Filter by:Since diabetic platelets are characterized by an enhanced turnover rate, it may be hypothesized that an increase in the frequency, rather than the dose, of drug administration may be a more effective strategy to inhibit platelet reactivity in diabetic patients as this may enable COX-1 blockade of newly generated platelets. However, how different dosing regimens impact the pharmacodynamic effects of aspirin selectively in diabetes mellitus has been poorly explored. Therefore, the aim of the present pilot investigation was to evaluate how increasing the frequency of aspirin administration, remaining within the daily recommended therapeutic doses, affects antiplatelet responsiveness in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of vildagliptin/metformin in patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with metformin 1,000 mg/day.
The study will assess glycemic variability and optimized glycemic control in T2DM patients treated with a DPP-4 inhibitor as add-on therapy to metformin.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect the investigative drug has on glycemic control in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and secondary hypogonadism
The primary objectives of this study are to determine if sitagliptin treatment is not inferior to that of glimepiride as measured by the change in baseline hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) after 30 weeks of treatment, and if sitagliptin treatment results in a lower incidence of symptomatic hypoglycemia compared to that of glimepiride. The study will also evaluate if sitagliptin treatment, compared to glimepiride results in improvements in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels, and plasma lipid levels after 30 weeks of treatment. Participants will be randomized to either sitagliptin or glimepiride treatment after eligibility for study participation is determined during screening and washout study phases. Participants and study staff will not know to which treatment group they have been randomized (double-blind design). The duration of study participation will be up to 40 weeks (with 9 clinic visits). This will include a screening phase (Visit 1 to Visit 2) of 2 weeks maximum; a 6-week (Visits 2 to 3) oral antihyperglycemic agent (AHA) wash-out phase (for those who have been taking a AHA prior to the study); a placebo run-in phase (Visits 3 to 4), followed by up to 30 weeks of treatment with study medication.
This protocol is intended to compare the effects of both a solid (tablet) and liquid oral dosage form of LX4211 in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate whether exenatide, a type 2 diabetes medication, will improve the function of the innermost part of the arterial wall called the endothelium after a fat-enriched meal and to determine how this occurs. The results of this study will help to determine and understand a novel action of this group of diabetes medications based on the action of naturally occuring gut substances called incretins. This may have a significant impact on cardiovascular health in patients with early and longstanding diabetes.
The purpose of this pilot trial is to determine whether an intensive treatment with insulin glargine, metformin, acarbose and lifestyle can normalize blood glucose levels in patients with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus when compared to standard diabetes care.
This study will evaluate whether the addition of sitagliptin reduces hemoglobin A1C (A1C) more than the addition of placebo for participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on a steady dose of acarbose. The primary hypothesis is that the addition of sitagliptin 100 mg once daily (q.d.) reduces A1C more than the addition of placebo in participants with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on acarbose monotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the burden of hypoglycemia and identify unmet need related to the management of hypoglycemia among Type 2Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients on OADs and/or insulin. This is an observational study which will identify patients with T2DM in an administrative claims database and will link claims data with results of patient and physician surveys concerning hypoglycemia.
