Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of Sotagliflozin in Young Adult Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Elevated Hemoglobin A1C (NCT NCT02383940)

NCT ID: NCT02383940

Last Updated: 2020-02-12

Results Overview

Baseline was defined as the last value collected prior to the first dose of double-blind study medication. Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. Least Square (LS) mean changes from baseline were obtained from mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model with treatment, randomization strata of insulin delivery (MDI, CSII) and Week-4 A1C (\<=10%, \>10%), time (study week), and a treatment-by-time interaction as fixed categorical effects, and baseline A1C-by-time interaction as a covariate.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 15 sites in United States between 20 April 2015 and 23 September 2016.

147 participants were screened and 87 participants with Type 1 diabetes mellitus who had inadequate glycemic control with insulin therapy alone, were randomized equally into two treatment groups: sotagliflozin 400 milligrams (mg) or placebo.

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 12

Population: Analysis was performed on mITT population. Here, 'overall number of participants analyzed' = participants evaluable for this outcome measure.

Baseline was defined as the last value collected prior to the first dose of double-blind study medication. Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. Least Square (LS) mean changes from baseline were obtained from mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model with treatment, randomization strata of insulin delivery (MDI, CSII) and Week-4 A1C (\<=10%, \>10%), time (study week), and a treatment-by-time interaction as fixed categorical effects, and baseline A1C-by-time interaction as a covariate.

Population: Analysis included participants from the mITT population. Here, overall number of participants analyzed = participants with available data for this outcome measure.

The daily bolus and basal insulin doses were calculated as an average of the doses over 3 to 5 days before each visit (Baseline and Week 12). Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. LS mean changes from baseline were obtained from MMRM model.

Population: Analysis was performed on mITT population. Here, 'overall number of participants analyzed' = participants evaluable for this outcome measure.

A 2-hour PPG sample (plasma) was obtained 2-hours after a standardized Mixed Meal at Baseline (Day 1) and at the visit at Week 12. At Week 12, study drug was to be given within 15 minutes before liquid "Boost®," "Ensure®," or similar nutrition drink product; at baseline, study drug was to be given after the 2-hour post-Mixed Meal PPG sample. Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. LS mean changes from baseline were obtained from analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model.

Glycemic instability (mg/dL\*minutes/1000) by hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia was measured by CGM AUC outside target range (as a daily average over the week prior to the visit \[Baseline and Week 12\]) over 24 hours, where outside target range was defined as CGM glucose AUC \>150 mg/dL (hyperglycemia) and CGM glucose AUC \<70 mg/dL (hypoglycemia). Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. LS mean changes from baseline were obtained from MMRM model.

Hypoglycemic event by SMBG was defined as an event in which the fingerstick measurement was \<=70 mg/dL. The number of hypoglycemic events per day was calculated as a daily average number of episodes over the week prior to visit (Baseline and Week 12). Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 12 value. LS mean changes from baseline were obtained from MMRM model.
