Primary study design | Interventional |
Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
Study setting(s) | Not specified |
Study type | Treatment |
Scientific title | |
Study acronym | DIASULIN |
Study objectives | Continuing sulfonylurea in patients without good glycaemic control and using insulin and metformin, will diminish insulin secretion of beta-cells, less than discontinuing sulfonylurea in these patients. |
Ethics approval(s) | Not provided at time of registration |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM type II) |
Intervention | Continuing sulfonylurea with a combination of metformin and insulin glargine versus discontinuing sulfonylurea with this combination. |
Intervention type | Drug |
Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
Phase | Not Specified |
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Metformin, sulfonylurea, insulin glargine |
Primary outcome measure | Difference between the two groups in the remaining insulin secretion of the beta-cells, assessed by differences in Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA)-beta and in fasting C-peptide. |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Difference in mean daily dosage of insulin glargine in order to reach good glycaemic control (HbA1c <= 7.0%) 2. Percentage of patients with good glycaemic control after 12 months 3. Percentage of patients with good glycaemic control at several intervals within 12 months 4. Frequency of serious and of nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes 5. Waist circumference 6. Quality of life 7. Patients' treatment satisfaction |
