Effect of Detemir and Sitagliptin on Blood Glucose Control in Type 2 Diabetes

Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]

Purpose This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. This trial aims for comparison of the effect on the glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes of basal insulin analogue with one oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) versus oral anti-diabetic drug alone.

Brief Summary
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. This trial aims for comparison of
the effect on the glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes of basal insulin
analogue with one oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) versus oral anti-diabetic drug alone.
Detailed DescriptionNot Provided
Study TypeInterventional
Study PhasePhase 3
Study DesignAllocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Condition
  • Diabetes
  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
InterventionDrug: insulin detemir
The detemir insulin dose is injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily in the evening and will be titrated (individually adjusted) weekly throughout the trial.
Drug: sitagliptin
The sitagliptin dose is 100 mg/ day and should be kept stable throughout the trial. Frequency of sitagliptin is once daily.
Drug: metformin
Metformin treatment with at least 1000 mg/ day. Dose and dosing frequency should remain unchanged throughout the trial.
Drug: sulphonylurea
Sulphonylurea (SU) dose and dosing frequency should initially remain unchanged. In case of hypoglycaemia SU dose may be reduced at the discretion of the investigator.
Study Arm (s)
  • Experimental: Comb
    Combination therapy of insulin detemir once daily plus sitagliptin added to subject's own pre-trial metformin treatment
  • Active Comparator: Sita
    Monotherapy of sitagliptin once daily added to subject's own pre-trial metformin and/or sulphonylurea (SU) treatment
