Clinical Trial on Type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
- Conditions
- Type 2 diabetes mellitus without complications,
- Registration Number
- CTRI/2023/01/049222
- Lead Sponsor
- Theon Pharma
- Brief Summary
Study Title is A phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study to compare the efficacy and safety of fixed dose combination tablets of Dapagliflozin 10 mg and Linagliptin 5 mg versus Trajenta 5 mg (Linagliptin 5 mg) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled on Metformin.
It will be a phase III, multicenter, randomized, double blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, active-controlled study clinical trial to test the safety and efficacy of fixed dose combination tablets of Dapagliflozin 10 mg and Linagliptin 5 mg in T2DM.
The study will be conducted in the hospital setup, with number of patients not less than 232, i.e. at least 116 in the Test arm and 116 in the Reference arm for a period of 16 weeks. The patients could be treated on outpatient [OP] basis or may be in need of in-patient admission [IP].
Total maximum duration of the clinical trial will be of 16 weeks for any patient who is enrolled. The trial could end prior to week 16 for an individual patient, in case patient voluntarily drops out.
In case of adverse event/ serious adverse event irrespective of whether it is due to study procedure or study drug and anytime within 16 weeks from the enrolment, the investigator could withdraw the patient and switch to appropriate medical management of the said AE/ SAE.
On day 0, patient/ patient’s legally acceptable representative [LAR] will be informed by the delegated staff of clinical trial site under supervision of investigator about the objectives and procedure and duration of this trial along with entire information about the study drugs along with possible adverse events as well as responsibilities of the patient throughout the trial. Sufficient time would be given to the patient for understanding the procedures of the trial and following his/ her voluntary informed consent, the Subject would be screened for participation in the trial.
There will be a screening period of 4 weeks including 2 weeks of run-in period, i.e. screening would be conducted within 4 weeks prior to actual enrolment in the trial.
During the run-in period, the patient would be advised to continue the anti-diabetic diet, which is part of standard care.
After completion of run-in period, the patient would be randomized to Test or Active-control treatment for the treatment period of 16 weeks.
Since the study is blinded, the patient, investigator or any study staff would not know the nature of the treatment [Test or Active-control] until end of the study or until after the code is broken in case of AE or SAE.
End-of-study [EOS] assessment would be performed at Week 16 or at the time of early discontinuation or withdrawal of the patient
