Comparison of Insulin Glargine/Insulin Glulisine Regimen to Insulin Aspart/Insulin Aspart Protamine 30/70 in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients (T2DM) (B to B)

July 5, 2013 updated by: Sanofi

Comparison of a Basal Plus (Insulin Glargine/Insulin Glulisine) Regimen to Biphasic Insulin (InsulinAspart/Insulin Aspart Protamine 30/70) in T2DM Patients Who Require Insulin Intensification After Basal Insulin Optimization.

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate the non-inferiority of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) control at six months between the basal plus one and the biphasic insulin regimen.

Secondary Objective:

To demonstrate favorable outcome for basal plus over biphasic insulin when it comes to comparing when both hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) target goal achievement and non-hypoglycemic event is taken into account.

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  1. Sub-optimally controlled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients treated with insulin glargine for a minimum of 3 months:

    • Sub-optimal: HbA1c level >7% and fasting blood glucose <130mg/dL
  2. Male or Female ≥18 years old
  3. Body Mass Index (BMI) <40
  4. 10% ≥HbA1c ≥7%
  5. If taking Oral anti-diabetics (OADs), must be on stable dose for at least 1 months
  6. Patients willing to sign data release consent form

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Diabetes other than T2DM
  2. Enrolled in other clinical trials
  3. Previous treatment with an insulin other than insulin glargine
  4. Treatment with Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists or with Di Peptidyl Peptidase 4 (DPP-IV) inhibitors
  5. Pregnant or lactating women
  6. Contraindicated to Lantus (insulin glargine) / Apidra (insulin glulisine) / Novomix 30 (insulin aspart)
  7. Treatment with systemic corticoid steroids within the last 3 months prior to study enter
  8. Treatment with any investigational product within the last 3 months prior to study entry
