Over the last years, there has been a progressive increase in the prevalence of diabetes. Approximately 3.3 million French adults and approximately 425 million adults worldwide have been diagnosed with diabetes. Because of the associated high morbiditiy and mortality, this chronic disease is at the heart of public health discussions, and technologies to improve its management are constantly progressing. One notable innovation is the Freestyle Free blood glucose meter, which enables the continuous measurement of interstitial blood glucose levels. This type of device has enabled diabetic patients to refine their blood glucose monitoring and improve the balance of their diabetes, while reducing the associated constraints. To date, the Freestyle Libre meter is only available in patients treated with insulin pumps or multi-injections (at least 3 insulin injections per day) due to the risk of significant blood glucose variations. However, one can imagine other situations where the Freestyle Libre could be of interest to detect significant glycemic imbalances, such as in diabetic patients with cancer treated with chemotherapy. To our knowledge, no study has been conducted on the relationship between chemotherapy and glycemic balance. A few studies have looked at the balance of diabetes and chemotherapy in combination with corticosteroid therapy, but the analyses were based on fasting blood glucose levels, or some capillary blood glucose levels, or glycated hemoglobin - which can be deficient due to toxic treatments at the bone marrow level with variations in erythropoiesis. Hypoglycemia facilitated by anorexia (related to cancer and chemotherapy) or hyperglycemia facilitated by hyperglycemic drugs can be severe for patients with high care utilization and associated significant cost. However, other studies have looked at the consequences of unbalanced diabetes in the context of cancer treated with chemotherapy. The results showed that hyperglycemia could lead to an increased risk of toxicity and side effects of chemotherapy. In addition, the choice of chemotherapy type or dosage may be different from a non-diabetic patient, which may result in a reduced remission and/or cure rate. These results are then in contradiction with common practice, as the presence of cancer often leads doctors to be less rigorous in controlling blood sugar levels. As the prevalence of diabetes in patients newly diagnosed with cancer is quite high (between 8 and 18% depending on the study) and because it is likely to continue to increase with the increasing prevalence of diabetes, particularly type 2 diabetes, closer monitoring of blood glucose levels in diabetic patients appears to be essential in the overall management of the patient. In our study, we therefore focused on the continuous interstitial glycemia of diabetic patients entering the Ambulatory Medical Unit of Cancerology to start chemotherapy related to their cancer, be it hematological, digestive, cutaneous or gynecological.
The purpose of the study is to collect information on how Tresiba® works in real world patients with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 (type 2 diabetes). Participants will get Tresiba® as prescribed by their doctor. The study will last for around 6 to 8 months. Participants will be asked questions about their health and their diabetes treatment as part of their normal doctor's appointment.
A study on the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Supaglutide dosing weekly and bi-weekly in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The present study is part of an overarching study being conducted in Denmark at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen (SDCC) and Nordsjællands Hospital Hillerød (NOH), Steno Tech, that aims to develop and ultimately, in a randomized controlled trial (RCT), test approaches that can assist people with type 1 diabetes in obtaining optimal outcomes using CSII. Through a large-scale, questionnaire-based online survey enriched with data from national registers, this sub-study contributes to this overarching aim by exploring the importance of individual differences across a wide range of factors, including demographic, socioeconomic, health status, psychosocial and preference structures, for optimal use of CSII in people with type 1 diabetes.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind (investigator- and participant-blinded), sponsor-open, dose-escalating study of PF-07081532 in patients with Type 2 diabetes on metformin (Parts A and C). The study may also enroll non-diabetic participants with obesity (Part B). Study participants will receive an investigational product or placebo every day for up to 28 days (Part A) or up to 42 days (Part B, optional; Part C, optional). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple oral doses of PF-07081532 in participants with inadequately controlled T2DM on metformin and optionally in non-diabetic obese participants.
Hypoglycaemia or low blood glucose, and its fear are major barriers to achieving optimal glucose control. New technology, such as continuous glucose monitors (CGM), help to better identify hypoglycaemia and develop strategies to avoid it. These devices measure glucose in the skin, rather than in the blood, and provide information not only on how low glucose is, but also for how long. Recent studies showed that over half of episodes of low glucose with these systems are not recognised by people with diabetes, and even people without diabetes have sensor values that are below the current thresholds for hypoglycaemia [ low blood glucose] that we measure with traditional monitors. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the impact of symptomatic as well as asymptomatic episodes of low sensor glucose on a variety of clinical, patient-related and health economic outcomes such as mood, quality of sleep and productivity. The investigators will test different levels and durations of low sensor glucose to identify the one that best matches episodes that are symptomatic to best define hypoglycaemia using these systems. The investigators will also look at factors that influence this such as sleep or activity as well as diabetes management behaviours (such as insulin dosing, carb counting, etc). At the end of this study, the investigators will be able to provide a better definition of clinically relevant low sensor glucose readings that will help inform clinical as well as academic interpretation of CGM data.
Type 2 diabetes is associated with diabetic cognopathy, the prevalence of Alzheimer's Disease(AD) in T2DM patients is 1.5 to 2.5 times higher than the general population. Cognitive impairment seriously affects the health and quality of life of the elderly. Prevention and treatment measures for cognitive decline in persons with T2DM has not been well studied. Sodium-glucose transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, which lower serum glucose by inhibiting SGLT2-mediated glucose reabsorption in renal proximal tubules, could be neuroprotective. It was recently reported that the SGLT-2 inhibitor improved cognitive function and ameliorated oxidative stress via attenuating mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance, inflammation, and apoptosis in mice or HFD-induced obese rats, that means SGLT-2 inhibitor may provide neuroprotection in the diabetic brain. Hence, Invokana (Canagliflozin) might act as a potent dual inhibitor of AChE and SGLT2. Since the development of diabetes is associated with AD, the design of new AChE inhibitors based on antidiabetic drug scaffolds would be particularly beneficial. Moreover, the present computational study reveals that Invokana (Canagliflozin) is expected to form the basis of a future dual therapy against diabetes associated neurological disorders. The overall goal of this study is to explore the effects of SGLT2 inhibitor on the cognitive function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and make further contribution to the improvement of cognitive function.
This study will be conducted using a randomized, controlled, crossover design with three treatments. The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of diabetes-specific formula on glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
