Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin, Added to Therapy of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes With Inadequate Glycemic Control on Insulin

This study is being carried out to see if Dapagliflozin in addition to insulin is effective and safe in treating patients with type 2 diabetes when compared to placebo (identical looking inactive treatment) in addition to insulin

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Patients with HbA1c ≥7.5% and ≤10.5% and who are on a stable insulin regimen of at least 30 IU of injectable insulin per day either without any other oral antidiabetic drug or with a stable dose of oral antidiabetic drugs

Exclusion criteria

  • Type 1 Diabetes
  • Treatment with more than two additional oral antidiabetic drugs
  • Moderate and severe renal (kidney) failure or dysfunction

Treatment and study plan

Dapagliflozin

Drug

tablet oral 2.5 mg total daily dose once daily 48 weeks (= 24 week randomised treatment period + 24 week study extension period I)

Placebo

Drug

Placebo

Primary outcomes

  1. Adjusted Mean Change in HbA1c Levels

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    To assess the efficacy of 2.5 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg dapagliflozin compared to placebo as add-on therapy to insulin in improving glycaemic control in participants with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycaemic control on ≥ 30 IU injectable insulin daily for at least 8 weeks prior to enrolment, as determined by the change in HbA1c levels from baseline to Week 24, excluding data after insulin up-titration.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adjusted Mean Change in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    To examine whether treatment with dapagliflozin in combination with insulin is superior in reducing body weight or causing less weight gain as compared to placebo added to insulin treatment after 24 weeks of treatment (LOCF), excluding data after insulin up-titration.

  2. Adjusted Mean Change in Calculated Mean Daily Insulin Dose

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    To examine whether treatment with dapagliflozin in combination with insulin leads to a lower absolute calculated mean daily insulin dose as compared to placebo added to insulin treatment alone, from baseline to week 24, including data after insulin up-titration.

  3. Proportion of Participants With Calculated Mean Daily Insulin Dose Reduction

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    To examine whether treatment with dapagliflozin in combination with insulin leads to higher percentage of participants with calculated mean daily insulin dose reduction from baseline to week 24 (i.e. reduction >= 10%) as compared to placebo added to insulin treatment.

  4. Adjusted Mean Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    To examine whether treatment with dapagliflozin in combination with insulin is superior in reducing Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) as compared to placebo added to insulin treatment after 24 weeks of treatment, excluding data after insulin up-titration.

Other outcomes

  1. Proportion of Participants With Lack of Glycemic Control

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 24

    Participants with lack of glycemic control or insulin up-titration for failing to achieve pre-specified glycemic targets
