Filter by:It is a phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of P2202 in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus, inadequately controlled with a stable dose of metformin or sulfonylurea or both.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TAK-875 in Asia Pacific adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
- Rationale: Treatment with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) has been shown to reduce plasma glucose levels to a further extent when added to standard therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Given the well-known beneficial effects of GLP-1 analogues on glucose metabolism by stimulating insulin release, suppressing elevated glucagon levels, delaying gastric emptying and reducing food intake, it is anticipated that liraglutide developed by Novo Nordisk (Victoza®) also has beneficial effects in type 2 diabetes mellitus as has been proven by several trials. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with obesity and sedentary lifestyle. Obesity occurs when energy intake exceeds energy expenditure (EE) over a period of time. It has been presumed that activity energy expenditure and daily energy expenditure are lower in most people in Western societies. Increasing non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT), defined as all energy expended due to everyday activity, exclusive of volitional exercise, may be an effective way to maintain daily EE and combat overweight and obesity. One way to promote NEAT is to decrease the amount of time spent on sedentary behaviors (e.g. watching television). This leads us to hypothesize that adding NEAT to GLP-1 analogues in type 2 diabetes has an additive effect on glucose regulation, weight control and blood pressure. On the other hand, we hypothesize that a decrease in HbA1c, weight and blood pressure could add to an improved quality of life and less health care costs. Therefore, the primary purpose of this study is to determine the synergistic effect of liraglutide and activating lifestyle by increasing NEAT on glucose metabolism and weight. First line therapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus currently consists of lifestyle changes with metformin. When failure of this regime occurs, sulfonylurea derivates and/or thiazolidinediones can be added. One third of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus fail with this regimen after 5 years of monotherapy, and nowadays GLP-1 analogues can be added to prevent deterioration of glycaemic control. However, comparison of this strategy with NEAT has not been performed and the synergistic effect of combination of GLP-1 with increasing NEAT has not been investigated. Treatment with GLP-1 analogues in combination with NEAT could theoretically overcome all shortcomings of current treatment strategies of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Objective: - Primary objectives - To determine the change in HbA1c from baseline and end of treatment (26 weeks) and end of follow-up (52 weeks) after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT - To determine the change in weight from baseline and end of treatment (26 weeks) and end of follow-up (52 weeks) after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT - Secondary objectives - To assess the change in blood pressure from baseline and end of treatment (26 weeks) and end of follow-up (52 weeks) after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT - To assess the change in quality of life from baseline and end of treatment (26 weeks) and end of follow-up (52 weeks) after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT - To assess the change in NEAT from baseline and end of treatment (26 weeks) and end of follow-up (52 weeks) after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT - To asses the health-care related costs at baseline, after 26 weeks of treatment with liraglutide versus liraglutide with NEAT, and after 52 weeks (end of follow-up) Study design: Randomized controlled intervention study - Study population: Men and women with type 2 diabetes mellitus, insufficiënt glycaemic control during maximum (tolerable) dose monotherapy with metformin or a sulfonylurea derivate or during combination therapy with metformin and a sulfonylurea derivate or a thiazolinedione, HbA1c above 7,0%, age between 40 - 75 years old, BMI above 25 kg/m2 Intervention: One group receives once daily subcutaneously liraglutide 1.8mg added to standard anti-diabetic care and the other group receives once daily subcutaneously liraglutide 1.8mg added to standard anti-diabetic care and an activating lifestyle by increasing NEAT Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study parameter is the percent change in HbA1c and weight. Secondary study parameters are change in blood pressure, quality of life as measured using EQ-5D and SF-36 questionnaire, NEAT as measured using an activPAL™ accelerometer and cost-effectiveness analysis.
The purpose of this study is to assess the multiple rising dose safety/tolerability and pharmacokinetics of MK-5823 in overweight/obese participants who are healthy and overweight/obese participants with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) is a disease caused by neurogenic (concerning the nervous system), vascular, mechanic and metabolic factors, which are further complicated by an impairment of the immune system and a corresponding increase in the risk for infections. Results from clinical trials about the efficacy of interventions aimed at reducing the number of patient-relevant end points are of limited comparability due to the heterogenity of patient characteristics. By their very nature, randomized clinical trials (RCT) can only focus on a limited section of the wide range of possible intervention regimes. In clinical practice, however, a number of patients with dfs will never have been part of a clinical trial. Furthermore, there are only very few contemporary registers for this indication from which conclusions with regard to the comparative merits of different therapeutic strategies may be drawn. The register was conceived to find out to which extent RCT patients are representative for the overall patient collective with dfs and critical limb ischemia and to evaluate the therapeutic success of other treatment strategies. An RCT to assess the efficacy of urokinase versus placebo is imbedded in the register.
This protocol is being conducted to determine the mechanisms responsible for insulin resistance, obesity and type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of Saxagliptin, 5-hydroxy Saxagliptin, and Metformin in pediatric subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following oral administration of Saxagliptin and Metformin XR fixed dose combination tablet and co-administration of Saxagliptin and Glucophage® (Metformin) IR tablets
This two-phase study was to examine if 16 weeks of treatment with sitagliptin in combination with atorvastatin reduces hemoglobin A1C (A1C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from baseline more than atorvastatin alone and sitagliptin alone, respectively. Following a single-blind placebo run-in period, participants were to be randomized to one of three treatment arms (sitagliptin monotherapy, atorvastatin monotherapy, or sitagliptin plus atorvastatin) for 16 weeks (Phase A). During Phase B of the study (Weeks 16 through 54), participants were to receive either sitagliptin plus atorvastatin or glimepiride plus atorvastatin. The primary hypotheses were that after 16 weeks of treatment, sitagliptin in combination with atorvastatin reduces A1C from baseline more than atorvastatin alone, and that atorvastatin in combination with sitagliptin lowers LDL-C from baseline more than sitagliptin alone.
Individuals with a family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are known to be at greater risk for the disease, and studies have shown that how the body responds to insulin, how the muscle creates energy, and the amount of fat stored inside skeletal muscle are often different in these individuals at a young age compared to people without a family history of the disease. The tendency to develop T2DM is influenced strongly by genetics; however, exposure to the surrounding environment may also play a role. The exposure to a diabetic environment while in the womb represents an altered nutritional exposure (high levels of circulating sugar, or glucose) that may affect how tissues important in regulating energy metabolism, such as the pancreas, liver, and skeletal muscle, develop. the purpose of this study is to measure sensitivity to insulin, energy expenditure, fat content of the abdomen and skeletal muscle function in young adult sibling pairs who were raised together but who are discordant for intrauterine exposure to diabetes (i.e., the mother did ot have diabetes during pregnancy with the older sibling, but did have diabetes during pregnancy with the younger sibling).
