GALLANT 9 Tesaglitazar vs. Placebo in Combination With Insulin
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar in patients with type 2 diabetes who are not adequately controlled on insulin (along or in combination with one or more oral antidiabetic agents in addition to diet and lifestyle advice). The study comprises a 3-week enrollment period and a 24-week randomized, double blind, multi-center, placebo-controlled treatment period and a 3-week follow-up. Patients must receive at least 30 units of insulin per day and will continue their current oral antidiabetic treatment regimen throughout the study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
