Trial Outcomes & Findings for Risk of Nocturnal Hypoglycemia and Arrhythmias With Sitagliptin Versus Glimepiride in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (NCT NCT02373865)

NCT ID: NCT02373865

Last Updated: 2019-02-27

Results Overview

measurement of hypoglycemic episodes including event duration at baseline and EOT after 12 weeks of treatment and measurement of time spent below critical values for hypoglycemic episodes are the primary objectives of this study. We will calculate overall episodes/time (5 days) and nocturnal episodes.

Participant Flow

In the time period between the start of the clinical trial (march 2015 (approval of German competent authority) and the premature termination (Jan 2017) only 4 patients of originally planned 68 patients could be recruited. Recruitment period started at 09.11.2015 when first patient was enrolled into study.

Measure
Arm A
Patients receiving Sitagliptin 100 mg+ Glimepiride-placebo (adapted dosage) Sitagliptin: Sitagliptin will be given in a daily dosage of 100 mg Glimepiride-Placebo: Glimepiride-Placebo will be given additional to Sitagliptin (blinded). It will be given in a starting daily dosage of 1 mg which will be adapted up to 6 mg
Arm B
Glimepiride (adapted dosage) + Sitagliptin 100 mg Placebo Glimepiride: Glimepiride will be given in a starting daily dosage of 1 mg which will be adapted up to 6 mg Sitagliptin-Placebo: Sitagliptin-Placebo will be given additional to Glimepiride (blinded). It will be given in a daily dosage of 100 mg

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks (at baseline and at EOT)

Population: Due to an impeded recruitment of patients the study was terminated. Between start (March 2015) and premature termination (Jan 2017) only 4 patients could be recruited. The reason for "0" Participants Analyzed provided in the Analysis Population Description is intended to report that data were not reported due to the termination of the study.
