A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of KRP-104 in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled on Metformin Alone
- Conditions
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Registration Number
- NCT00525330
- Lead Sponsor
- ActivX Biosciences, Inc.
- Brief Summary
- To assess the safety and efficacy of chronic therapy with KRP-104, a novel DPP-IV inhibitor, in patients with Type 2 Diabetes on stable metformin therapy. In addition, an estimate of how much of the HbA1c response is attributable to nocturnal coverage will be explored.

- Primary Outcome Measures
- Name - Time - Method - The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)-lowering effects of KRP-104 in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone. - 12-weeks 
- Secondary Outcome Measures
- Name - Time - Method - To assess the fasting plasma glucose (FPG)-lowering effect of KRP-104 in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone; - 12-weeks - To compare effects of once daily (QD) dosing versus twice daily (BID) dosing of KRP-104 on HbA1c and FPG - 12 weeks - To assess the effects of KRP-104 on post-prandial glucose dynamics and insulin sensitivity (homeostasis model index [HOMA-β]) in the setting of a Meal Tolerance Test(MTT) - 12 weeks - Changes from pre-prandial to 2-hour post-prandial glucose, active GLP-1, insulin summarized by treatment group from Week 0 to Week 5 and Week 12. Percent change in 2-hour post-prandial glucose summarized by treatment group from Week 0 to Week 5 and Week 12. - To assess the safety and tolerability of KRP-104; - Daily for 12 weeks to 2 weeks post-treatment
