Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled Insulin in Type 2 Diabetes - Full Text View

Sponsored by:	Novo Nordisk
Information provided by:	Novo Nordisk
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00331604

Purpose

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and South America.

The aim of this research is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and blood glucose) and pulmonary safety (pulmonary function tests, chest x-rays) of mealtime inhaled insulin with subcutaneous insulin aspart both in combination with insulin detemir in Type 2 Diabetes.

Arms	Assigned Interventions
A: Experimental	Drug: inhaled human insulin Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, inhalation. Drug: insulin detemir Injection s.c., 50% of daily dose.
B: Active Comparator	Drug: insulin detemir Injection s.c., 50% of daily dose. Drug: insulin aspart Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, injection s.c.
C: Active Comparator	Drug: insulin detemir Injection s.c., 50% of daily dose. Drug: insulin aspart Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, injection s.c. Drug: insulin aspart Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, injection s.c. After 2 years.

Detailed Description:

The decision to discontinue the development of AERx® is not due to any safety concerns.

An analysis concluded that fast-acting inhaled insulin in the form it is known today, is unlikely to offer significant clinical or convenience benefits over injections of modern insulin with pen devices.
