DOMME Dose Optimization Multicentric Mexican Evaluation

Phase 4

Completed

• Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
• Interventions: Drug: Insulin glargine

• Registration Number: NCT00488527
• Lead Sponsor: Sanofi

Brief Summary

To evaluate the efficiency of Lantus plus combined oral hypoglycaemic agents in terms of respondents percentage. The respondent is defined as the person achieving a value in the final determination of HbA1c \< 7% as its absolute value and/or a decreasing in the final value of HbA1c of more than 12% compared with the initial value (final HbA1c vs. initial HbA1c).

Describe the glycemia levels and body weight change in the two response groups, (respondents and non-respondents).

Describe the adverse events Evaluate the safety of using the medication according to the incidence and relevance of the hypoglycemia events, (symptomatic, diurnal, nocturnal, severe).

Estimate the intra-patient variability of the fasting glycemia
