Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Type 2 diabetes is epidemic and its treatment has become more and more difficult. Consensus algorithms have been developed to help clinicians to select among the numerous medications and their combinations for achieving and maintaining a target glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of <7%.

AMAZING, a pragmatic clinical trial, aims to compare commonly used oral diabetes medications, when combined with metformin, on glycemia-lowering effectiveness.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

  • Source data verification: paper or electronic medical records.

  • Statistical analysis: All analyses will compare the randomly assigned treatment groups under the intention- to-treat principle

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Glimepiride

up to 4 mg/day

Drug: Glimepiride
Weekly adjustment based on self-monitoring of blood glucose level to a maximum of 4 mg daily

Experimental: Vildagliptin

50 mg bid

Drug: Vildagliptin
Reduce to 50 mg if estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <45 mL/min

Experimental: Pioglitazone

up to 30 mg/day

Drug: Pioglitazone
Start with 15 mg/day and advance to 30 mg/day

Experimental: Canagliflozin

300 mg/day

Drug: Canagliflozin
Start with 200 mg/day and advance to 300 mg/day on the basis of fasting glucose monitoring

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The primary outcome is maintenance of metabolic control (glycemic durability), defined as time to primary failure with a HbA1c value >7% on maximally tolerated doses of the assigned drug. [Six years]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Continuous glucose monitoring for 72 consecutive hours at least once each year of follow-up [6 years]

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Changes of low density lipoprotein cholesterol level from baseline each year of follow up [6 years]

  2. Changes of high density lipoprotein cholesterol level from baseline each year of follow up [six years]

  3. Changes of triglyceride level from baseline each year of follow up [6 years]
