September 21, 2016 updated by: Takeda

Actos Tablets Special Drug Use Surveillance "Combined Use of Biguanides / Long-term Treatment"

To investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term treatment with pioglitazone (Actos tablets) in combination with biguanides (for 12 months after the start of pioglitazone tablets treatment) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

This is a special drug use surveillance with an observation period of 12 months designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of pioglitazone (Actos) in the routine clinical setting in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who responded inadequately to treatment with biguanides in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy (planned sample size, 1000).

The usual adult dosage is 15 to 30 mg of pioglitazone administered orally once daily before or after breakfast. Dose adjustment will be made according to gender, age, and symptoms with an upper limit of 45 mg.

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.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

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.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Reporting One or More Adverse Drug Reactions
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 months
Adverse drug reactions are defined as adverse events (AEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from the first dose of study drug to the last dose of study drug.
Baseline up to 12 months
Number of Participants Reporting One or More Serious Adverse Drug Reactions
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 months
Serious adverse drug reactions are defined as serious adverse events (SAEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
Baseline up to 12 months

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
Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)
Time Frame: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
The change in the value of glycosylated hemoglobin (the concentration of glucose bound to hemoglobin as a percent of the absolute maximum that can be bound) collected at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose
Time Frame: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
The change between the fasting blood glucose value collected at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
Change From Baseline in Body Weight
Time Frame: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
Change relative to baseline in participant's weight measured at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12).
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
Change From Baseline in Immunoreactive Insulin (IRI)
Time Frame: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
The change in the value of IRI (portion of insulin in blood measured by immunochemical methods for the hormone; presumed to represent the free [unbound] and biologically active fraction of total blood insulin) collected at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
Change From Baseline Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)
Time Frame: Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
The change between homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance collected at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months or final visit (last visit for a participant in the study, up to Month 12) relative to baseline. Homeostasis Model assessment of insulin resistance Measures insulin resistance, calculated by insulin times glucose, divided by a constant (22.5). A higher score indicates higher insulin resistance.
Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12 and final assessment (up to Month 12)
