GALLANT 7 Tesaglitazar Add-on to Sulphonylurea
Phase 3
Terminated
- Conditions
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Registration Number
- NCT00251940
- Lead Sponsor
- AstraZeneca
- Brief Summary
This is a 24-week randomized double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar (0.5 mg and 1 mg) given as add-on therapy to sulphonylurea in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on optimized sulphonylurea treatment and on diet/lifestyle advice during the titration and run-in period. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, 6 week placebo metformin titration period, 2-week single-blind run-in period, followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Absolute change from baseline to end of randomized treatment period in glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in the following variables from baseline to the end of the randomized treatment period: • The change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), insulin, proinsulin and C-peptide • Insulin sensitivity by assessment of change in the calculated variable homeostasis assessment model • Lipid parameters (triglyceride [TG], total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL C], non-HDL C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL C], apolipoproteins [Apo] A-I, Apo B, Apo CIII, free fatty acids, lipoprotein particle size and c • C-reactive protein, LDL C/HDL C ratio and Apo B/Apo A-I ratio • FPG, homeostasis assessment model, insulin, proinsulin, C-peptide • Tumor necrosis factor-alpha, intracellular adhesion molecule-1 • Fibrinogen • Urinary albumin excretion • Waist/hip ratio • Responder analyses for HbA1c, FPG, TG, HDL C, total cholesterol, non HDL C and LDL C according to pre-specified values • Proportion of patients reaching pre-specified target levels for HbA1c, FPG, TG, HDL C, non-HDL C and LDL C • Pharmacokinetics of tesaglitazar • Safety and tolerability of tesaglitazar by assessment of adverse events, laboratory values, electrocardiogram, pulse, blood pressure, hypoglycemic events, body weight, cardiac evaluation, and physical examination
