Safety and Efficacy of Exenatide as Monotherapy and Adjunctive Therapy to Oral Antidiabetic Agents in Adolescents With Type 2 Diabetes

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Drug: Exenatide
Registration Number
NCT00658021
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that glycemic control, as measured by change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to endpoint, with exenatide is superior to that of placebo after 28 weeks of treatment in adolescent patients with type 2 diabetes who are naïve to antidiabetes agents, or patients who are being treated with metformin, an SU, or a combination of metformin and an SU

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adjusted Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at Week 28Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Change from baseline in HbA1c is reported as adjusted least square (LS) mean values at Week 28. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. A mixed model with repeated measures (MMRM) analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Number of Participants With Post-Treatment Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) During Safety Follow-up PeriodFrom 1 day after the Week 28/ED visit to 3 years after Week 28/ED visit.

Post-treatment adverse events (AEs) were defined as AEs that started or worsened during the off-treatment period (Safety Follow-up Period), which was defined as the day after the Week 28/early discontinuation (ED) visit to the date of completion of the Safety Follow-up Period. The AESIs recorded were as follows: hematological malignancies, thyroid neoplasms, pancreas neoplasms, aplastic anemia, pancreatitis, pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes (including congenital anomalies).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Achieving HbA1c Goals of < 7%, <= 6.5%, and < 6.5% Through Week 28Weeks 0, 4, 12, 20 and 28

The percentage of participants achieving HbA1c goals of \< 7%, \<= 6.5%, and \< 6.5% through Week 28 were compared between treatments using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) procedure, in which screening HbA1c strata and background diabetes therapy strata served as the stratification factors. The CMH analysis excluded measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation with missing data treated as non-responder.

Adjusted Change From Baseline in Body Weight Through Week 28Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 28

Change from baseline in body weight is reported as adjusted LS mean values at Weeks 4, 12, 20 and 28. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. A MMRM analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Adjusted Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Glucose (FSG) at Week 28Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Change from baseline in FSG is reported as adjusted LS mean values at Week 28. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Adjusted Change From Baseline in Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) at Week 28Pre-meal and 2 hours post-meal on Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Change from baseline in SMBG measurements are reported as adjusted LS mean values at Week 28. SMBG measurements were taken before (pre-prandial) and 2 hours after (post-prandial) the 2 main meals of the day on 3 separate days during the week before baseline (Day 1) and Week 28. Post-prandial excursions were calculated as the difference between the pre-prandial and post-prandial blood glucose concentrations (post-prandial - pre-prandial) and averaged (mean) over the 2 main meals over the 3 separate days in each period. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. An ANCOVA analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Adjusted Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Insulin at Week 28Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Change from baseline in fasting serum insulin is reported as adjusted LS mean values at Week 28. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. An ANCOVA analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Adjusted Change From Baseline in Homeostasis Model Assessments - Beta-Cell Function (HOMA-B) and Insulin Sensitivity (HOMA-S) at Week 28Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Change from baseline in HOMA-B and HOMA-S are reported as adjusted LS mean values at Week 28. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) on or prior to the first dose of study medication. An ANCOVA analysis was performed, excluding measurements after initiation of rescue medication and study drug discontinuation.

Percentage of Participants Discontinuing the Study Due to Failure to Maintain Glycemic Control Through Week 28Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 28

Participants were discontinued from the study due to failure to maintain glycemic control if either discontinuation reason on summary case report form was "Loss of glucose control" or AE with lower level Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) term "Loss of control of blood sugar" or "Hyperglycaemia" leading to study drug discontinuation, using MedDRA Version 23.0.
