Effects of Nasulin Versus Placebo on Blood Glucose Control in Patient Volunteers With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Interventions
Drug: Nasulin
Other: Placebo for Nasulin
Registration Number
NCT00850096
Lead Sponsor
CPEX Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is:

* To assess the efficacy of Nasulin vs. placebo as indicated by time spent in euglycemia, assessed by continuous glucose monitoring data and serum fructosamine levels in patient volunteers with Type 2 Diabetes.

* To asses the safety and tolerability of Nauslin at 50 IU and 100IU doses in patient volunteers with Type 2 Diabetes

Detailed Description

This proof of concept trial has a randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled design with a 4-week single-blind placebo and diet run-in period. Given a ratio of 1:1, patient volunteers will be randomized into one of two parallel treatment arms, Nasulin in a combination with insulin glargine or placebo in combination with insulin glargine. The randomization period will be 6 weeks in length. The total length of individual patient volunteer participation, including screening and follow-up will be approximately 13-14 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)Baseline and 5-6 weeks

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data from patients receiving either Nasulin or placebo were collected and compared at baseline and the last two weeks of the study, and changes (week 5-6 minus baseline) in the mean percentage of time spend in euglycemia (70 to 180 mg/dl blood glucose) (MPTEU) were assessed from baseline Week 0 to Week 5-6.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Glycemic Control5-6 weeks

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data from patients at the last weeks of study (week 5-6) were averaged for assessment of glycemic control under the treatment of either Nasulin or placebo.
