Observational Registry for Basal Insulin Treatment Study (ORBIT)

The scientific use of basal insulin is of great help to individuals and the government. However, there are few studies to investigate the real world use, effect, safety and influence factors of basal insulin in China. This study is to evaluate the use of first basal insulin in China patients with type 2 diabetes with inadequate glycemic control on oral antidiabetic agents (OADs) from the naturalistic clinical practice.

About this study

This is a 6-month multicentre, observational, prospective, registry study. About 200 hospitals from different parts of China will take part in this study, and about 20,000 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who are inadequately controlled with OADs and willing to accept basal insulin (BI) treatment will be consecutively enrolled during a 12 months period.

The study participants will include at baseline (0 month), 3 month and end point (6 month) to collect the study information. The project will probably last for about 18 months.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • 18-80 years old
  • Type 2 diabetic patients
  • Taking OADs before inclusion
  • Recently tested HbA1c >=7% at the same site within 3 months
  • Being suggested by physician to start basal insulin (BI) treatment
  • Willing to start and having been prescribed BI treatment
  • Willing to join the registry study and sign the informed consent

Exclusion criteria

  • Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes
  • Received any type of insulin in the last 2 years (except for the intermittent use of insulin of less than 1 month each time)
  • With any severe health problem, or any other situation judged by the investigator, that is difficult for the 6 months follow-up
  • Current or planned pregnant, lactating women
  • Involved in other clinical trial simultaneously or at most 1 month before

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. To Assess the Change in HbA1c During the 6 Months Follow-up.

    Time frame: Baseline and 6 months

    • Change of HbA1c from baseline to the end-point (6 month).
  2. the Change of Hypoglycemia During Follow-up.

    Time frame: baseline and 6 months

    •The rate of hypoglycemia at baseline, 3 months (visit 2) and 6 months (visit 3)

Secondary outcomes

  1. the FPG Change From Visit 1 to Visit 3

    Time frame: baseline and 6 months

    the FPG change = the FPG level at visit 1- the FPG level at visit 3

  2. the FPG Control Rate at Visit 3

    Time frame: 6 months

    the percentage of patients who had the FPG level <7.0 mmol/L at visit 3

  3. Overall Weight Gain From Visit 1 to Visit 3

    Time frame: baseline and 6 months

    the weight gain= the mean weight at visit1 - the mean weight at visit 3
