E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the effect on glycemic control, as measured by glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), of exenatide once weekly (EQW) following 24 weeks of treatment compared to placebo in children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of EQW compared to placebo following 24 weeks of treatment in children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To compare the effects of EQW following 24 weeks of treatment to those achieved by placebo in children and adolescents with T2D on the following: Fasting plasma glucose concentration, Proportion of patients achieving HbA1c goals, Body weight and Tanner pubertal stage, Blood pressure and lipids
To assess the effects of long-term EQW therapy (~1 year) in children and adolescents with T2D on the following: Long-term safety and tolerability, Parameters related to glycemic control, including HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose concentration, and proportion of patients achieving HbA1c goals, Body weight and Tanner pubertal stage, Blood pressure and lipids
To examine the effect of exenatide once weekly on beta-cell function (HOMA-B) and insulin sensitivity (HOMA-S) as measured by the homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) in children and adolescents with T2D who are not taking insulin
Assess pk of exenatide once weekly in children and adolescents with T2D

E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
Mixed Meal Substudy, Amendment 3.0, 09 April 15 (Appendix F of protocol)
The primary objective of this exploratory substudy is: To evaluate the effect of exenatide once weekly on postprandial beta-cell function as assessed by C peptide secretion during a mixed meal test, following approximately 28 weeks of exenatide once weekly treatment and at approximately 10 to 12 weeks following cessation of drug therapy.
The secondary objective of this exploratory substudy is: To assess postprandial glucose and glucagon responses during a mixed meal test following approximately 28 weeks of exenatide once weekly treatment and at approximately 10 to 12 weeks following cessation of drug therapy.
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic measurements of plasma exenatide concentrations for potential future analysis will be collected within the 30 min prior to the start of the standardized meal |
