Filter by:To assess the safety and efficacy of chronic therapy with KRP-104, a novel DPP-IV inhibitor, in patients with Type 2 Diabetes on stable metformin therapy. In addition, an estimate of how much of the HbA1c response is attributable to nocturnal coverage will be explored.
In this trial, it will be studied whether early addition of the long acting insulin analogue Glargine is capable of increasing the number and differentiation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in patients with type 2 diabetes, which can be seen as a marker of vascular regenerative potential and cardiovascular risk. In addition, the effect of Glargine on microvascular function will be studied. This will be done using laser Doppler measurements of the skin; in addition, MRI of the heart will be performed which is capable of quantifying the perfusion reserve of the myocardium and additional functional aspects of ventricular function. A beneficial effect of early addition of bedtime Glargine on EPC and vascular as well as myocardial function in this study might argue for a change in the therapeutic approach in type 2 diabetes and possibly improve the cardiovascular outcome in patients affected.
The aim of this study is to clarify whether lifestyle intervention provided to people with high type 2 diabetes risk will lower the cumulative incidence of diabetes. Furthermore, the aim is to study the effect of lifestyle intervention on cardiovascular risk.
The purpose of this study is to explore the recurrence risk of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease after different antidiabetic drug therapy (glipizide or metformin) by using an double-blind, randomized, parallel control and prospective study The end point of this study is: 1. follow up 3yr 2. recurrence of cardiovascular event 3. death caused by other reasons such as stroke, uremia, blindness and amputation
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of XOMA 052 in subjects with stable Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D). The study is a dose-escalation study designed to evaluate route of administration (intravenous or subcutaneous), doses, and dosing regimens for future studies.
The overall objective of the Dietary Protein and Insulin Sensitivity Study is to test the hypothesis that increased protein in a diet with reduced carbohydrate (35% energy) can ameliorate insulin resistance in the absence of weight loss, and that this effect is independent of saturated fat content. Moreover, we will test whether such diets result in beneficial changes in total LDL cholesterol, small, dense LDL, and HDL cholesterol that are also independent of saturated fat intake.
The hypothesis of this study is that bed rest in diabetic patients will result in a deterioration of metabolic control (primarily glucose). Specific aims: 1. To determine the change in metabolic control in type 2 diabetic individuals when three days of bed rest is compared to three days of activity; 2. To determine the rate of progression of the deterioration in metabolic control and the magnitude of the decrease; 3. To assess whether the anticipated deterioration of metabolic control has effects on several parameters of glucose metabolism, including hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia; 4. To determine the effects of bed rest on surrogate markers of atherosclerosis, such as plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI1), C-reactive protein (CRP), and homocysteine. 5. To compare the effects of 48 hours of bed rest on orthostatic responses in type 2 diabetic patients, and healthy non-diabetics. 6. To make recommendations to the diabetic community to prevent metabolic deterioration during a 3 day hospitalization.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single doses of BMS-686117
This trial will assess the efficacy of CRx-401 in lowering FPG levels in patients taking metformin to treat their diabetes. In addition, this initial trial will evaluate insulin resistance (HOMA-IR index), HgbA1c levels, glycated protein, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, and total cholesterol, as well as the safety of CRx-401.
We designed this prospective, randomized control study to compare the benefits between the insulin therapy and OADs after correction of the glucose toxicity with a short period of intensive insulin therapy.
