Filter by:The objectives of this clinical trial are to compare the effects of exenatide once weekly and insulin glargine on blood glucose control, body weight, lipids, safety, and tolerability.
To characterize the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of 2.5 mg saxagliptin administered twice daily with meals to healthy subjects
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the South Beach Diet and products compared to the American Diabetic Association Diabetes Meal Plan.
To assess the potential pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions of bumetanide and dapagliflozin following multiple doses of 1 mg bumetanide and 10 mg dapagliflozin in healthy subjects
This study will demonstrate the bioequivalence of metformin after single dose administration of sitagliptin/metformin 50/500 mg fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet and concomitant administration of single doses of sitagliptin 50 mg and metformin 500 mg as individual tablets after consumption of a high-fat meal.
Primary objective of this study is to confirm the efficacy of HOE490 O (glimepiride/metformin) compared with placebo on top of glimepiride in HbA1c change. Secondary objectives of this study is to evaluate the safety of HOE490 O (glimepiride/metformin) compared with placebo on top of glimepiride as well as other efficacy parameters
To investigate the effect of multiple doses of SLV337 on the pharmacokinetics of simvastatin and simvastatin acid when co-administered in healthy male subjects
The purpose of this clinical trial is to test safety and tolerability of a vaccine targeting Interleukin-1 beta in patients with type 2 diabetes.
GLP-1 is an incretin hormone which is discharged from the intestines after food intake. The hormone is known for its powerful insulinotropic and trophic effects on the beta cells in the pancreas and is currently used as an anti-diabetic agent in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). GLP-1 receptors are widely distributed including on the endothelial cells in both coronary and skeletal muscle circulation and on the myocardium. GLP-1-receptor studies on knock-out mice have shown that they exhibit a reduced myocardial contractility and reduced diastolic heart function. GLP-1 also shows beneficial cardiovascular effects in patients with acute myocardial infarctions and dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy in that the left ventricle function and endothelial dysfunction improves after GLP-1 treatment via insulin-independent mechanisms. Preclinical studies indicate that exogenous administrated GLP-1 in physiological concentrations can improve perfusion but this has never been tested in humans. It is also unknown whether GLP-1 can directly increase the glucose/metabolite uptake across both cardiac and skeletal muscle in an insulin independent manner. Unpublished studies do however indicate that the improvement in the cardiovascular system is largely dependent upon a high blood glucose level and only partially dependent upon the antiglycemic effects of GLP-1. In the proposed studies the investigators wish to examine the physiological role of GLP-1 receptor stimulation both with regard to perfusion, metabolic improvement as well as cardiac inotropic. These studies will be conducted in both healthy and in T2DM patients.
The study included 102 overweight type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with a body mass index (BMI) of more than 25 in an open label study. They were advised intensive life style modification which was reinforced at each follow-up visit. In addition they were prescribed extended release metformin (XR) in a gradually increasing tolerable dose, starting with 0.5g twice a day after meals. In addition, hypertension and dyslipidemia, when present, were treated with appropriate recommended drugs. Those who completed a satisfactory regular follow-up for at least 12 months or more were then analyzed for changes in their anthropometric measurements and glycemic control.
