Nippon Ultra-Rapid Insulin and Diabetic Complication Evaluation-Study (NICE-Study)

January 7, 2008 updated by: Osaka Saiseikai Nakatsu Hospital

To Investigate Whether the Postprandial Blood Sugar Level as Achieved Using Ultrarapid-Acting Type Insulin Could Prevent Great Vessel Disorder in Japanese Type 2 Diabetic Patients.

For the purpose of comparing efficacy of intensive therapy between 1) ultrarapid-acting type insulin (insulin aspart) and 2) conventional rapid-acting type insulin (R), a Multicenter Open Label Randomized Controlled Trial was planned in Japan using the occurrence of cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes, a high risk factor, as an index.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

A survey shows that the most frequently observed direct cause of death in diabetic patients is cardiovascular disorder. However, investigations and surveys such as DCCT, UKPDS and KUMAMOTO-study, etc. clarified that strict control of blood sugar level prevented development and progress of diabetic microangiopathy, but could not show a significant effect on great vessel disorder. Recently, the DECODA-study, DECODE-study and Honolulu-study have demonstrated that postprandial high blood sugar is involved in great vessel disorder. Therefore, possible prevention of great vessel disorder in diabetic patients is suggested by improving the postprandial blood sugar level as achieved using ultrarapid-acting type insulin, which has become available recently. Even with results in Europe and the US obtained, the life-style and incidence of complications in Japanese people are different, and there are many points that remain uncertain with respect to the direct application of foreign results to Japanese people. Therefore, in Japan also, it is necessary to conduct a large-scale clinical study and to establish high-level evidence using mainly Japanese people through hospitals having many patients.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

20 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Patients with type 2 diabetes based on the diagnostic standard of the Japanese Diabetes Society/American Diabetes Association. No specific restriction on the current treatment. Patients having switched treatment are also accepted.

  10. Pregnant or possibly pregnant patients
  11. Other patients judged inappropriate for the study by the investigators (patients presenting difficulty in frequently receiving rapid-acting type insulin or ultrarapid-acting type insulin therapy, including patients' compliance with treatment)

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Intensified insulin therapy with human regular insulin

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Cardiovascular events 1)Sudden death 2)New development or recurrence of apoplexy or TIA 3)New development or recurrence of AMI or and angina pectoris 4)Newly developed ASO, amputation of leg due to ASO
Time Frame: five years
five years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
1)Total mortality 2)Changes in the mean IMT of common carotid arteries 3)Changes in the pulse wave velocity (PWV) (rt & 1t baPWV), ABI
Time Frame: five years
five years
