Registry summary

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

The purpose of this study is to try and achieve similar glycemic control in general non-Intensive Care Unit (non-ICU) patients with Type 2 Diabetes with exenatide alone or in combination with basal insulin as compared to treatment with basal bolus insulin alone. The association between hyperglycemia and poor clinical outcomes in patients with diabetes is well established. Previous studies have shown that basal bolus insulin regimens improve glycemic control and reduce the rate of hospital complications compared to sliding scale regular insulin (SSRI) therapy, but has a significant risk of hypoglycemia. The investigators will compare the efficacy and safety of exenatide alone or in combination with basal insulin to control high blood glucose levels resulting in a lower risk of hypoglycemia.

Arms5

  • Active comparator

    Exenatide inpatient

    Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive exenatide (Byetta®) twice daily. Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels \> 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.

  • Active comparator

    Exenatide plus glargine insulin inpatient

    Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive exenatide twice daily and glargine once daily. Glargine insulin will be given once daily at the same time. Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels \> 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.

  • Active comparator

    Basal bolus regimen inpatient

    Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive the Basal Bolus Regimen with Glargine and Rapid-Acting Insulin Analogs. Patients treated with insulin previously will receive 80% of total home daily insulin dose as the basal bolus. Half of the total daily dose will be given as glargine and half as rapid-acting insulin analogs. Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels \> 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.

  • Active comparator

    Exenatide outpatient

    Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive exenatide (Byetta®) twice daily. Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels \> 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.
