Change in HbA1c at Week 36

    Time frame · Phase 1 Baseline, Phase 2 Baseline at Week 24, Week 36

    Registry description

    Two changes are calculated, the first by subtracting Week 36 value from the Phase 1 Baseline value (total change over 36 weeks), the second by subtracting the Week 36 value from the Phase 2 Baseline value (change from week 24 to week 36 only).

  10. Phase 2: Change in Body Weight at Week 36

    Time frame · Phase 1 Baseline, Phase 2 Baseline at Week 24, Week 36

    Registry description

    Two changes are calculated, the first by subtracting Week 36 value from the Phase 1 Baseline value (total change over 36 weeks), the second by subtracting the Week 36 value from the Phase 2 Baseline value (change from week 24 to week 36 only).
