Filter by:This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar (0.5 and 1 mg) in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on diet and lifestyle advice alone during the run-in period. The study comprises a 6-week single-blind placebo run-in period followed by 24-week treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period. The study design of GALLANT 2 is identical to GALLANT 22; the blinded study data from GALLANT 2 will be transferred to the GALLANT 22 database and will be analyzed together with the data from GALLANT 22 clinical study.
This is a 24-week randomized double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar (0.5 mg and 1 mg) given as add-on therapy to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on optimized metformin treatment and on diet/lifestyle advice during the titration and run-in period. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, 6 week placebo metformin titration period, 2-week single-blind run-in period, followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period
This is a 24-week randomized double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar (0.5 mg and 1 mg) given as add-on therapy to sulphonylurea in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on optimized sulphonylurea treatment and on diet/lifestyle advice during the titration and run-in period. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, 6 week placebo metformin titration period, 2-week single-blind run-in period, followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of food photography with group discussions to the effect of regular diabetes nutrition care on people's eating habits, satisfaction with care, self-care behaviors, and blood sugar levels. We hypothesize that, by photographing all meals and snacks (i.e., keeping 'photo journals') and participating in discussions about the photographs with peers and a nutritionist, people with diabetes will become aware of their behaviors and develop concrete strategies to meet nutritional recommendations.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a dose of ramipril combined with a normal dose of telmisartan 80 mg will be more effective than ramipril 20 mg in reducing microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients with diabetes.
In type 2 diabetic patients with poor glycemic control despite maximum "classic" oral treatment, bed time insulin therapy may lead to a parallel increase in abdominal visceral and subcutaneous fat, whereas pioglitazone treatment should lead to a stability (or even a decrease ) in visceral and an increase in subcutaneous abdominal fat. As visceral fat mass is correlated with insulin-resistance and cardio-vascular risk, the evolution of visceral abdominal fat in type 2 diabetic patients is of great importance. Main objective: To compare visceral and subcutaneous abdominal fat compartment after a six-month bed time insulin or pioglitazone treatment in type 2 diabetic patients with poor glycemic control despite a maximal oral treatment with metformin and sulfonylureas. The study hypothesis is that quantity of visceral and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue should differently evolute comparing a 6 month treatment with pioglitazone® (30 or 45mg/j) or NPH " bed-time " insulin (0.2u/kg/
Aspirin is commonly used for treatment of painful and inflammatory diseases and in the prevention of the cardiovascular disease. A major drawback of aspirin treatment is the well recognized gastrointestinal toxicity. Recent research indicate that coupling a nitric oxide (NO)derivate to the aspirin moiety retains its therapeutic effects while avoiding its undesirable gastrointestinal side effects. NO has cytoprotective effects, such as blood flow modulation, mucus release and repair of mucosal injury. NCX4016, a NO-releasing derivative of acetylsalicilic acid, has been shown to retain the analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic activity of aspirin, but with less gastrointestinal toxicity. In addition, preliminary data suggested that NCX4016 may restore insulin sensitivity in eNOS deficient mice. This study was aimed to evaluate the activity of NCX4016, compared to aspirin, on albuminuria, insulin sensitivity and cardiac and renal hemodynamic in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The patients after one month of placebo treatment, entered two 1-month treatments periods, with equivalent doses (800 mg of NCX4016, 325 mg of aspirin) of NCX4016 or aspirin.
