Clinical Trial of Efficacy and Safety of Subetta in the Combined Treatment of Patients With Type II Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 4

Completed

Conditions: Type II Diabetes Mellitus

Interventions: Drug: Subetta
Drug: Placebo

Registration Number: NCT01868646

Lead Sponsor: Materia Medica Holding

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is:

* to assess clinical efficacy of Subetta in the combined treatment of type II diabetes mellitus;

* to assess safety of Subetta in the combined treatment of type II diabetes mellitus.

Detailed Description: Patients with type II diabetes mellitus are included in the trial. It is concerned those patients, who by the time of the trial receive basal insulin with metformin or metformin and sulfonylurea derivatives and with lack of optimal glycemic control (HbA1c\>7.0%). For patients, which will be included in the trial (mainly middle aged patients without severe complications of diabetes), HbA1c\>7.0% is the marker showing that optimal individual goal of glycemic control is not achieved.

If a patient meets inclusion criteria and does not show exclusion criteria he/she is randomized in one of 2 groups: Group 1 - the group receiving standard type II diabetes mellitus therapy + Subetta at a dose of 1 tablet 4 times a day; Group 2 - the group receiving standard type II diabetes mellitus therapy + Placebo under the regimen used for Subetta. The invented names of the drugs containing basal insulin, metformin and sulfonylurea derivatives used as standard type II diabetes mellitus therapy, should be unchanged for each patient during the whole trial.

All patients will receive glucometers and the appropriate glucose test strips, so they could self monitor blood glucose and register this data in their diaries.

The trial duration is 38 weeks; the main stages of the trial are conducted during screening, then in 4 weeks (Visit 2), in 12 weeks (Visit 3), in 24 weeks (Visit 4) and in 36 weeks (Visit 5). In 1 week after randomization and the onset of the trial therapy and between the visits to the study site (on weeks 8±1, 18±1and 30±1) an investigator collects data on patient's health and complaints (phone visits) to decide whether it is necessary to arrange unplanned visit to the site.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Changes in the Mean Value of HbA1c	In 12, 24 and 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	The HbA1C test was performed using a method that is certified by the National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program (NGSP) (www.ngsp.org) and standardized or traceable to the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) reference assay.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose	In 4, 12, 24 and 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	Based on the data of biochemical analysis
Change in Average Daily Blood Glucose From a 7-point Patient Self-monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG)	During the whole study period (on weeks 4, 8, 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36 of the treatment) as compared to the baseline	A 7-point patient self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG): three measurements of blood glucose before the meal; three measurements of postprandial blood glucose (1-2 h after the start of the meal) and one measurement at 3:00 a.m.
Mean Value of C-peptide	In 12, 24 and 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	Blood samples (for measurement of fasting plasma glucose, concentrations of plasma C-peptide, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides) are taken under standard conditions: after night break in food taking (at least 8 hours) and prior to administering of insulin morning dose (if patient receives intermediate insulin twice-daily), prior to any morning medicines intake (including the study drug, metformin, sulfonylurea derivatives, permitted concomitant therapy).
Changes in Lipids (Concentrations of Plasma Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol and Triglycerides)	In 12, 24 and 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	Blood samples (for measurement of fasting plasma glucose, concentrations of plasma total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides) are taken under standard conditions: after night break in food taking (at least 12 hours) and prior to administering of insulin morning dose (prandial), prior to any morning medicines intake (including the study drug and permitted concomitant therapy).
Changes in Dosage of Insulin (Basal Dose Insulin Measured in IU/Day)	In 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	Changes in basal insulin dose is based on the mean value of 3 consecutive measuring of level of fasting blood glucose. 1. If value of fasting blood glucose at 7:00 AM on January 21, 2012 - 4.2 mmol/L, at 7:30 AM on January 22, 2012- 5.0 mmol/L, at 7:00 AM on January 23, 2012 4.8 mmol/L, then the mean level of blood glucose =4.7 mmol/L (4.2 +5.0 +4.8 divided by 3). It is not recommended to change the dose. 2. If the mean value of fasting blood glucose is lower than 4.0 mmol/L and a patient shows unreasonable signs or symptoms of hypoglycemia, then dose of basal insulin should be reduced by 2 units. 3. If value of fasting blood glucose for 3 consecutive days was ≥7 mmol/L, then dose of basal insulin should be increased by 2 units and more (depending on individual values). Based on the same values investigator can change dose of per oral blood sugar-lowering drugs.
Changes in Dosage of Insulin (Basal Dose Insulin Measured in IU/ kg of Body Weight)	In 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline	Changes in basal insulin dose is based on the mean value of 3 consecutive measuring of level of fasting blood glucose. If value of fasting blood glucose at 7:00 AM on January 21, 2012 - 4.2 mmol/L, at 7:30 AM on January 22, 2012- 5.0 mmol/L, at 7:00 AM on January 23, 2012 4.8 mmol/L, then the mean level of blood glucose =4.7 mmol/L (4.2 +5.0 +4.8 divided by 3). It is not recommended to change the dose. If the mean value of fasting blood glucose is lower than 4.0 mmol/L and a patient shows unreasonable signs or symptoms of hypoglycemia, then dose of basal insulin should be reduced by 2 units. If value of fasting blood glucose for 3 consecutive days was ≥7 mmol/L, then dose of basal insulin should be increased by 2 units and more (depending on individual values). Based on the same values investigator can change dose of per oral blood sugar-lowering drugs.
Percentage of Patients With Changed Daily Dose of Per Oral Blood Sugar- Lowering Drugs	In 36 weeks of the treatment
Changes in the Mean Absolute Value of Body Weight (kg)	In 36 weeks of the treatment as compared to the baseline
Changes in the Mean Absolute Value of Body Mass Index (BMI) (kg/m^2)	baseline and 36 weeks of the treatment
Satisfaction of Diabetes Treatment Based on Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire Data	In 36 weeks of the treatment	The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire allows to assess the degree of satisfaction with treatment for diabetes and its complications - retinopathy and nephropathy, how patients' satisfaction and perceived hyper- and hypoglycemia have changed compared to the initial period (before the treatment). The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire contains six items scored on 7-point scales from +3 (equals "very satisfied") to -3 (equals "very dissatisfied"), with 0 (equals "no change"). These are summed to produce a total Treatment Satisfaction score. Two questions concerning "Perceived Hyperglycaemia" and "Perceived Hypoglycaemia" respectively, are calculated separately. According to these two items, low scores represent good perceived blood glucose control (+3 means "most of the time" of Hyperglycaemia or Hypoglycaemia whereas -3 means "none of the time" of Hyperglycaemia or Hypoglycaemia).
