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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this study is to determine the effect and safety of insulin efsitora alfa (LY3209590) compared to degludec in adult participants with type 2 diabetes who are starting basal insulin for the first time.The study consists of a 1-week screening period, a 2-week lead-in period, a 52-week treatment period, and a 5-week safety follow-up period. The study will last up to 60 weeks.
    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.

    Percentage of time spent within the blood glucose range of 70 to 180 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) [3.9 to 10.0 millimoles per liter (mmol/L)], as measured during the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) session over a 24-hour period, from Week 48 to Week 52. APD: All randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of the study drug and had evaluable data for this outcome at baseline or Week 48-52 were included. Participants who discontinued the study drug due to inadvertent enrollment were excluded. Data from participants at China sites were assessed separately due to the use of a different CGM device (Freestyle Libre H), while the rest of the world used the Dexcom G6. The device differences prevented pooling the data for analysis.

APD:All randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of the study drug and had a baseline and at least one post- baseline value for this outcome. Participants who discontinued the study drug due to inadvertent enrollment were excluded. Data from participants at China sites were assessed separately due to the use of a different CGM device (Freestyle Libre H), while the rest of the world used the Dexcom G6. The device differences prevented pooling the data for analysis.

    Change From Baseline in Treatment-Related Impact Measures for Diabetes (TRIM-D) -Total Score at Week 26 and Week 52
    End point description
    The TRIM-D is a participant-reported measure designed to assess the impact of diabetes treatment on individuals' functioning and well-being across different diabetes treatments. The questionnaire includes 28 items grouped into 5 sub-domains: treatment burden, daily life, diabetes management, compliance, and psychological health. Each item is assessed on a 5-point scale, with higher scores indicating better health status. All items were summed to obtain a total raw score, which was transformed to a scale of 0 to 100 to obtain a total score. The total score range is 0-100, with a higher total score indicating better overall health and well-being, while a lower total score indicates worse health or well-being. APD:All randomized participants who received at least one dose of the study drug, had a baseline and at least one post- baseline value for this outcome.Participants who discontinued the study drug due to inadvertent enrollment were excluded.

    The SF-36v2 is a participant-reported measure designed to assess health status using 36 items across 8 domains: Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional, and Mental Health. Each domain is scored individually, and information from these 8 domains is further aggregated into 2 health component summary scores, the Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary. Scoring of each domain and both summary scores are norm based and presented in the form of T-scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate better levels of function and/or better health. Range cannot be specified in norm-based scores. APD:All randomized participants who received at least one dose of the study drug, had a baseline and at least one post- baseline value for this outcome.Participants who discontinued the study drug due to inadvertent enrollment were excluded.

    Change from Baseline in EuroQuality of Life (EuroQol) -5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Health State Index and EQ visual analog scale (VAS) Scores at Week 26 and Week 52
    End point description
    The EQ-5D-5L is a multidimensional, health-related, quality-of-life instrument. It includes 5 dimensions of health (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) that are assessed at 5 levels of response (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and unable to perform or extreme problems). A single health- state index value was derived, which ranges from less than 0 (health state equivalent to death, negative values are valued as worse than death) to 1 (perfect health). The EQ VAS rates the participants’ perceived health from 0 (the worst imaginable health) to 100 (the best imaginable health). This score provides a composite picture of the respondent’s health status. APD:All randomized participants who received at least one dose of the study drug, had a baseline and at least one post- baseline value for this outcome.Participants who discontinued the study drug due to inadvertent enrollment were excluded.

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Glucose monitoring endpoint data from Chinese sites were not reported due to the use of a different CGM device (Freestyle Libre H) compared to the Dexcom G6 used at other sites. The device differences prevented data pooling for analysis.
