Trial Information

Summary: A Dose-Titration Study of GK Activator (2) in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.

Status: Completed

Protocol Number: BC19800

Sponsor: Hoffmann-La Roche

Company Division: Pharmaceutical

Official Scientific Title: An open label study to determine the effect on fasting glucose levels, and safety, of increasing doses of GK Activator (2) in patients with Type 2 diabetes not optimally controlled with one previous oral antihyperglycemic agent.

Brief Summary: This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of increasing doses of GK Activator (2) in patients with type 2 diabetes whose condition has not been optimally controlled with one previous oral antihyperglycemic agent. After a 2 week washout from their previous antidiabetic therapy, patients will receive GK Activator (2) orally, twice a day for 12 weeks, at increasing doses of 25mg bid to 200mg bid; doses will be titrated to achieve a target fasting glucose level (FPG) of <100mg/dL. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals. Target sample size is 120.
