A Extension Study of Empagliflozin in Patients With Refractory Diabetes Mellitus With Insulin Resistance ( EMPIRE-02 )

Kobe University8 enrolled

Overview

A multicenter, open-label, single-arm, extension study with regard to the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin in patients with refractory diabetes mellitus with insulin resistance.

To determine the safety and efficacy of oral administration of empagliflozin 10 mg or 25 mg once daily for 28 weeks (52 weeks of the EMPIRE-01 study) in subjects who participated in the EMPIRE-01 study, which was conducted on refractory diabetes mellitus patients with insulin resistance (insulin resistance syndrome, lipoatrophic diabetes mellitus) in a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, extension study.

Presence/absence of adverse events, adverse drug reactions, and use of rescue treatment drugs

Time frame: until Week 28 (Week 52 of the EMPIRE-01 study)

Secondary Outcomes

HbA1c change rate at Week 28 (Week 52 of the EMPIRE-01 study) of the treatment from baseline

The HbA1c change rate at Week 28 (52) from baseline is defined as HbA1c change from baseline divided by baseline HbA1c of the EMPIRE-01 study and multiplied by 100.

Time frame: at Week 28 (Week 52 of the EMPIRE-01 study) of the treatment from baseline

HbA1c change at Week 28 (Week 52 of the EMPIRE-01 study) of the treatment from baseline

The HbA1c change at Week 28 (52) of the treatment from baseline is defined as the difference in HbA1c levels between Week 28 (52) and baseline of the EMPIRE-01 study.

Time frame: at Week 28 (Week 52 of the EMPIRE-01 study) of the treatment from baseline

HbA1c at each time point
