Filter by:This study will investigate how the body processes nasal glucagon and the effect of nasal glucagon on the body. After an 8-hour overnight fast and 4 hours after the start of a low-carbohydrate breakfast, the study drug will be delivered into the participant's nostril(s) (intranasally) once or twice in each of four study periods. The study is open to adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and is expected to last about 50 days for each participant.
The drug effects will be studied after a single dose of 50 milligram (mg) albiglutide and a single dose of 10 microgram exenatide, to gain insight into the central mechanisms of nausea associated with Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists. This study will explore the potential differences at the expected time of maximum concentration (Cmax) between a long-acting (albiglutide) and short-acting (exenatide) GLP-1R agonist in brain activation of healthy volunteers assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This is a phase IV, 2-part, 2-period crossover (session), single dose, randomized, single blind (blinded to both the subject and the imaging evaluators analysing the MRI data), placebo- and active-controlled study in adult healthy volunteers who are susceptible to motion sickness. Part A and Part B are the same in design, both consisting of a screening stage, a dosing/assessment stage, and a follow-up visit. Data from Part A will inform progression, methods, and analysis plan for Part B. Each sequence includes three scanning visits: albiglutide plus scan, exenatide plus scan and an off-therapy -natural history scan with a 6-9 week washout period between the dosing scans. A total of 24 to 28 subjects will be randomized in the study (Part A and Part B). The cross over design is divided into 2 sessions and schedule is as follow, on Day 1 (either Session 1 (S1) or Session 2 (S2) per, if randomized) subject will under go an off-therapy MRI scan, on Day 5 subject will receive a single dose of 50 mg albiglutide or albiglutide placebo, and Day 8 subject will receive a single dose of 10 microgram exenatide or saline placebo followed by a post-dose MRI scan. At each session subject will receive only one active drug (albiglutide or exenatide).
The overall goal for this pilot clinical trial is to explore the accuracy and acceptability of a non-invasive, wearable glucose sensor in patients living with DM. This study will compare needleless glucose sensor readings with glucometer measurements from patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes (T1DM or T2DM), under varying conditions.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of albiglutide and exenatide on gastric myoelectrical activity (GMA), gastric emptying (GE) and nausea (as measured by visual analogue scale [VAS]) in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The study is divided in two parts. Part A will characterize the GMA, GE and nausea response to exenatide and confirm exenatide as a positive control for Part B. Part B will compare the effects of albiglutide and exenatide on GMA, GE and nausea. Part A is a single arm, open-label design and all subjects will receive 10 microgram (mcg) subcutaneous exenatide twice daily for 5 days. This part will comprise 3 study periods: a 3-week screening/wash-out, 5-day treatment, and follow-up (within 7 days after the last dose of exenatide). The total duration of a subject's participation in Part A will be approximately 5 weeks. Once Part A is complete, data will be reviewed and a decision to progress to Part B will be made. In Part B, subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive either albiglutide (starting dose of 30 milligrams [mg] once weekly for 4 weeks, followed by 50 mg once weekly for 4 weeks) or exenatide (starting dose of 5 mcg twice daily for 4 weeks, followed by 10 mcg twice daily for 4 weeks). The total duration of a subject's participation in the study will be approximately 15 weeks.
The primary objective is to determine if subjects taking the natural product AphoelineBrake™ in addition to their standard treatment experience differences in metabolic disease control, gastrointestinal hormones and inflammatory markers diet, hunger, satiety, weight, compared to patients taking a placebo in addition to their standard treatment. The secondary objective is to study the effect of Aphoeline Brake on oxidative and inflammatory stress markers.
Chronic non-healing wounds represent a major source of morbidity, disability, and mortality in diabetic patients. Diabetes is the leading cause of non-traumatic limb amputations worldwide. Many patients with ischemic or neuroischemic wounds are not candidate to surgical/endovascular revascularization, owing to anatomical vascular reasons or for the underlying conditions and co-morbidities. Therefore, identification of novel medical treatment strategies to improve wound healing in diabetic patients is a major challenge for clinicians, researchers, and health care systems. Defects in bone marrow (BM)-derive stem and progenitor cells, including EPCs (endothelial progenitor cells), contribute to diabetic complications. Stem cell mobilizing agents have been previously studied as an adjunctive therapy for critical limb ischemia and chronic non-healing wounds in diabetic and non-diabetic patients, as well as for the treatment of diabetic wound infections . Meta-analyses of such studies indicate that stem cell mobilization in these clinical conditions is safe and potentially effective in improving surrogate outcome measures and hard endpoints (such as rates of wound healing and amputation). This study plans to evaluate whether a single injection of Plerixafor improves wound healing in diabetic patients with stage III-IV (neuro)ischemic wounds.
Approximately 34 subjects will be enrolled in an unblinded cross-over design. For one week, they will use the adaptive pen device and for the next week, they will use just the insulin (or other medication) pen. This will be repeated for another one week period each. At the end of each week, the subjects will fill out a questionnaire regarding their experiences and any suggestions for improvements for the design of the pen device.
The study aims to examine the effectiveness of the short acting GLP-1 analog, Lixisenatide to achieve glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients, in patients with failure of long acting GLP-1 analog. Patients who fail to achieve significant improvement in diabetes control on basal insulin and Liraglutide will be switched to basal insulin and lixisenatide treatment for 12 weeks. The primary outcomes will be changes in HBA1C and weight.
Double blind, three arm, comparative intervention trial for 24 weeks(PEAK study) with open label extension trial for 28 weeks followed by 2 year observational study.
The purpose of this study is to determine the relevant significance of diabetes on cervical disc degeneration, and correlate diabetic control (HgbA1C) with disc glycosylation profile in patients undergoing anterior cervical discectomy and fusion for cervical spondylosis. Additionally, to compare the level of degenerative cervical disc glycosylation in patients with and without diabetes. Hypothesis: Patients with diabetes and degenerative cervical disc disease have higher levels of disc tissue glycosylation, and higher levels of glycosylation are correlated with poor outcomes.
