NCT00134264
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. To demonstrate if torcetrapib/atorvastatin can reduce the risk for major cardiovascular disease events, when compared to atorvastatin alone, in patients with coronary heart disease or risk equivalents
NCT00286494

NCT00331487
Efficacy comparison of Pioglitazone, once daily (QD), to Rosiglitazone in participants with Type 2 Diabetes
NCT01591525
The purpose of the type II diabetes (T2D) screening study is to improve diabetes care in minority communities by identifying undiagnosed and uncontrolled T2D patients, as well as help patients without a regular primary care physician (PCP) find one within their community. These goals will be achieved first through a glucose measurement. Individuals with a high glucose measurement will be confirmed with a rapid hemoglobin A1c (HgA1c) test. The HgA1c test will tell us about the patients average blood sugar over the past 3 months, which will allow us to immediately diagnose new and uncontrolled type II diabetics. All participants will fill out a survey on healthcare seeking behaviors before glucose testing. All patients who enter the study will receive education on T2D and the value of regularly visiting their PCP, and will be provided a list of PCP currently accepting new patients within a 3 mile radius. Follow-up visits at 4 and 8 months will help us determine the success this community based screening. The investigators hypothesis is that community based screening designed with adequate education and follow-up, and performed by qualified medical professionals will improve diabetes care in minority communities as assessed through hemoglobin A1c levels over 8 months, and in the change in the number patients who visit/obtain their PCP within the study period.
NCT01158131
Many studies have shown that women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have an increased risk of developing diabetes later in life. The purpose of the study is to test whether a web-based lifestyle intervention program adapted from the NIH sponsored Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), modified specifically for women with a recent history of GDM, incorporating advice about diet and physical activity, delivered in the first 12 months after delivery will help women lose weight, improve overall health, and decrease their risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
NCT00889486
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of TZP-102 on gastric emptying rate, gastroparesis symptoms and health-related quality of life in diabetic patients with gastroparesis.
NCT00491400
The study will compare the effect of atorvastatin to the effect of fenofibrate on endothelial function in patients with diabetes mellitus or the metabolic syndrome.
NCT00734591
In studies of Exubera in persons with diabetes, lung cancer occurred in a few more people who were taking Exubera than in people who were taking other diabetes medicines. All subjects diagnosed with lung cancer had a history of smoking and the number of lung cancer cases observed fell within the expected range based on population-based data. There is currently not enough information to determine if any of the observed lung cancer cases were related to Exubera use, therefore, the study is being conducted to further investigate whether Exubera use makes the appearance of lung cancer more likely.
NCT01340079
Comparison of 2 methods of delivery health education for African-American women with Type 2 Diabetes. The two methods are: face to face education in small groups, as compared to delivering the same curriculum in the virtual world, Second Life.
NCT00660309
The study objective was to assess the effect of single and multiple doses of aliskiren on renal plasma flow, glomerular filtration rate and to compare the effects of single and multiple doses of aliskiren versus captopril or irbesartan on renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, and retinal blood flow in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
NCT00390975
This study will assess gastric emptying in patients with symptoms of diabetic gastroparesis treated with tegaserod over 2 weeks.
NCT00215735
Autologous platelet concentrate will enhance the rate of healing of chronic diabetic wounds
NCT00122421
The goal of this study is to investigate a comprehensive provider-focused intervention to improve the quality of care for diabetic patients in a large primary care practice at Brigham and Women's Hospital. This will be accomplished through pharmacist recommendations provided to primary care providers prior to routine scheduled office visits for diabetic patients.
NCT00151749
The purpose of the study is to see how safe and effective and tolerable the use of WelChol® is for type 2 diabetes when added to insulin alone or in combination with other anti-diabetic drugs
NCT00246987
To determine the effect on glycemic control and lipid parameters of the 2.5 and 5 mg. doses of BMS-298585 in drug naive subjects with Type 2 diabetes as an adjunct to diet and exercise.
NCT00698789
Determine the effect of treatment with INCB019602 administered as an add-on to stable dose metformin therapy in type 2 diabetic subjects on safety and glycemic control.
NCT01545492
INTRODUCTION: CHIPS-Child is a parallel, ancillary study to the CHIPS randomized controlled trial (RCT). CHIPS is designed to determine whether 'less tight' control \[target diastolic BP (dBP) 100mmHg\] or 'tight' control \[target dBP 85mmHg\] of non-proteinuric hypertension in pregnancy is better for the baby without increasing maternal risk. CHIPS-Child is a follow up study at 12 m corrected post-gestational age (± 2 m) limited to non-invasive examination \[anthropometry, hair cortisol, buccal swabs for epigenetic testing and a maternal questionnaire about infant feeding practices and background\]. Annual contact will be maintained in years 2-5 and contact will include annual parental measurement of the child's height, weight and waist circumference. OBJECTIVE: To directly test, for the first time in humans, whether differential blood pressure (BP) control in pregnancy has developmental programming effects, independent of birthweight. We predict that, like famine or protein malnutrition, 'tight' (vs. 'less tight') control of maternal BP will be associated with fetal under-nutrition and effects will be consistent with developmental programming.
NCT00851903
This study was the extension of the LANTU\_C\_02761 study named EASIE and identified as NCT00751114 (core study comparing insulin glargine versus sitagliptin in insulin-naïve patients treated with metformin and not adequately controlled). All patients with Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 7% at the end of the core study had the possibility to enter this extension study if they met the other inclusion criteria and did not present with any exclusion criteria. The visit 14 of the core study (week 24) was the visit 1 (baseline, week 0) of the extension study which consisted of a 12-week treatment period. The objectives of this extension study were: * To assess the glycemic control (HbA1c \<7%) of a 3-month combination therapy with metformin, insulin glargine and sitagliptin in patients not adequately controlled by a previous treatment with metformin plus either insulin glargine or sitagliptin. * To assess the effect of insulin glargine in combination with sitagliptin on HbA1c level, fasting plasma glucose, 7-point glucose profile, hypoglycemia occurrence, body weight and overall safety.
NCT01020123
The primary aim is to evaluate Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of AZD1656 as Add-on Treatment to Metformin in TD2M Patients
NCT00949442
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of insulin glargine over insulin NPH (Neutral Protamin Hagedornon) the change in HbA1c from baseline to the end of the treatment period. Secondary Objective: To compare between treatment groups: * Plasma glucose (fasting, nocturnal) over time, * Changes from baseline in HbA1c over time, * Percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c \<7 and \<6.5, * Use of prandial insulin as rescue medication at month 6, * Incidence and rate of hypoglycemia (symptomatic diurnal and nocturnal, asymptomatic and severe), * Daily dose of insulin, * Change in body weight from baseline, * Evolution of 8-point plasma-glucose (PG) profiles, * Overall safety, * Patient reported outcomes (treatment satisfaction).
