December 10, 2008 updated by: Nagaoka Red Cross Hospital

Randomized，Open-Label，2-Period，Crossover Comparison of Randomized，Open-Label，2-Period，Crossover Comparison of Novo Rapid 30 Mix Injection FlexPen® and Humalog 25 Mix Injection KwikPen® in Adult Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to investigate patient's usability, preference and blood glucose control for the new prefilled disposable insulin lispro mixture (Humalog Mix 25 injection KwikPen®). For that purpose, randomized open-label, 2-period direct comparative crossover study is planned in comparison with insulin aspart mixture (Novo Rapid 30 Mix injection FlexPen®).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  • Concomitant drugs The treatment with other insulin preparation is prohibited during the study period. As to the drugs except insulin that have been used for the treatment of diabetes and its complication since the time before the study, the content should not be changed during the study in principle unless the complication is cured. If any new complication occurs during the study period, an appropriate treatment is given by the judgment of investigator.

  • Compliance with treatment method The investigator gives sufficient explanation on the following contents to the patient.

    • To inject the prescribed volume of insulin at the prescribed time.
    • To observe the appointed date for the next visit.

  • Termination of assessment The study is discontinued if any of the following events occurs after the start of study.

    • Important protocol violation
    • When continued treatment is judged difficult due to the onset of an adverse event
    • Death
    • When the follow-up of patient becomes impossible
    • Other than the above, when the investigator judges it necessary to discontinue the study

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Other: usability and preference

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
HbA1c change rate from the start to 12 and 24 weeks are investigated and compared. Furthermore, using a questionnaire sheet "IDSQ-J" related to the insulin infusion device, the patient's usability and satisfaction with KwikPen® or FlexPen® are performed.
Time Frame: 24 weeks
24 weeks

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
As the secondary endpoints, the incidence of hypoglycemia, changes in body weight (BMI) and blood pressure, and the dose of insulin are investigated and compared before and after the changeover.
Time Frame: 24 weeks
24 weeks
