What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

This registered not phased trial tested Insulin Lispro.

Insulin therapy with lispro mix 50/50 t.i.d. is a treatment with a single insulin device.

It had 1 arm (groups): Insulin lispro mix 50/50 (experimental).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

More on the Plan

Patients will continue existing insulin therapy for three months.

After that, the investigators will change insulin therapy according to the insulin regimen below and continue the therapy for six months.

Patients will terminate from sulfonylurea treatment at the change of insulin therapy.

The investigators will not change other oral hypoglycemic agents during the whole study period.

Who Took Part

80 planned participants were the target.

It was open to people of any sex aged from 20 years up to 75 years.

Healthy volunteers were not accepted; participants needed the condition being studied.

The full record lists 0 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria; among the exclusions: patients with renal failure with serum creatinine level ≧ 2.0; patients with hepatocirrhosis; patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy or worse.

How the Study Was Run

It was run as a single-group and open-label study.

Everyone knew when Insulin Lispro was being given (open label), which is simpler to run but leaves more room for expectations to affect what is reported.

Everyone received the same intervention, so there was no separate comparison group inside the trial.

It started in 2011-02 with completion listed for 2013-12.

It ran at 4 sites in Japan (4).

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

Primary outcome: pre- and postprandial glucose levels in SMBG (time frame: nine months).

It also tracked 1 secondary outcome, for example Total score of Questionnaire on QOL.

What This Means in Plain Language

Put simply, this is a not phased trial of Insulin Lispro in 80 people.

Its status is unknown; no results are posted to the registry yet, so nothing here describes outcomes.
