Filter by:This study is designed to compare the effects of twice-daily exenatide plus oral antidiabetic (OAD) agents and twice-daily placebo plus OAD with respect to glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), in patients with type 2 diabetes who experience inadequate glycemic control with OAD alone.
This Phase 3, open-label, multicenter study is designed to compare the effects of exenatide and insulin glargine (Lantus® injection) on beta-cell function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus using metformin.
The purposes of this study are to determine: 1. If patients taking insulin lispro LM with metformin will have better overall control of their blood sugar than patients taking a long acting insulin comparator with metformin. 2. If there is a difference in the way the two treatments affect blood sugar control before and after meals and at night. 3. If there is a difference in the insulin dose required with the two treatments. 4. If there is a difference in the numbers of times patients experience low blood sugar with the two treatments. 5. If there is a difference in the effect on patients's body weight.
This study is a prospective, 2-arm, randomized controlled trial to determine whether glycemic control, achieved through intensification of treatment, is effective in preventing clinical macrovascular complications in patients with type 2 DM who are no longer responsive to oral agents alone. The study consists of a two-year accrual period and five years of follow-up (7 years total) of 1700 patients across 20 centers. We have powered the study to detect a 21% reduction in the primary event rate. Additional study goals are to determine whether the expenditures, discomfort, and adverse effects associated with intensive intervention are justified in terms of their clinical benefits, considering both macrovascular and microvascular complications.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the ingestion of the herbal dietary supplement Ginkgo biloba extract has any effect on the efficacy of three classes of diabetic medications - (Glucotrol, Glucophage and Actose). Additionally, the study will examine the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract on pancreatic insulin production in non-diabetic subjects between the ages of 20 and 75 years old.
