A Study to Evaluate Time in Range in Type 2 Diabetics Using Afrezza® Plus Basal Insulin Compared to Multiple Daily Injections

Phase 4
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Insulin
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04125082
Lead Sponsor
Diabetes and Glandular Disease Clinic
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to collect CGM, A1c and Quality of Life data in subjects with Type 2 diabetes before and after transitioning from Multiple Daily Injections to Basal plus Bolus with Afrezza® inhaled insulin. The primary objective is to evaluate the percentage of time spent in goal range without significant hypoglycemia. Additional objectives include evaluation of A1c and Quality of Life data. The expected outcomes are improvement of time in range, no change or improvement in A1c and favorable Quality of Life data

GroupInterventionDescription
Type 2 DiabeticsAfrezza Inhalant ProductParticipants will be titrated from usual pre-meal insulin plus basal to Afrezza® inhaled insulin plus basal, and will continue on treatment for 14 weeks. Participants will attend study visits at Day 0, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12 and 16, where insulin titration may be performed based on CGM readings. Participants will receive instruction in carbohydrate counting and corrective insulin dose adjustments. Participants will wear CMG throughout the study. At final study visit, CGM system will be collected. A1c, FEV1 and Quality of Life Questionnaires will be collected. Pregnancy test will be collected for all females of child-bearing potential. Participants will be transitioned back to Multiple Daily Injections plus basal or may choose to continue on commercial Afrezza® inhaled insulin plus basal
