- Conditions

- JPRN-UMIN000022531
- Lead Sponsor
- Hokkaido University Hospital
- Brief Summary
HbA1c was not significantly different between the two groups (SU +0.02% vs Repa -0.07%), while greater improvements in the glycated albumin (GA) and GA to HbA1c ratio (GA/HbA1c) were observed in the Repa group without increasing hypoglycemia. When the Repa group was subdivided according to whether GA improved, the SU dose before switching to repaglinide was significantly smaller and the HOMA-beta was significantly higher in the GA improvement subgroup.
