Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of treatment with sitagliptin compared with placebo on glycated hemoglobin (A1C), and the safety and tolerability of sitagliptin, in pediatric participants (ages 10-17 years) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with inadequate glycemic control. The primary hypothesis for this study was that sitagliptin reduces A1C more than placebo after 20 weeks of treatment. Amendment 5 of the protocol removed 2 arms from the study (Metformin arm and the Placebo followed by Sitagliptin arm). Participants already in these 2 arms continued in the study. EUPASS4468 is a follow-up, observational assessment of safety of participants who participated in the MK-0431-083 study for up to 5 years.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research. The following additional measure defined for this study was in place for the protection of trial participants: glycemic rescue therapy, as appropriate, and as per the study glycemic rescue criteria, consisted of sitagliptin or metformin as an initial glycemic rescue (glycemic Rescue Step 1) and insulin as an additional glycemic rescue (glycemic Rescue Step 2), if needed.
    Background therapy
    Participants who were on insulin at screening continued receiving insulin during the study.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: Subjects reported in the baseline period (Weeks 0-20, Period 2) were in the all-subjects-as-treated population. The worldwide number of subjects enrolled in the trial was the same as the all-subjects-as-randomized population (Randomization, Period 1) . Baseline characteristics were available for the all-subjects-as-treated population (Weeks 0-20, Period 2).

    Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event During Weeks 0-54 [4]
    End point description
    The number of participants who discontinued from study drug due to an adverse event during Weeks 0-54 was reported. An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a person administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. The analysis population includes all randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study medication.

    Change from Baseline in Glucose 3-Hour AUC at Week 54
    End point description
    AUC endpoints were derived via the trapezoidal rule using 9-point Meal Tolerance Test (MTT) measurements. This change from baseline was Week 54 glucose 3-hour AUC minus the Week 0 glucose 3-hour AUC. The analysis population included all randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study medication, consented to participate in the MTT, and had data for the analysis endpoint at timepoint measurements.

    Participants were evaluated with a visual oral exam; a subset had dental photographs. Teeth worsening included participants with worsening of tooth fracture, tooth discoloration, or enamel defect as determined by the independent reviewer. Worsening in these categories was a change in dental defect assessments made by comparing Week 20 dental assessments versus Baseline dental assessments.
