Clinical Trial Summary

Efficacy and Safety of Basal Insulin Glargine Combination with Exenatide bid vs Switching Premix Human Insulin to Aspart30 in T2DM with Inadequate Glycaemic Control on Premixed Human Insulin and Metformin: a Randomized, Open, Parallel trial.

Description:

This is a multicentre, open-label, randomized and parallel trial that will compare the efficacy and safety of basal insulin glargine combination with Exenatide bid vs. switching premix human insulin to aspart30 in type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycaemic control on premixed human insulin and metformin. Approximately 248 patients will be enrolled in the study from China and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the 2 treatment arms: once-daily insulin glargine + twice-daily exenatide + metformin; or twice-daily aspart 30 + metformin.

Study treatment will continue for 24 weeks. The primary efficacy measure is the change in HbA1c at 24 weeks. The study consists of 3 periods: a 1-week screening (period A), a 12-week run-in period (period B) and a 24-week treatment period (period C).
