Bariatric surgery is efficient in both inducing adequate weight loss and the control of glycemia in obese patients affected by Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Despite growing evidence suggesting that early performance of bariatric surgery on obese patients with T2DM offers the best opportunity to reach and maintain a remission of diabetes, no randomized clinical trials (RCT) have evaluated its efficiency in patients with new T2DM diagnosis. The aim of this RCT is to compare bariatric surgery, and in particular Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG), with conventional medical therapy (CMT) in patients with new T2DM diagnosis that are obese (Body Mass Index, BMI of between 30 and 42 Kg/m2), to be recruited at two Italian diabetology centres (Terni and Rome). The main objective of the present RCT is to investigate the efficacy of LSG as compared with CMT in inducing and maintaining both a resolution of T2DM (defined as HbA1c levels ≤6.0%, without active pharmacologic therapy or ongoing procedures) and the remission of T2DM through the evaluation of the criteria provided by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) at maximum follow-up of 6 years. The effects of the two treatments in terms of weight loss and the quality of life of the patient will also be taken into consideration. Any positive results of this study will include preventing microvascular and macrovascular complications connected with diabetes, without the necessity to take medication, and at the same time the loss of excess body weight and improved quality of life (QOL).
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III clinical study that will enroll approximately 564 T2DM patients who before screening have inadequately controlled blood glucose (7.0%≤HbA1c≤10.5% at randomization)despite at least 8 weeks of metformin monotherapy at stable doses(≥1500 mg/day).
This is a phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study planning to include approximately 387 T2DM patients who have received at least 8 weeks of treatment with diet control and exercise; have not received any glucose-lowering agents within the 8 weeks prior to screening; and have inadequately controlled blood glucose.The subjects would receive PEX168 or placebo monotherapy for 52weeks in total.
The purpose of this study is examine the effect of fat tissue-released miRNA on skeletal muscle and if abnormal fat tissue-released miRNA contributes to insulin resistance in obese individuals. This information will be important for our understanding of how the body's sugar metabolism is regulated and why people who are obese become insulin resistant and are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
This is a 2-arm, single-blind, crossover, placebo-controlled clinical study, with 24 weeks of therapy to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DbXell in improving metabolic control in patients with Type 2 Diabetes that is mildly uncontrolled, defined as HbA1c above target but less than 8.0% on their current conventional therapy.
The objective of this study is to assess whether a structured exercise program compared to routine recommendation for exercise has any positive impact on disease outcome in patients with type 2 diabetes. This study aims to assess whether a structured exercise program has an impact on the following determinants of the disease in type 2 diabetes: HbA1C, blood pressure, lipids, body mass index and waist circumference. It also aims to assess the compliance and retention of patients with type 2 diabetes in a structured exercise program.
Objectives: Primary Objectives - To investigate the safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of AZP- 531 in healthy volunteers. - To investigate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple ascending doses of AZP-531 in overweight/obese volunteers. - To investigate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple ascending doses of AZP-531 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Secondary Objectives • To determine the plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of AZP-531 after single and multiple doses. Exploratory Objectives • To obtain exploratory data on the effects of AZP-531 on the pharmacodynamic (PD) markers of blood glucose, interstitial glucose, insulin, and plasma acylated ghrelin (AG) and unacylated ghrelin (UAG)
Low blood sugar can negatively affect how blood vessels function, and this can lead to an increase in the risk for heart attacks, strokes and other problems related to the stiffening and blockage of blood vessels. The purpose of this study is to learn if and how glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1; a naturally occurring hormone in the gut) changes the effects that low blood sugar levels have on blood vessels.
This observational study is designed to determine how sugars, lipids and proteins in breast milk vary among mothers; is affected by maternal diet, health and microbiota and vary over the course of lactation. Additionally, the study is designed to determine how the structure and composition of complex milk sugars, maternal health status and diet influence the development and maintenance of infant gut microflora.
