Brief Summary

This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, multi-center, active-controlled (pioglitazone) study of tesaglitazar (0.5 mg and 1 mg) in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on diet and lifestyle advice alone during the run-in period. The study comprises a 3-week enrollment period, 6 week placebo single blind run in period followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Absolute change from baseline to end of randomized treatment period in glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) []

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), insulin, proinsulin and C-peptide []

  2. Insulin sensitivity by assessment of change in the calculated variable homeostasis assessment model []

  3. Lipid parameters []

  4. FPG, homeostasis assessment model, insulin, proinsulin, C-peptide []

  5. Responder analyses for HbA1c, FPG, TG, HDL C, total cholesterol, non HDL C and LDL C according to pre-specified values []

  6. Pharmacokinetics of tesaglitazar []

  7. Safety and tolerability of tesaglitazar by assessment of adverse events, laboratory values, electrocardiogram, pulse, blood pressure, hypoglycemic events, body weight, cardiac evaluation, and physical examination []

  8. Assess the effects on patient-reported outcomes using the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) []

  9. Validate the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-Diabetes Questionnaire (WPAI Diabetes) and the Diabetes Productivity Impairment Questionnaire (DPIQ) (US only). []
