Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Outcome name:Serum levels of HbA1C. Measure:Average change in HbA1C from baseline to week 24. Timepoints:Before starting treatment, day 1 and weeks 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Outcome name:Oral glucose tolerance test (PTOG). Fasting plasma glucose (GPA). Serum levels of HbA1C. Measure:Change from baseline in the area under the curve (ABC) from 0 to 180 minutes in the postprandial glucose response (GPP). change from baseline in fasting plasma glycemia (GPA). Proportion of patients achieving a therapeutic response to blood glucose that is defined as AI <7.0%. Timepoints:Oral glucose tolerance test (PTOG): Before starting treatment and in weeks 24 and 76. Fasting plasma glucose (GPA): Before starting treatment, day 1 and in weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 30, 37, 50, 63 and 76. Serum levels of HbA1C: Before starting treatment, day 1 and in weeks 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 30, 37, 50, 63 and 76. ; Outcome name:Levels of glucose, glucagon, C-peptide and insulin after an oral glucose tolerance test (PTOG). Serum levels of HbA1C. The function of the beta cells will be measured by the Homeostasis Evaluation Model (HOMA). Insulin resistance will be measured by the HOMA-IR. Measure:1) Proportion of patients achieving an A1C &#8804; 6.5%. 2) The area under the curve (AUC) from 0 to 180 minutes for glucagon, insulin and postprandial C-peptide. 3) Function of beta cells. 4) Insulin resistance. 5) Fasting glucagon, insulin and C-peptide. 6) Change from the baseline in the levels of glucose, glucagon, C-peptide and insulin at 0 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes and 180 minutes after a PTOG. Timepoints:Before starting the treatment and in weeks 24 and 76. ; Outcome name:1) HbA1C serum levels. 2), 5), 6) Glucose, glucagon, C-peptide and fasting insulin levels and then after an oral glucose tolerance test (PTOG). 3) The function of the beta cells will be measured by the Homeostasis Evaluation Model (HOMA). 4) Insulin resistance will be measured by the HOMA-IR. Measure:Other Efficacy Criteria I: 1) The proportion of patients achieving an A1C &#8804; 6.5%. 2) The area under
