Sponsor: Novo Nordisk
Information provided by: Novo Nordisk
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00343980
  Purpose

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and Oceania. The aim of this research study is to compare the efficacy of adding inhaled preprandial insulin to glimepiride compared to adding rosiglitazone to glimepiride for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and to verify its safety (hypoglycaemia, pulmonary function, body weight, insulin antibodies and side effects)


Condition Intervention Phase
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Drug: rosiglitazone
Drug: inhaled human insulin
Drug: glimepiride
Phase III

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled Pre-prandial Human Insulin Plus Glimepiride Versus Rosiglitazone Plus Glimepiride in Type 2 Diabetes

Study Start Date: October 2006
Study Completion Date: March 2008
Primary Completion Date: March 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: A Drug: inhaled human insulin
Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, pre-prandial, inhalation.
Other Name: NN1998
Drug: glimepiride
Tablets, 4 mg/day.
Active Comparator: B Drug: rosiglitazone
Tablets, 4 mg once or twice a day.
Drug: glimepiride
Tablets, 4 mg/day.

Detailed Description:

The decision to discontinue the development of AERx® is not due to any safety concerns. An analysis concluded that fast-acting inhaled insulin in the form it is known today, is unlikely to offer significant clinical or convenience benefits over injections of modern insulin with pen devices.
