NCT05256706
Despite the development of novel treatments, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death and disability. It has been observed in clinical practice, that the use of novel glycemia-lowering therapies with cardioprotective features remains profoundly low despite proven efficacy. It has been proposed that such low uptake is more related to insurance type and coverage than to risk assessment. While it can be easy to blame prescribing deficiencies on complacent physicians and/or over-frugal payors, SomaLogic believes there is more likely to be a fundamental problem with the cost and risk-effective allocation of such therapies, which are neither low in cost nor free of adverse events. As current clinical trials and guidelines tend to "bundle" participants together, there is an absence of individualized assessment of residual cardiovascular risk. This leads to physicians, participants, and payors being relatively uninformed as to the need for and/or likely benefits of such therapies in an individual. Simply giving every eligible participant a drug regardless of residual risk would be unaffordable and would create adverse effects and costs for people at low residual risk who might not actually benefit from the drugs. To resolve this lack of precision in risk assessment, SomaLogic has performed the largest ever proteomic program to date with over 36,000 samples from 26,000 participants in eleven clinical studies, for a total of over 180,000,000 protein measurements, to develop and validate a surrogate proteomic endpoint for cardiovascular outcomes. The SomaSignal Cardiovascular Risk (SSCVR) test, a 27-protein model encompassing ten biological systems.
NCT02787785
The MADIT S-ICD trial was designed to evaluate if subjects with a prior myocardial infarction, diabetes mellitus and a relatively preserved ejection fraction of 36-50% will have a survival benefit from receiving a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) when compared to those receiving conventional medical therapy. The trial enrollment was stopped in 2018 due to lower than expected enrollment, all subjects enrolled at that time were followed for approximately 5 years.
NCT03429543
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an empagliflozin dosing regimen and one dose of linagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes who are aged 10 to below 18 years and are currently taking metformin, insulin or both drugs (DINAMO TM) or who are treatment naïve or not on active treatment after metformin withdrawal (DINAMO TM MONO) . Empagliflozin and linagliptin are both approved for use in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. This study will assess how well empagliflozin and linagliptin work by finding out how these treatments affect blood glucose (sugar) levels compared to placebo (a pill that contains no active drug), in children and adolescents. Empagliflozin and linagliptin are considered investigational products in this study since while they have been approved for use in adults, they have not been approved for children and adolescents due to lack of clinical studies in this specific population. Patients with type 2 diabetes have higher levels of blood glucose (sugar) than patients who do not have this disease. The high level of sugar in the blood can lead to serious short-term and long-term medical problems. The main goal of treating diabetic patients is to lower blood glucose to a normal level. Lowering and controlling blood glucose help prevent or delay complications of diabetes such as heart disease, kidney, eye and nerve diseases, and the possibility of amputation. Empagliflozin is a drug that helps to reduce blood glucose (sugar) levels by causing glucose to be excreted in the urines. Linagliptin works by increasing the production of insulin (a hormone that controls the level of blood glucose) after meals when blood glucose (sugar) levels are too high. This helps to lower blood sugar levels. The subject will either receive one of the active study drugs or a placebo. This study will be double blind; this means that neither the subject, nor the study doctor will know which treatment the subject will receive. Which treatment the subject receives is decided by a computer, purely by chance; this is called a "random assignment". For this study, there will first be a screening visit, followed by a 2-week placebo run-in period (all subjects will take placebo once daily). This run-in period is designed to ensure subjects are able to take the study drugs as described in the study protocol. Thereafter there will be a 26-week treatment phase (week 1-week 26) and a 26-week safety extension period (week 27-week 52). Following this there will be a follow-up visit at week 55. On Day 1 after the placebo run-in phase, the subject will be randomly assigned to receive one of the 3 treatments: empagliflozin 10 mg, linagliptin 5 mg or placebo in a blinded manner. This treatment will continue up to week 14. Then after week 14, the subject will be assigned to receive one of the following 4 treatments: empagliflozin 10 mg, empagliflozin 25 mg, linagliptin 5 mg or placebo in a blinded manner. The drugs assigned after week 14 will be the same drugs as on Day 1 but some subjects will receive a higher dose of empagliflozin. After the completion of the 26-week treatment period, the subject will enter a 26-week safety extension period. The same active treatment that the subject had been assigned to at week 14 visit will be continued. Subjects assigned to placebo on Day 1 will be randomly assigned to receive one of the 3 active treatments: empagliflozin 10 mg, empagliflozin 25 mg or linagliptin 5 mg in a blinded manner. This safety extension period is primarily designed to provide additional information on how well empagliflozin and linagliptin are tolerated. Following the treatment phases, there will be a follow-up visit at week 55 Intervention model description: Eligible subjects with HbA1c of 6.5% to 10.5% at screening will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive empagliflozin 10 mg, linagliptin 5 mg or placebo. HbA1c assessment will be performed at Week 12. All subjects with Week 12 HbA1c \< 7% will remain on previously assigned randomized treatment. Subjects taking empagliflozin with Week 12 HbA1c \>= 7% will be re-randomized in a 1:1 ratio to continue on the low dose treatment (empagliflozin 10 mg) or up-titrate to the high dose treatment (empagliflozin 25 mg). Subjects taking linagliptin or placebo with Week 12 HbA1c \>= 7% will remain on previously assigned treatment. All subjects will get new medication kits dispensed at Week 14 to maintain the blinding. At Week 26, all subjects previously assigned to placebo will be re-randomized in a 1:1:1: ratio to receive one of the active treatments: empagliflozin 10 mg, empagliflozin 25 mg or linagliptin 5 mg. All subjects will get new medication kits dispensed at Week 14 to maintain the blinding.
NCT05377333
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the study drug LY3457263 when administered alone or in combination with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) in participants with type 2 diabetes. Blood tests will be performed to investigate how the body processes the study drug and how the study drug affects the body. The study will last up to approximately 16 weeks excluding the screening period for each participant and include up to 17 visits.
NCT04886388
BT-001 is a software program intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes, under the guidance of their physician, improve glycemic control (i.e., levels of blood sugar). The BT-001 software delivers a type of behavioral therapy to patients via a mobile application that targets behaviors related to achieving glycemic control. The effectiveness of BT-001 will be measured by its ability to help patients reduce Hemoglobin A1c, or HbA1c (a marker in the blood that measures blood sugar) compared to standard medical care in patients with type 2 diabetes.
NCT02408120
The purpose of this study is to test whether using extra doses of aspart insulin to correct blood sugars before meals improves the care of patients with type 2 diabetes in the hospital who are already receiving the standard of care treatment with glargine and aspart insulin injections to control blood sugar levels. Studies done in the past indicate that blood sugar levels are controlled on the standard treatment of insulin and that most patients do not need the small extra dose of insulin at bedtime. The investigators want to test if there is any benefit to giving patients extra doses of insulin during the day to correct the high blood sugars.
NCT04795531
This study compares insulin icodec (a new insulin taken once a week) to insulin degludec (an insulin taken once daily which is already available on the market) in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin degludec taken daily. Participants will get their study medicine in an injection pen. Participants will get a pen for weekly injection and one for daily injection. One will be icodec or degludec and the other will be dummy medicine. The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants and the study staff will not know which active medicine they get. The insulin is injected with a needle in a skin fold in the thigh. The study could last for about 8 months. Participants will have 13 clinic visits and 17 phone calls with the study doctor. At 8 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 4 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
NCT03242343
This is a prospective clinical study of the VasQ external support for arteriovenous fistulas. The device is designed to improve fistula outcomes by optimizing the geometrical configuration of the fistula, influencing hemodynamics, minimizing turbulence and promote laminar flow. All patients will be implanted with the VasQ device and will be followed up for a duration of 24 months.
NCT04521712
GDM is characterized by decreased insulin sensitivity, decreased insulin secretion, or a combination of both. Women with GDM are at significant risk for overt T2DM later in life, and postpartum insulin sensitivity and secretion in women with GDM has not been quantified, limiting our ability to optimize screening for overt T2DM. In addition, compliance with currently recommended postpartum T2DM screening by OGTT is poor. Quantification of postpartum insulin sensitivity and secretion in women at high risk for T2DM will inform strategies to improve diagnostic strategies. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is a new technology that may be useful to identify women with persistent hyperglycemia. Understanding maternal glycemia and physiology that drives glycemia in the postpartum period is limited. Completion of this study will define postpartum maternal glycemia, quantify insulin secretion versus insulin sensitivity defects, and demonstrate the feasiblity of using continuous glucose monitoring to identify women most at risk for overt T2DM.
NCT00017953
The Look AHEAD study is a multi-center, randomized clinical trial to examine the long-term effects of a lifestyle intervention designed to achieve and maintain weight loss. The study will investigate the effects of the intervention on heart attacks, stroke and cardiovascular-related death in individuals with type 2 diabetes who are also overweight or obese.
NCT05063734
This study is conducted to select the THR-687 dose level (Part A of the study) and to assess the efficacy and safety of the selected dose level compared to aflibercept (Part B of the study).
NCT05013008
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic kidney disease (CKD), a long-term, progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly. When CKD happens in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus, a condition characterized by high blood sugar levels, CKD is also referred to as diabetic kidney disease (DKD). FIGARO-BM is an add-on study in which blood draws that were collected in the FIGARO-DKD study are further analyzed. No additional blood draws (also referred to as biological samples) or data will be obtained from the participants, nor will any additional or new study intervention be introduced. No visit or patient contact other than for obtaining the agreement by the patients (also called informed consent) will be required. Inflammation and scarring are both seen as responsible for worsening of chronic kidney disease. There is much information from animal studies that the study treatment finerenone (BAY94-8862) works against inflammation and against scarring (also called fibrosis) in organs such as the kidney. In this exploratory study researchers want to learn more about the study treatment finerenone (BAY94-8862). To find this out, this study will examine substances called biomarkers in blood draws from participants in the FIGARO-DKD study. Biomarkers are used as indicators of biological processes, disease processes or responses to medication. The biomarkers that will be examined stand for inflammation, organ scarring (also called fibrosis), blood vessel function and congestion. The main question of this study is whether there are differences between these biomarkers in the group of participants who received finerenone and the group of participants who received a placebo in the FIGARO-DKD study. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. To answer this question, the researchers will compare the levels of these biomarkers between the two groups at different time points after starting the study treatment. Blood samples for this study will be obtained from FIGARO-DKD study sites with a high number of participants who had been treated with finerenone or placebo for at least 24 months. This information will be combined with other information from biomarker examinations already available in the FIGARO-DKD study.
NCT02326129
The investigators wants to determine if 11β-HSD1 activity will be positively associated, and 5α-reductase activity negatively associated, with (a) degree of insulin resistance defined by the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and (b) worsening glycemic control defined by higher HbA1c and impaired fasting glucose in a group of obese children and young adults with or without type 2 diabetes compared to lean children and young adults without diabetes. The investigators also want to identify key metabolic signatures associated with diabetes using metabolomic profiling.
NCT06074601
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate cell-free RNA-based biomarkers for predicting a variety of adverse pregnancy outcomes in a pregnant person population. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Can cell-free RNA-based biomarkers predict which pregnant people are at greatest risk of developing adverse pregnancy outcomes (e.g., preterm birth, preeclampsia)? 2. What is the performance of such biomarkers when predicting an adverse pregnancy outcome (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, TPR)?
NCT03653091
The Revita™ System is being investigated to assess the ability to improve glycemic control in conjunction with diet and exercise in patients with Type 2 diabetes who are inadequately controlled with oral anti-diabetic medications. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Fractyl DMR Procedure using the Revita™ System compared to a sham procedure. At 24 weeks, subjects randomized to the DMR procedure be continued to be followed per protocol till 48 Weeks and the Sham treatment arm will be offered to cross over to receive the DMR treatment and will be followed per protocol for 24 weeks post treatment.
NCT04591691
This is a multi-center observational cohort study of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) to develop and validate potential tissue-based biomarkers that predict complete wound healing. Eligible and consented participants will begin standard of care treatment after collection of tissue specimens from the wound's edge. An additional tissue specimen is collected at 4 weeks if clinically indicated. Tissues will be tested for c-myc and phosphorylated glucocorticoid receptor (p-GR) levels using validated protocols at a central laboratory. Participants will be followed weekly for up to 12 weeks or until complete wound healing (whichever occurs first). One final assessment 2 weeks after complete wound healing will occur to confirm healing.
NCT01546766
The basic objective of this project is to test a modification of existing technology for monitoring the responses of the pupil to light as a method for detecting regional losses of function of the retina. The "instrument" consists of a commercially available set of goggles that monitor the eye positions and pupils using infrared light and small cameras. The signals from the monitoring cameras are collected in a computer that records how their pupils have responded to each lighting condition. Because diabetics develop damage initially to certain parts of the retina before they have more serious damage, the ultimate goal of this research is to develop a simple, noninvasive, rapid method for widespread screening of diabetics in order to identify those who may require medical attention and/or therapy for diabetic retinopathy.
NCT05234944
The aims of this pilot study are to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, preliminary impact, and costs of a brief, behavioral intervention delivered remotely by diabetes educators to people with type 1 diabetes and their family members. The purpose of the intervention is to support health-related quality of life for people with type 1 diabetes of all ages and to support the diabetes health-related quality of life of their parents and partners. This pilot study will explore how this intervention works as a supplement to routine medical care in three clinical care settings: an adult specialty diabetes care setting, a pediatric subspecialty diabetes care setting, and for people who receive diabetes medical care from a primary care provider. To maximize data about feasibility and acceptability of the intervention, all participants in the pilot study will receive the intervention and there will not be randomization to a control condition.
NCT03761615
The overall goal of this study is to enroll pregnant women with type 1 diabetes and follow their glycemic outcomes prospectively throughout pregnancy and into the post-partum period. The investigators anticipate that when compared to subjects using an Artificial pancreas system (AP) as part of a future protocol, this comparator group of subjects undergoing usual care will exhibit less time in target continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) glucose range defined as 63-140 mg/dL and an increased duration of hypoglycemia with CGM glucose \<63 mg/dL.
