baSal BoluS Therapy in patIenTs With TypE 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the efficacy of the association Lantus (once-a-day, od) Apidra (thrice-a-day, tid) in terms of change HbA1c from baseline to end of study (week 24), in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM).

Secondary Objectives:

To evaluate:

* The change of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to week 12 * The percentage of patients with HbA1c < 7% at week 12 and week 24 * The FBG and the 7-point self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) at baseline, week 12 and week 24 * The daily dose for both insulin glulisine insulin glargine at baseline, week 12 and week 24 * The incidence of symptomatic hypoglycemias * Adverse events

About this study

After a two-week run-in period patients will enter a six-month treatment period.

Estimated study duration per patient : 26 weeks (including a 2-week run-in period).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Known Type 1 diabetic patients (male or female) treated with any type of insulin regimen, except:
  • continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII, or pump), and
  • patients already treated with insulin glargine
  • Age: 18-60 years inclusive
  • HbA1c: 8% - 10% assessed over the past 6 month
  • At least 1 year of continuous insulin treatment
  • Willingness to accept, and ability to follow:
  • a basal bolus regimen (glargine x1 and glulisine x3 per day),
  • self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG)
  • a fixed meal plan, or CHO counting
  • Signed informed consent obtained prior to any study procedure

Criteria for entry in the treatment period:

  • HbA1c 8-10% assessed between week -2 and week 0
  • Serum creatinine ≤135 micromol/L in men and ≤110 micromol/L in women
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) lower or equal to three times the upper limit of normal
  • Pregnancy test negative if women of childbearing potential

Exclusion criteria

  • History of hypersensitivity to insulin glargine and/or insulin glulisine
  • Pregnant, breast-feeding or women of childbearing potential not using efficient contraception
  • Brittle diabetes
  • Known impaired renal function defined as serum creatinine > 135 micromol/L in men and > 110 micromol/L in women at study entry
  • Known impaired hepatic function defined as Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) greater than three times the upper limit of normal at study entry
  • Diabetes ketoacidosis
  • History of drug or alcohol abuse
  • Psychiatric or mental disease
  • Inclusion in another study in the past 6 months or previous inclusion in this study
  • Patient unable or unwilling to manage properly the basal bolus regimen

The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
