Effect of Dapagliflozin on Glycemic Variability

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02459353
Lead Sponsor
The Catholic University of Korea
Brief Summary

Dapagliflozin improves glycemic variability in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus when added to insulin therapy. The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of dapagliflozin on glucose variability compared to placebo after 12 weeks of treatment in type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycemic control on insulin.

Detailed Description

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 4 study to evaluate whether treatment with dapagliflozin add-on to insulin reduces glucose variability in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The study will recruit type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients with inadequate glucose control on insulin treatment with or without metformin or sulphonylurea. It is estimated that 90 type 2 diabetic patients will be enrolled. After randomization, a total 12 week treatment of dapagliflozin or matching placebo will be administered. Before and after treatment, tests for efficacy and safety outcomes will be performed.
