Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate pulmonary function test (PFT) sub-study in interested subjects from studies MKC-TI-161, MKC-TI-162 and MKC-TI-166. 100 Type I and 100 Type II diabetics will be enrolled. Each subject will undergo 6 PFT assessments over the course of the parent study.
The purpose of the study is to determine if by performing surgery we can cure Type II Diabetes. The surgical procedures: 1. a sleeve gastrectomy, cutting out a portion of the stomach, which provides restriction of caloric intake and rapid gastric emptying. 2. ileal transposition which involves repositioning a 150cm segment of the ileum into the jejunum causing improved glucose homeostasis.
This protocol is designed to gather a small amount of blood for extraction of DNA for the study of the genetic basis of diabetes. The study population will include individuals with known diabetes, and controls without diabetes. Investigators aim to understand the genetics of diabetes, and will use the cells and serum from this blood to perform genotyping and gene expression studies of individuals with diabetes and relevant controls.
Both vitamin D deficiency and type II DM/prediabetes are highly prevalent. Vitamin D status has been negatively associated with the presence of type II DM and glycemic control. A cause-effect relationship between vitamin D deficiency and the development of type II DM has not been established. The investigators plan to conduct a 2 year, double blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial on the effect of vitamin D3 supplement on the incidence of type II DM in high risk individuals.
Primary objective of the study is to test whether an intensified insulin therapy incorporating the target of normal fasting glucose (<5.5 mmol/L) and glycated hemoglobin <6.5% is able to halve the incidence of angiographic restenosis at 6 months (expected rate 45%, to be reduced at 15%) after peripheral angioplasty compared with standard care to achieve a glycated hemoglobin <7.0% in patients with type 2 diabetes and limb ischemia. Secondary objectives include the identification of markers associated with, and predictive of, restenosis and the investigation of the underlying pathophysiological background, with specific focus on the role of nitric oxide (NO), mechanisms of endothelial activation/apoptosis, inflammation and matrix remodeling risk profiles, candidate gene polymorphisms and endothelial progenitor cells evaluation. Methodology: This is a randomized, open-label, clinical trial comparing two regimens of insulin therapy having as an outcome measure the incidence of angiographic restenosis at 6 months after peripheral angioplasty. Seventy consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes and peripheral arterial disease undergoing peripheral angiography and subsequent angioplastic procedure will be studied. Patients will be treated by intensive insulin therapy, based on three pre-prandial administrations of regular insulin or short acting insulin analogues combined with the long-acting insulin analogue glargine or standard care based on once-daily insulin and oral antidiabetics agents. Patients randomized to the intensive insulin therapy arm will be educated and followed up with daily measurements of fasting glucose and weekly phone contacts with the target of fasting glucose <5.5 mmol/L (99 mg/dl) to obtain glycated hemoglobin <6.5%. The control arm will be followed to achieve a target of glycated hemoglobin <7.0%. Life style recommendations, including diet and physical activity program, will be the same for the two arms. All patients will undergo three visits with physical examination and blood sampling, at baseline and at 2, 4 and 6 months after angioplasty. Moreover, patients on normal fasting glucose arm will be monitored by phone on weekly basis in order to test their adherence to therapeutic target.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Dehypotin® in the Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus or Cardiovascular Disease. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 arms, either Dehypotin® or placebo, and will receive the diet advisement throughout the study.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that dutogliptin/PHX1149T is safe and tolerable.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the improvement in skeletal muscle energetic capacity, endothelial dysfunction and glycemic control induced by physical training in 20 sedentary patients with a type 2 diabetes.The protocol consists in a physical training program with 3 sessions of 30 minutes per week during six consecutive weeks. A skeletal muscle biopsy, a cardiac and humeral artery ultrasounds, a glycemic and tensional holters will be performed before and at the end of the physical training program.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of rifampin on the pharmacokinetics of dapagliflozin
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of dutogliptin over 52 weeks.
