A Study on the Effect of 2 Pen Devices on HbA1c

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
Interventions
Drug: Huminsulin Regular
Device: HumaPen Memoir
Device: HumaPen Luxura
Registration Number
NCT00985712
Lead Sponsor
Eli Lilly and Company
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that the HumaPen Memoir with memory function, when used over 24 weeks for prandial insulin injections achieves superior glycemic control, when compared to the conventional HumaPen Luxura without memory function.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at Week 24 EndpointBaseline, Week 24

HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin which is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least Squares (LS) Mean values were controlled for treatment, visit, treatment\*visit interaction, screening HbA1c (≤9% / \>9%), change of prandial insulin at baseline, and baseline HbA1c.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Achieving Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≤7.5% and ≤7.0% at Week 24 EndpointWeek 24
Score in Insulin Delivery System Questionnaire (IDSQ) - Willingness to Continue at Week 24 EndpointWeek 24

IDSQ is used to evaluate acceptance of study pen. Willingness to continue was assessed by a single question, rated from 1 to 5 (1=Definitely unwilling and 5=Definitely willing). Higher score indicates stronger desire to continue. Least Squares (LS) Mean values were controlled for treatment and baseline score.

30-Day Adjusted Rates of Self-Reported Hypoglycemic Episodes at Any Time From Baseline Through Week 24Baseline through Week 24

Hypoglycemic episode is defined as blood glucose measurement ≤3.9 millimoles/Liter (mmol/L; 70 milligrams/deciliter \[mg/dL\]). Adjusted rate = number of events in study period, divided by number of days in study period, then multiplied by 30.

30-Day Adjusted Rates of Self-Reported Hyperglycemic Episodes at Any Time From Baseline Through Week 24Baseline through Week 24

Hyperglycemic episode is defined as blood glucose measurement \>18 mmol/L (324 mg/dL). Adjusted rate = number of events in study period, divided by number of days in study period, then multiplied by 30.
