Condition(s) targeted: Diabetes Mellitus

Intervention: Lantus (insulin glargine [rDNA origin] injection) (Drug); Metformin (Drug); Glyburide (Drug); Thiazolidinedione (Drug)

Phase: Phase 3

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Sanofi

Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s):
Doug Green, Study Director, Affiliation: Sanofi

Summary

The purposes of the study is to determine whether blood sugar control is different between Lantus and a third oral anti-diabetic agent when added to patients who fail a thiazolidinedione and sulfonylurea or metformin combination.

Clinical Details

Official title: Substituting Lantus®(Insulin Glargine[rDNAorigin]Inj) for a Thiazolidinedione vs. a 3rd Oral Agent as add-on Therapy in Patients Failing a Thiazolidinedione & Sulfonylurea or Metformin Combination

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: To determine the difference in glycemic control as measured by HbA1C between substituting the TZD with insulin glargine and adding a third oral agent in patients who fail a TZD/sulfonylurea or TZD/metformin combination therapy

Secondary outcome:

Occurrence of hypoglycemia

Change in fasting plasma glucose

Percentage of patients achieving HbA1C less than or equal to 7%

Time to glycemic control

Change in body weight

Change in serum lipid profile
