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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ertugliflozin (MK-8835/PF-04971729) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) who have inadequate glycemic control on background antihyperglycemic therapy. The duration of this trial will be up to 67 weeks. This will consist of a 1-week Screening Period, a 10-week wash-off period from metformin, if needed, and a 2-week placebo run-in period, a 52-week double-blind treatment period, and a 14-day post-treatment follow-up period. The primary objective of this trial is to assess the Hemoglobin A1C (A1C)-lowering efficacy of the addition of ertugliflozin compared to the addition of placebo with an underlying hypothesis that addition of treatment with ertugliflozin provides greater reduction in A1C compared to the addition of placebo; the primary objective will be tested for both 5-mg and 15-mg doses of ertugliflozin.
    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. Participants who meet progressively more stringent glycemic rescue criteria had their antihyperglycemic agent (AHA) regimen adjusted or initiate treatment with a new AHA medication(s), with intensification of the participant's regimen managed as considered appropriate by the investigator. Participants on insulin should maintain a stable dose unless they meet glycemic rescue criteria.

    		 Change from Baseline in A1C at Week 26 - Excluding Rescue Approach
    End point description
    A1C is blood marker used to report average blood glucose levels over prolonged periods of time and is reported as a percentage (%). This change from baseline reflects the Week 26 A1C minus the Week 0 A1C. Excluding rescue approach data analysis excluded all data following the initiation of rescue therapy at any time point, in order to avoid the confounding influence of the rescue therapy. The analysis population included all randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of study treatment and had at least 1 assessment at or after baseline for the change from baseline at Week 26 A1C endpoint.

    End point description
    This change from baseline reflects the Week 26 body weight minus the Week 0 body weight. Excluding rescue approach data analysis excluded all data following the initiation of rescue therapy at any time point, in order to avoid the confounding influence of the rescue therapy. The analysis population included all randomized participants with a Baseline eGFR of ≥45 to <60 mL/min/1.73m^2, who took at least 1 dose of study treatment, and had at least 1 assessment at or after baseline for the change from baseline at Week 26 body weight endpoint.

    A1C is blood marker used to report average blood glucose levels over prolonged periods of time and is reported as a percentage (%).

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    After unblinding, analysis of retained plasma samples revealed unreported metformin use by ~17% of participants. Neither dose nor frequency of the protocol-prohibited metformin use is known. This potentially confounds glycemic analyses.
