The efficacy of switching from sulfonyl urea to repaglinide on glycemic control in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes

Phase 4
Conditions
type 2 diabetes mellitus
Registration Number
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.
