Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to demonstrate efficacy and safety of self-titration algorithm with Gla-300 using the INSIGHT algorithm (once daily by 1 unit) and the EDITION algorithm (once weekly by 3 units) in Korean patients with T2D.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this study is to obtain efficacy and safety descriptive data on two different titration algorithms: the INSIGHT titration algorithm (self-titration of 1 unit/day) and the EDITION trial algorithm with insulin glargine 300 units/mL (GLA-300) when given as basal insulin in uncontrolled T2DM patients on basal insulin with or without non-insulin anti-hyperglycemic agent (NIAHA) or in insulin naïve patients.

In a Korean, single-center, type 2 diabetes patients with basal insulin therapy will be enrolled. They will be randomly assigned to either titration algorithm for GLA-300. After 12 weeks, the glycemic control, patients' satisfaction to the titration methods and healthcare providers' satisfaction to titration methods will be assessed.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Group 1

In group 1, the dose of Gla-300 will be titrated by the patients by 1 unit per day until achieving a fasting SMPG in the target range of 4.4 to 5.6 mmol/L (INSIGHT algorithm). Titration algorithms: Patients will be instructed to daily adjust their dose of Gla-300 based on fasting SMPG values. Fasting SMPG will be measured daily by the patient before breakfast and any intake of antihyperglycemic agents. Fasting SMPG in the range of ≥ 5.6 mmol/L, increase 1 unit of Gla-300 dose > 4.4 and ≤ 5.6 mmol/L, no change < 4.4 mmol/L, reduce 1 unit of Gla-300 dose

Behavioral: Group 1
Patients will be instructed to daily adjust their dose of Gla-300 based on fasting SMPG values. Fasting SMPG will be measured daily by the patient before breakfast and any intake of antihyperglycemic agents. Fasting SMPG in the range of ≥ 5.6 mmol/L, increase 1 unit of Gla-300 dose, > 4.4 and ≤ 5.6 mmol/L, no change, < 4.4 mmol/L, reduce 1 unit of Gla-300 dose
Other Names:
  • INSIGHT algorithm
  • Active Comparator: Group 2

    In group 2, the dose of Gla-300 will be titrated by the patients based on the SMPG values of the last 3 days at least weekly, but no more often than every 3 days to achieve a fasting SMPG in the target range of 4.4 to 5.6 mmol/L (EDITION algorithm). Fasting SMPG (median of the last 3 days including current day) in the range of ≥ 7.8 mmol/L, increase 6 units of Gla-300 dose > 5.6 and < 7.8 mmol/L, increase 3 units of Gla-300 dose > 4.4 and ≤ 5.6 mmol/L, no change ≥ 3.3 and < 4.4 mmol/L, reduce 3 units of Gla-300 dose < 3.3 mmol/L or occurrence of ≥ 2 symptomatic or 1 severe hypoglycemic episode in the preceding week, reduce 3 units of Gla-300 dose or at the discretion of the investigator

    Behavioral: Group 2
    Fasting SMPG (median of the last 3 days including current day) in the range of 7.8 mmol/L, increase 6 units of Gla-300 dose, > 5.6 and < 7.8 mmol/L, increase 3 units of Gla-300 dose, > 4.4 and ≤ 5.6 mmol/L, no change, 3.3 and < 4.4 mmol/L, reduce 3 units of Gla-300 dose, < 3.3 mmol/L or occurrence of ≥ 2 symptomatic or 1 severe hypoglycemic episode in the preceding week, reduce 3 units of Gla-300 dose or at the discretion of the investigator
