Filter by:This is a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled (for colesevelam hydrochloride (HCl)) study in the type 2 diabetic subjects and pre-diabetic subjects. Diabetic participants will also be treated with open label, background,metformin HCl. Two-hundred sixty subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and 200 pre-diabetic subjects are planned to be be enrolled. Qualified subjects with T2DM will be randomized 1:1 to receive metformin HCl plus colesevelam HCl or metformin HCl plus placebo matching colesevelam HCl. Qualified pre-diabetic subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive colesevelam HCl or matching placebo.
A study to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the dry filled capsule (DFC) & oral compressed tablet (OCT) formulations of MK-0941-009 & to assess the effect of food on the OCT formulation.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the extent of effect of gemfibrozil on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of mitiglinide.
Primary objective: To compare long-term glycemic control and preservation of beta cell function when basal insulin or sulfonylurea is added on metformin in the early Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients Secondary objective: To assess the change of insulin resistance, microvascular complication incidence, patient satisfaction with treatment
Premise: Complete resolution of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with normalization of blood glucose and HbA1c in the abscence of medication support is possible with a surgical procedure named the "Duodenal-Jejunal Bypass (DJB)" a modification of an established duodenal switch procedure and is performed utilizing the laparoscopic approach.
The purpose of this research study is to look at concentrations of GSK189075 in blood when different long and short acting forms of the drug are taken by mouth. The results will help to decide whether a long-acting form of GSK189075 can be made. The effects of the drug on the body and safety will also be studied.
Acarbose an alphaglucosidase inhibitor changes in a complex way the transport, the digestion and the place of glucose release and absorption. As a result the intestinal milieu, the intestinal flora and the provision of enzymes in the lower small destine are changed. This should modify immune response of intestinal wall on food and its proinflammatory effects. The small intestine is the biggest immune organ of the organism. The postprandial glucose increase could have a direct effect on low-grade inflammation. Toxic effects (glucotoxicity), activation of the immune system and low grad inflammation could be reasons of developing endothelial dysfunction and affect plaque stability. The activity of the lymphocyte immune system in the intestine would be a further component, by which acarbose could take influence on diabetogenesis and atherogenesis. The question of an enterovasal axis is one of the new research concepts. As indicators of this axis considered: leucocytes, high sensitive C-reactive protein, plasminogen activator inhibitor antigen and lymphocytes sub-populations. The effect of acarbose on these parameters in the postprandial phase are not known yet.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of the DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin on the incretin effect in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of the study is to compare the insulin lispro low mixture (1, 2 or 3 daily injections) with insulin glargine (alone or with 1, 2 or 3 insulin lispro daily injections) on lowering the blood sugar level
This study proposes to evaluate the physiological effects of eating Paleolithic type diet ("hunter-gatherer's diet") on Type 2 diabetic patients. The diet essentially consists of fruits, vegetables, nuts, lean meats, excludes dairy products and grains.Subjects will be randomized into taking either ADA (American Diabetic Association) recommended diet or Paleolithic diet for 21 days. The research kitchen will provide all food items and total calories in both groups will be adjusted to maintain baseline weight. Blood and urine test will be done in the first 3 days, last 3 days and 1 month after the study period to study and compare the effects of the two diets on subjects glucose control, lipid profile and other parameters of cardiovascular physiology. We hypothesize that a palaeolithic diet in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitis, will result in improvement in above parameters and lead to improvement in glucose control with less need for diabetes medicines (either lower doses or fewer medications) to a greater extent than in subjects fed with ADA diet, without any change in weight. We also expect a beneficial effect on blood vessel function, lipid profiles and blood pressure.
