Trial information

A Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Effect on Glycemic Control of Taspoglutide Versus Insulin Glargine in Insulin Naive Type 2 Diabetic Patients Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Plus Sulphonylurea.

Status: Recruiting

Protocol number: BC20965

Sponsor: Hoffmann-La Roche

Company division: Pharmaceutical

Official Scientific Title: A multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled study to compare the safety, tolerability and effect on glycemic control of taspoglutide versus insulin glargine in insulin-naïve type 2 diabetic patients inadequately controlled with metformin and sulphonylurea combination therapy

Brief summary: This 3-arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to insulin glargine in patients with insulin-naive type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin and sulphonylurea combination therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10 mg once weekly, or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly) or insulin glargine (starting dose 10 IU/day) in a ratio of 1:1:1 in addition to continued prestudy metformin treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1 year, and the target sample size if 500+ individuals. Target sample size is 990.

Study phase: III

Study type: Interventional; Treatment; Randomized; Open Label; Active; Parallel; Safety/Efficacy study

Condition: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Intervention type: Drug

Intervention name: taspoglutide

Primary outcome: 1. Absolute change from baseline in HbA1c Time frame: 24 weeks

Key secondary outcomes: 1. Change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose; change from baseline in body weight; responder rates for HbA1c (target <=7.0%, <=6.5%); incidence of hypoglycemia; change from baseline in lipid profile. Time frame: 24 weeks 2. Relative change in glucose, insulin, C-peptide and glucagon during a meal tolerance test. Time frame: 24 weeks 3. Safety: Adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, clinical laboratory tests, ECG and anti-taspoglutide antibodies Time frame: Throughout study
