Trial Outcomes & Findings for Avexitide Safety and Efficacy to Treat Acquired Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia (NCT NCT04652479)

NCT ID: NCT04652479

Last Updated: 2023-06-09

Results Overview

Level 2 hypoglycemia events (ADA, \<54 mg/dL) as measured by CGM and defined as the number of events captured by CGM with glucose measures \<54 mg/dL during diurnal hours (8am-10pm) within the run-in period and respective treatment period; for each period data were collected for 14 days, then divided by number of days, then normalized to duration of 14 days.

Participant Flow

25 participants entered a 14-day run-in (screening) period during which they wore the continuous glucose monitor (CGM). 17 participants who had at least 2 hypoglycemic events were randomized to a study arm.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Run-in period (14 days), treatment period 1 (14 days), and treatment period 2 (14 days)

Population: Participants with no major protocol deviations who were allocated to treatment.

Level 2 hypoglycemia events (ADA, \<54 mg/dL) as measured by CGM and defined as the number of events captured by CGM with glucose measures \<54 mg/dL during diurnal hours (8am-10pm) within the run-in period and respective treatment period; for each period data were collected for 14 days, then divided by number of days, then normalized to duration of 14 days.

Population: Participants with no major protocol deviations who were allocated to treatment.

Severe events during each treatment period characterized by altered mental and/or physical functioning that requires assistance from another person for recovery; for each period data were collected for 14 days, then divided by number of days, then normalized to duration of 14 days. This would apply regardless of whether a patient actually received external assistance.
