A Study of the Effect of Taspoglutide on Gastric Emptying in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

November 1, 2016 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Investigate the Effect of Taspoglutide on Gastric Emptying Measured by a Paracetamol Test After Single Dose and After Multiple Doses in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

This 3 arm, placebo-controlled study will investigate the effect of Taspoglutide on gastric emptying in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be randomized into one of 3 groups to receive a)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 12 weeks b)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 8 weeks or c) placebo sc weekly for 12 weeks, with all injections administered in the abdomen.Gastric emptying will be assessed by a paracetamol test at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
