Study Summary

Anxiety about needles is a commonly expressed concern by diabetics about beginning insulin therapy. A shorter, thinner pen needle that delivers insulin with the safety and efficacy profile of currently marketed pen needles may appeal to many diabetic patients as the new needle may be perceived as less intimidating and more comfortable. Currently marketed pen needles range in length from 5 to 12.7 millimeters (mm). The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the investigational 4mm x 32 Gauge(G) pen needle manufactured by Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD) provides equivalent glucose control (as measured by fructosamine levels) as the currently marketed BD 5mm x 31 G and BD 8mm x 31 G pen needles (PN)in diabetic subjects with varying insulin dosage regimens.

Primary Outcome

Within each study arm (4mm / 5mm PN, or 4mm / 8mm PN) subjects used one pen needle (PN) for 3 weeks then switched to the alternate PN for the next three weeks, for a total of 6 weeks. The principal endpoint measure of glycemic control is the percent absolute change in serum fructosamine concentration, based on the fructosamine (FRU) concentration measured in micromoles per liter (umol/L) at the end of each three week period. The change was calculated according to the following formula: Percent
