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   43857   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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A randomized, double-blind, three arm, three treatment period, cross-over trial to investi-gate the effect of a SGLT-2 inhibitor, a DPP-4 inhibitor and a SGLT-2 inhibitor + DPP-4 inhibitor on glucagon levels, endogenous glucose production and lipolysis during hyper-, normo- and hypoglycaemia in subjects with type 2 diabetes using stable tracer technique.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To compare the glucagon response of a treatment with metformin monotherapy (baseline), a SGLT-2 inhibitor, a DPP-4 inhibitor and a combination of a SGLT-2 inhibitor and a DPP-4 inhibitor during normo-, hyper- and hypoglycaemia in a controlled clamp setting under stable metformin therapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practices and applicable regulatory requirements.

    Each randomized subject was allocated to one of the three treatment sequences (seven days once daily dosing of either Dapagliflozin+placebo Saxagliptin, or Saxagliptin + placebo Dapagliflozin or the combination of Saxagliptin + Dapagliflozin). A wash-out period of 56-84 days between the first period and second period and one of 7-42 days between the second and third period has been carried out. 1 tablet of Dapagliflozin 10 mg and 1 tablet of matching placebo for Saxagliptin 5 mg has been administrated once daily in the morning for 7 days
