NCT00688701

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to placebo, used in a 2-step dose titration regimen in monotherapy, over a period of 12 weeks of treatment. The primary objective is to assess the effects of lixisenatide, in comparison to placebo, on glycemic control using a 2-step dose titration regimen in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction (absolute change) at Week 12. Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide, in comparison to placebo, on glycemic control in terms of HbA1c reduction when it is used in a one-step dose titration regimen over a period of 12 weeks, body weight, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) after a standardized meal, to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Absolute Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 12

    Absolute change = HbA1c value at Week 12 minus HbA1c value at baseline. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

    Baseline, Week 12

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change From Baseline in 2-Hour Postprandial Plasma Glucose (PPG) at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Percentage of Patients With Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Level Less Than 7% at Week 12

    Week 12

  • Percentage of Patients With Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Level Less Than or Equal to 6.5% at Week 12

    Week 12

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Change From Baseline in Glucose Excursion at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Percentage of Patients With at Least 5% Weight Loss From Baseline at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Number of Patients With Symptomatic Hypoglycemia and Severe Symptomatic Hypoglycemia

    First dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose administration
