Trial Outcomes & Findings for GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Lixisenatide in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes for Glycemic Control and Safety Evaluation in Monotherapy (NCT NCT00688701)

NCT ID: NCT00688701

Last Updated: 2016-12-12

Results Overview

Absolute change = HbA1c value at Week 12 minus HbA1c value at baseline. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 61 centers (68 were initiated) in 12 countries between May 14, 2008 and December 14, 2009.

A total of 795 patients were screened of which 434 (54.6%) were screen failures; main reason for screen failure was glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) values being out of the defined protocol range (greater than or equal to 7% and less than or equal to 10%). A total of 361 patients were randomized.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 12

Population: mITT population:all randomized patients who received at least 1 dose;had baseline,at least 1 post-baseline efficacy assessment, irrespective of compliance with study protocol/procedures. Last observation carried forward used. Number of patients analyzed=patients with baseline and at least 1 post-baseline HbA1c assessment during on-treatment period.

Absolute change = HbA1c value at Week 12 minus HbA1c value at baseline. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 12

Population: Subgroup for standardized meal test. Missing data was imputed using last observation carried forward (LOCF). Here, number of patients analyzed = patients with baseline and at least 1 post-baseline 2-hour PPG assessment during on-treatment period.

The 2-hour PPG test measured blood glucose 2 hours after eating a standardized meal (performed in selected sites). Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to the last dosing day of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Threshold values for fasting SMPG/FPG: from baseline to Week 8: \>270 milligram/deciliter (mg/dL) (15 mmol/L) and from Week 8 to Week 12: \>240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L).

Timeframe: First dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose administration

Population: Safety population included all randomized patients who were exposed to at least 1 dose of study drug, regardless of the amount of treatment administered.

Symptomatic hypoglycemia was an event with clinical symptoms that were considered to result from a hypoglycemic episode with an accompanying plasma glucose less than 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or associated with prompt recovery after oral carbohydrate, intravenous glucose, or glucagon administration if no plasma glucose measurement was available. Severe symptomatic hypoglycemia was symptomatic hypoglycemia event in which the patient required the assistance of another person and was associated with either a plasma glucose level below 36 mg/dL (2.0 mmol/L) or prompt recovery after oral carbohydrate, intravenous glucose, or glucagon administration, if no plasma glucose measurement was available.
