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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug known as dulaglutide when added to sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice, and the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki, in addition to following the laws and regulations of the country or countries in which a study is conducted.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: Of the 424 participants who started the study and were randomized, one participant was withdrawn from treatment prior to dosing. The participant continued study participation and completed the study without study drug. This participant is not included in the overall number of baseline participants [intent-to-treat (ITT) population] for the Dulaglutide 0.75 mg reporting group.

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The worldwide number enrolled is represented in Period 1, however one participant was randomized into the study did not receive injectable study drug at the discretion of the investigator. This participant was not included in the efficacy or safety analysis; however, the participant continued participation in the study and completed all study activities.

    Least Squares mean (LS) of the HbA1c change from baseline to primary endpoint at week 24 was adjusted by treatment, country, SGLT2 inhibitor dose, metformin use, treatment-by-visit interactions as fixed effects, and baseline HbA1c as a covariate and participant as a random effect, via a mixed-model repeated measure (MMRM) analysis. The intent-to-treat (ITT) estimand [treatment(Tx)-regimen estimand] used all data including post-rescue data and compared the benefit of treatment regimens as they were actually taken. Analysis Population Description (APD): All randomized participants who received at least one dose of study medication and had post-rescue data.

    The self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) data were collected at the following 6 time points: pre-morning meal; 2 hours post-morning meal; pre-midday meal; 2 hours post-midday meal; pre-evening meal; 2 hours post-evening meal. Least Squares (LS) means of change from baseline were calculated using a mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) with treatment, metformin, country, SGLT2i dose, baseline HbA1c strata, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline as a covariate. Analysis Population Description: All participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had baseline SMPG value and at least one post-baseline SMPG value.
