NCT01060059
First received: January 26, 2010
Last updated: March 7, 2012
Last verified: March 2012
  Purpose

Although the efficacy and safety profile of exenatide has been well established, few data exist on the real world results of exenatide treatment in specific populations and clinical settings. This study is intended to fill this gap through observing and collecting prospective data from a population of Italian patients initiating treatment with either exenatide or basal insulin formulations after failure to achieve glycemic control with oral antihyperglycemic agents (OHA).

Observational studies represent noninterventional research; therefore, this study does not involve randomization of patients to particular comparator arms or therapies. The term "noninterventional" means that the healthcare providers decisions regarding the proper treatment and care of the patient are made in the course of normal clinical practice. Patients enrolled in this study are enrolling for the collection of their data on observations made during normal clinical practice.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To estimate in a type 2 Diabetes Mellitus population initiating exenatide or basal insulin therapy after oral treatment failure, the proportion of patients in each cohort who achieve glycemic target of HbA1c ≤ 7.0% with minimal weight gain (≤ 1 Kg). [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >HbA1c change from baseline >Change of fasting blood glucose from baseline [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Proportion of patients with HbA1c reduction from baseline ≥ 1% and proportion of patients reaching HbA1c target values of ≤7% and <6.5% >Body weight change and BMI change from baseline [ Time Frame: 12 month ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Proportion of patients achieving a weight decrease of ≥ 3% and ≥ 5%, respectively >Baseline characteristics of patients and factors associated with treatment choice [ Time Frame: 12 month ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Changes of cardiovascular risk markers (if available): fasting blood lipids, blood pressure, waist circumference [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Incidence and severity of side-effects including hypoglycaemia and gastrointestinal symptoms [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Change in patient reported outcomes (including health status, treatment satisfaction, psychological well-being) in each cohort [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Final exenatide or insulin total daily dose and average dose of exenatide or insulin [mcg/day or IU/day] for the time of exposure >Duration of treatment with exenatide or basal insulin [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the following in each cohort of patients: >Adherence to the treatment prescribed >Reasons for significant changes of antihyperglycemic treatment >Resource use associated with treatment for diabetes of patients in each cohort [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
