Filter by:To evaluate vildagliptin as compared to gliclazide, given in combination with metformin in Muslim patients with type 2 diabetes fasting during Ramadan.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of omarigliptin compared to placebo in participants with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. The primary hypothesis is that after 24 weeks, the addition of treatment with omarigliptin provides greater reduction in hemoglobin A1c (A1C) than placebo.
Due to overweight and unhealthy lifestyle the number of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is increasing. Although in early phases the disease might be successfully treated by lifestyle change patients lack for motivation. Instead of increasing anti-diabetic medication a highly motivational system with low inhibition threshold is needed. Therefore, the investigators analyzed if regular use of the interactive videogame Wii Fit Plus over 12 weeks is able to improve HbA1c and weight in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an increasingly common and serious condition. Studies show that low vitamin D levels are associated with increased diabetes risk and that vitamin D may protect against diabetes by reducing chronic inflammation and improving insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. However, no studies have been able to show that vitamin D actually reduces post-prandial blood glucose levels, the most clinically relevant marker of diabetes. Previously the investigators have shown that cheddar cheese and low-fat cheese can be fortified with high levels of vitamin D and that this cheese is at least as a effective as vitamin D supplements in raising blood vitamin D levels. The main purpose of this study is to see whether vitamin D enriched cheese can improve oral glucose tolerance (reduce blood glucose 2 hours after consuming a drink containing 75g sugar) in people who have low vitamin D levels and are at risk for developing T2D. Other aims are to determine the effect of vitamin D may on insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion, markers of inflammation, blood cholesterol levels, and safety markers such as urinary calcium excretion.
Study Design: Part 1.Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, escalating single-dose design with Healthy volunteers Part 2.Open , sequential, two-period, single dose study with type 1 diabetes Part 3.Open, sequential, two-period, single dose study with type 2 diabetes
Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus are major health problems which are becoming a burden both for patients and health systems alike. The surgical and medical treatments available for these conditions have improved significantly in the last two decades. The investigators do not however know how these treatments compare to each other and how they act in the body to cause weight loss and diabetes improvements. The studies of this experiment are complementary to each other. They aim to answer related questions and will allow us to study how these treatments work and eventually develop safer and more effective therapies for obesity and diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of omarigliptin (MK-3102), dosed once-weekly in participants with T2DM who have inadequate glycemic control on diet and exercise. The primary hypothesis is that after 24 weeks, treatment with omarigliptin compared with placebo provides greater reduction in hemoglobin A1c (A1C).
To assess the effect of adding acarbose or repaglinide or gliclazide to sitagliptin plus metformin, compared to adding glimepiride, on glycemic improvements in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) participants who require the addition of a third oral anti-hyperglycemic agent (OAHA) according to China Guideline for Type 2 Diabetes. The three co-primary hypotheses are that after 24 weeks of treatment in phase 2, the mean change from baseline in hemoglobin A1c (A1c) in participants receiving either (1)acarbose or (2)repaglinide or (3)gliclazide added to sitagliptin and metformin combination is non-inferior to that of participants receiving glimepiride added to sitagliptin and metformin combination. The study would be declared successful if at least one of the three primary hypotheses was met.
This study will examine the safety and efficacy of the addition of omarigliptin in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus with inadequate glycemic control on metformin and glimepiride. The primary hypothesis is that after 24 weeks, the addition of treatment with omarigliptin provides a greater reduction in hemoglobin A1c (A1C) compared with the addition of placebo.
A clinical trial to compare the patient outcomes from usual nutrition therapy by dietitians in India to patient outcomes from guideline-based Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT).
