ConjuChem Launches Diabetes Drug Trial

The study will involve up to 225 patients, and will evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly injections of CJC-1134-PC for a period of 17 weeks.

US based biotechnology firm ConjuChem has initiated patient enrolment in a Phase II clinical trial of its proprietary GLP-1 receptor agonist drug CJC-1134-PC in patients with type 2 diabetes who are receiving metformin monotherapy. Results of the Phase II study will be used to establish the optimal dose for planned Phase III studies.

 

The randomised, double-blind and placebo-controlled dose-ranging study will involve up to 225 patients, and will evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly injections of CJC-1134-PC for a period of 17 weeks.

 

In the trial, the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic relationship of CJC-1134-PC and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) or fasting plasma glucose will also be evaluated.
