Filter by:This Phase III clinical trial will examine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the addition of MK-0431/ONO-5435 to Japanese patients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus who have inadequate glycemic control on diet/exercise therapy and rapid-acting insulin secretagogue monotherapy.
The objective of this study is to investigate the different mechanisms by which Gastric Bypass (GBP), laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) affect glucose control. We wish to understand the role of weight loss versus changes in gut peptides in the short and long term in morbidly obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus after GBP, LAGB or VSG. The 2 surgical groups will be compared at 10% equivalent weight loss and at after surgery in terms of gut hormones levels, insulin secretion and glucose control.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pancreas imaging properties of 18F-AV-133.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of escalating multiple doses over 2 weeks of CAT 1004 compared to placebo in patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2D). Secondary objectives include evaluation of the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of escalating multiple doses of CAT-1004 in patients with T2D.
Aim: The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of glimepiride(G) and metformin(M) on vascular reactivity, haemostatic factors and glucose and lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A prospective study will be performed in 20 uncontrolled patients previously treated with dietary intervention. Participants will randomized into M (750 to 2500 mg/day) or G (1 to 8 mg/day) therapy. After 4 months, the patients will be crossed-over with no washout period to the alternative treatment for an additional 4-month period on similar dosage schedule. - The following variables were assessed before (basal values) and after 4 months of each treatment period: 1. Hormonal and metabolic determinations: fasting plasma glucose, insulin, catecholamine, lipid profile and HbA1 levels. 2. Haemostatic factors: t-PA antigen and activity, PAI-1 antigen and activity, platelet aggregation, fibrinogen and plasminogen levels. 3. Cardiovascular evaluation: flow indexes of carotid and brachial arteries. Also, at the end of each treatment period, a 12-hour metabolic profile including measurements of glucose, insulin, glucagon, proinsulin and triglycerides levels at fasting and every 2 hours (7:00 am to 7:00 pm)will be done
Emerging evidence suggests that vitamin D [25-hydroxyvitamin D; 25(OH)D] may play a role in the etiology of type 2 diabetes. Vitamin D levels are lower in those with type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) compared with those with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). In addition, a few prospective studies have shown a significant inverse association of baseline serum 25(OH)D with incident diabetes. To date, however, the exact mechanisms through which vitamin D affects diabetes risk are not yet fully known, particularly whether vitamin D plays a role in insulin resistance (IR) and/or b-cell dysfunction, the main pathophysiological disorders underlying type 2 diabetes. So, the investigators plan to examine the prospective associations of baseline vitamin D [25-hydroxyvitamin D; 25(OH)D] with insulin resistance (IR), b-cell function, and glucose homeostasis in subjects at risk for type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes(both types) are recognized by high levels of glucagon in the circulation. Glucagon is known to increase blood glucose, and might therefore contribute to the respective diseases. Under some circumstances the gut hormone GLP-1 inhibits the glucagon secretion. The investigators aim to identify the impact of GLP-1 on the glucagon secretion, at increasing blood glucose levels in healthy subjects, in patients with type 2 diabetes, and in patients with type 1 diabetes. The investigators think that the effect of GLP-1 on the glucagon secretion might be dependent of blood glucose levels.
This study is designed to develop and test a smoking cessation intervention for smokers with Type 2 diabetes.
This is a 24-week multi-center, double-blind, randomized, exploratory study of bardoxolone methyl treatment in 18 patients with Stage 3 CKD (eGFR greater than or equal to 30.0 to less than 60.0 ml/min/1.73m2) and diabetes to ensure at least 15 patients complete the study for evaluation of the primary endpoints.
Background: Preclinical blood pressure (BP) data from studies of hypoglycemic effects of liraglutide treatment (the LEAD program), revealed a significant antihypertensive potential. The time course and the mechanism behind this effect are unknown. Objectives: To evaluate the time course of the antihypertensive effect of liraglutide treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes Design: Open-label study with intervention and subsequent washout period Patient Population: 35 hypertensive (SBP ≥130 mm Hg and DBP ≥80 mmHg) patients with type 2 diabetes. Intervention: All patients will be treated with liraglutide 0.6 mg once daily for 7 days and will then be titrated to 1.2 mg once daily for 14 days and then titrated to 1.8 mg once daily for 4 weeks. This is followed by a washout period of 3 weeks without liraglutide treatment. Endpoints: 24-hour blood pressure, natriuresis, extra cellular volume (ECV
