What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

In this phase 4 trial, researchers set out to test Insulin (regular human).

The extension study was an extension to double-blind study of 16 weeks (TA-7284-11).

It had 1 arm (groups): Canagliflozin (TA-7284) +insulin (experimental).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

Who Took Part

139 actual participants took part.

It was open to people of any sex aged from 20 years with no upper age limit.

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

Examples of who could join: Patients should complete the week 16 assessments in the double-blind study (TA-7284-11).

The full record lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria; among the exclusions: patients with hereditary glucose-galactose malabsorption or primary renal glucosuria; patients with severe diabetic complications (proliferative diabetic retinopathy, stage 4 nephropathy, or serious diabetic neuropathy); patients with serious renal or hepatic disease.

How the Study Was Run

Design: single-group and open-label.

Nothing was hidden in this open-label Insulin (regular human) study: the participants and staff both knew the treatment.

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

It started in 2014-12 with completion listed for 2016-04.

It ran at 7 sites in Japan (7).

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

Primary outcome: Safety and Tolerability Assessed by Adverse Events (Number of Participants Experiencing With Adverse Events) (time frame: Placebo/CANA: 36 Weeks, CANA/CANA: 52 Weeks).

It also tracked 3 secondary outcomes, for example Change in Percentage of HbA1c, Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose and Percentage Change in Body Weight.

What This Means in Plain Language

Put simply, this is a phase 4 trial of Insulin (regular human) in 139 people.

The trial is marked completed; results are posted on the registry, and this page does not restate them.
