Comparison on Efficacy and Safety of Three Inpatient Insulin Therapy in Type2 DM

July 17, 2018 updated by: Eman Said, Cairo University

Premix 70/30 Insulin Plus Supplemental Lunch Insulin in Comparison to Basal Plus Prandial Supplemental Scale and Sliding Scale Insulin in Hospitalized Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Purpose: To compare efficacy and safety of traditional sliding scale insulin (SSI) versus modified 70/30 insulin versus modified basal plus supplemental scale /bolus insulin regimens for glycemic control in hospitalized diabetic patients with diabetes.

Methods: In a prospective trial, patients with diabetes will be randomized to receive either traditional hospital SSI , or twice daily 70/30 insulin plus supplemental lunchtime insulin for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL or once every night glargine plus three times prandial glulisine for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL . 70/30 insulin and glargine will be started respectively at 0.4 and 0.2 U/kg/day for BG ≤ 200 mg/dL or 0.5 and 0.3 U/kg/day for BG above 200 mg/dL.

Study Overview

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
63

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 64 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

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

ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: glargine plus supplemental glulisine
Patients who will be recruited to be treated with glargine/glulisine, will received 50% of TDD as detailed demonstrated in Umpierrez et al., studies . as This includes administration of glargine (Lantus®) once every night plus glulisine (Apidra®) before each meal for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL. Glargine dose will be calculated as 0.2 U/kg/day for admission BG less than 200 mg/dL or 0.3 U/kg/day for BG exceeding 200 mg/dL. Glargine was given using Solostar Flex-Pen® once daily in the evening around 8:00 pm. Glulisine was given using the Solostar Flex-Pen® three times just before the meals for BG > 150 mg/dL according to hospital sliding scale. To avoid hypoglycemia, if for any reason, a subject missed a meal, the dose of glulisine will be held.
Drug: Glargine
Other Names:
  • lantus
Drug: glulisine
Other Names:
  • apidra
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: 70/30 insulin plus supplemental lunch insulin
Modified split-mixed insulin protocol adopted by Umpierrez et al., will be applied to patients treated with 70/30 insulin. Insulin dose will be started at 0.4 U/kg/day for admission BG less than 200 mg/dL or 0.5 U/kg/day for BG above 200 mg/dL. Two thirds of total daily dose (TDD)will be given before breakfast and 1/3 of TDD before dinner. Supplemental lunchtime regular insulin dose will given for BG > 150 mg/dL . Patients previously treated with 70/30 insulin before admission initially will receivethe same regimen as at in home.
Drug: regular insulin
Drug: 70/30 insulin
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Sliding Scale insulin (SSI)
For SSI group, regular insulin will be administered three times daily subcutaneously approximately 30 min before meal for BG > 150 mg/dL (or every 8 hours if a patient was not eating) according to hospital sliding scale table
Drug: 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
Mean Daily Blood Glucose (BG) Concentration During Their Hospital Stay.
Time Frame: during hospital stay which is expected to be average 3 weeks
during hospital stay which is expected to be average 3 weeks
Mean BG After First Day of Hospitalization
Time Frame: after first day of hospitalization
after first day of hospitalization

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Patients Developed Hypoglycemic Events
Time Frame: during hospital stay which is expected to be average 3 weeks
Hypoglycemic episodes are classified as major (BG ≤ 40 mg/dL or associated with impaired mental status or loss of consciousness), or minor (BG between 40 and 59 mg/dL) events.
during hospital stay which is expected to be average 3 weeks
Number of Patients Developed Episodes of Severe Hyperglycemia

Hyperglycemic events are defined as BG > 300 mg/dL.
during hospital stay which is expected to be average 3 weeks
Mortality Rate
