Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Characterize Regimens of Basal Insulin Intensified With Either Symlin® or Rapid Acting Insulin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (NCT NCT00467649)

NCT ID: NCT00467649

Last Updated: 2015-04-14

Results Overview

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.

Measure
Group A (Phase 1 SYMLIN)
SYMLIN treatment (120 mcg prior to major meals) was initiated on Day 1. Basal insulin was titrated throughout the study
Group B (Phase 1 RA Insulin)
Rapid acting insulin (RA Insulin: variable dosing, titrated to optimize postprandial glucose control) was initiated at Week 4. Basal insulin was titrated throughout the study
Group C (Phase 2 SYMLIN)
Patients from Group A, who achieved HbA1c goal at Week 24, continued Phase 1 treatment during Phase 2
Group D (Phase 2 SYMLIN+RA)
Patients from Group A, who did not achieve HbA1c goal at Week 24, continued Phase 1 treatment and initiated RA insulin during Phase 2
Group E (Phase 2 RA Insulin)
Patients from Group B, who achieved HbA1c goal at Week 24, continued Phase 1 treatment during Phase 2
Group F (Phase 2 RA Insulin + SYMLIN)
Patients from Group B, who did not achieve HbA1c goal at Week 24, continued Phase 1 treatment and initiated SYMLIN during Phase 2

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 Weeks

Population: Phase 1 Intent-to-Treat LOCF. LOCF: If a treated patient has missing result value at week 24, then last observed value before week 24 and after baseline is carried forward to impute the week 24 value.

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.

Timeframe: 36 weeks

MILD: patient reported symptoms consistent with hypoglycemia that may or may not have been documented by glucose monitoring at the time of symptoms. Symptoms did not greatly interrupt or interfere with the patients daily activities. Symptoms dissipated spontaneously or upon eating. MODERATE: Patient reported symptoms consistent with hypoglycemia that may or may not have been documented by glucose monitoring at the time of symptoms. Symptoms interrupted or interfered with the patients daily activities and required immediate self treatment (e.g. carbohydrate ingestion). SEVERE: 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.
