Filter by:Liraglutide, a GLP-1-analogue has been shown to be an effective treatment option in patients on oral anti-diabetes therapy with beneficial effects on both glycaemic control and weight. However, to date there are no clinical trials of liraglutide added to insulin therapy, a population of patients generally having worse glycaemic control and weight gain. In clinical guidelines, use of multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) is usually the final therapeutic option for type 2 diabetic patients. The primary study aim is to evaluate whether the addition of liraglutide, compared to placebo, reduces the HbA1c level for overweight and obese type 2 diabetes patients with inadequate glycaemic control treated with multiple daily insulin injections (MDI). MDI is defined as treatment with any basal insulin combined with separate meal time insulin injections before the main meals, i.e. an insulin regimen with premixed insulin is not considered as MDI. The planned study duration is 24 weeks and includes 120 patients at 15 centers in Sweden.
The aim of this study is to determine whether vitamin D supplementation in overweight/obese individuals with vitamin D deficiency can improve insulin secretion and/or insulin resistance by decreasing subclinical inflammation. Results of the present study may help to identify new strategies to prevent type 2 diabetes in high-risk groups (i.e. overweight and obese individuals, and individuals with a strong family history of diabetes). Hypothesis: That increasing plasma 25(OH)D concentrations in healthy individuals at risk for type 2 diabetes with low vitamin D levels through vitamin D supplementation, will improve insulin sensitivity and also insulin secretion by reducing the underlying sub-clinical chronic inflammation. Aims: To establish whether 16-week vitamin D supplementation given to healthy individuals with low vitamin D levels will: 1. improve insulin sensitivity (in vivo and tissue) and/or insulin secretory function 2. determine whether this relationship is mediated by a reduced chronic inflammation
The investigators seek to examine the metabolic changes that occur amongst obese and lean pregnant women with normal glycemic control as well as pregnant women with diabetes mellitus (gestational diabetes and pre-existing type 2 diabetes mellitus) compared to non-pregnant age matched controls. Given the adaptive tendency of the maternal body to use alternative energy sources such as ketones and free fatty acids rather than glucose and to shunt glucose and amino acids to the fetus, the investigators hypothesize that the amino acid and fatty acid profile will be reflective of this adaptive change and that maternal insulin resistance will result in alterations in this pattern in both the plasma and CSF. Furthermore, the investigators also hypothesize that maternal degrees of insulin resistance will also be reflected in CSF hormonal changes.
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3b Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Saxagliptin Added to Insulin Monotherapy or to Insulin in Combination with Metformin in Chinese Subjects in China with Type 2 Diabetes Who Have Inadequate Glycaemic Control on Insulin Alone or on Insulin in Combination with Metformin
The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity is increasing at an alarming rate both nationally and worldwide. Accumulating evidence suggests that serum cholecalciferol levels may be inversely related to the prevalence of diabetes, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. However, to demonstrate a causal relation between vitamin D and glucose metabolism, evidence from randomized and adequately powered placebo-controlled intervention trials is needed.The trials available on the effect of Vitamin D supplementation are not conclusive. Hence, the purpose of this study was to conduct a double-blind randomized trial in Vitamin D deficient obese type 2 diabetic Emirati population to clarify the effect of vitamin D supplementation on glycemic control and obesity parameters.
This is a study of co-administration of ertugliflozin (MK-8835/PF-04971729) and sitagliptin given together or alone along with metformin in participants with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. The primary hypothesis of this study is that ertugliflozin 15 mg daily plus sitagliptin 100 mg daily provides greater hemoglobin A1C (A1C)-lowering compared with sitagliptin 100 mg daily alone.
The aim of the study was to assess the effect of an individualized intervention based on cell phones to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes attending Epidemiology Research Unit in Cuernavaca, Morelos. Mexico
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of incretin-based antidiabetic therapies (DPP-4 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists) on cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and renal system and to detail the mechanisms underlying their action in these systems.
The main purpose of the trial is to determine the effect of a study drug known as LY2409021 on blood pressure and pulse rate in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) when compared to placebo. The study has two periods. Each participant will receive LY2409021 or placebo in each period. At least 4 weeks will pass between periods. The study will last about 23 weeks for each participant. Participants may remain on stable dose metformin, as prescribed by their personal physician.
To evaluate the impact of the Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System on glycaemic control (HbA1c) compared to Self Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG) testing using a randomised controlled study design in adults with Type 2 diabetes using insulin.
