NCT01030952

Brief Summary

A 3-week, multi-center, open-label, randomized, active-control, parallel-group study to compare effects of Nateglinide and Acarbose on postprandial glucose fluctuation in Chinese drug-naive patients type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, participants in different groups took Nateglinide at a dose of 120 mg orally three times daily for up to 3 weeks or Acarbose at a dose of 50 mg three times daily for up to 3 weeks, respectively.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Area Under Curve of 0-4 Hours Postprandial Glucose (AUCpp0-4hours) in Standardized Meal Test Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)

    The postprandial glucose area under the curve (AUC)was calculated using values from the 3 time points. Participants were fasting (no calorie intake for at least 8 hours prior to the meal test) and completed the standardized meal test between 7 and 10 AM. 0-4 hours AUC were calculated using trapezoid methods.

    3 weeks (end of study) minus baseline

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Change in Incremental Glucose Peak (IGP) From Baseline

    baseline, 3 weeks (end of study)

  • Change in Mean Blood Glucose (MBG)

    baseline and at 3 weeks (end of study)

  • Change in Standard Deviation (SD) From Baseline of Mean Blood Glucose (MBG) Over 24 Hours.

    baseline, 3 weeks (end of study)

  • Change in Mean of Daily Difference of Paired Blood Glucose Value (MODD)

    baseline, 3 weeks (end of study)

  • Changes in 24 Hour Glucose Area Under Curve (AUCpp)

    baseline, end of study (3 weeks)

  • +9 more secondary outcomes
