Filter by:Glucose metabolism disorders (GMD) can be present in an overt and a subclinical way. They have negative impact in survival of patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Their prevalence has not been determined in compensated cirrhotic patients.
This study is to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single ascending oral doses of PF-04991532 in Japanese healthy subjects. The secondary objective is to investigate the pharmacokinetics and safety of single ascending oral doses of PF-04991532 in Western healthy subjects and to compare the pharmacokinetics between Japanese and Western healthy subjects.
This study aimed to examine the prevalence of glucose metabolism disorders (GMD)in the patients with coronary artery disease and the relationship between different GMDs and coronary artery disease (CAD).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PF-04856883 (CVX-096) in adult female subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus on high dose of metformin.
The main aim of this study is to investigate to what extent it is possible to reach normal glucose metabolism and optimal cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor levels with early lifestyle interventions in people at high risk of type 2 diabetes compared with those who receive standard therapy (usual care) only. The project will show the effect of these interventions for the first time in people of low socio-economic levels living in a Caribbean environment.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of PF-04991532 following multiple (14 days) escalating oral doses in patient wtih type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonism and renin inhibition on glucose metabolism in humans.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary food effect of PF-04991532 following single escalating oral doses in healthy adult subjects.
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the ability of the body to regulate glucose (sugar). When glucose levels are low, the liver can make glucose to increase levels in the body. This important process is called endogenous glucose production (EGP). Previous studies suggest that the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain, helps to coordinate this process by communicating with the liver through potassium channels. Control of EGP can be impaired in people with type 2 diabetes, which may contribute to the high levels of glucose seen in these individuals. The purpose of this study is to understand how activating these potassium channels in the control centers of the brain with a medication called diazoxide might inhibit the amount of glucose made by the liver. This is particularly important for people with diabetes who have very high production of glucose, which in turn causes hyperglycemia (high levels of sugar in the blood) that leads to diabetes complications.
The overall objective of LUCHAR Specific Aims 4.1 and 4.2 is to assess the additional contribution of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk markers to traditional biomedical risk factors in the prediction of pre-clinical CVD. Specific Aim 4.3 will test the impact of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on risk markers and pre-clinical markers of CVD in Hispanic patients. Specific Aim 4.3: Conduct a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of the effect of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on vascular function as measured by brachial artery reactivity (BAR) and on circulating inflammatory markers. Hypotheses: 1. Daily omega-3 fatty acid supplementation will improve vascular function in subjects at high risk for CVD. 2. Daily omega-3 fatty acid supplementation will reduce inflammatory protein panel scores in subjects at high risk for CVD.
