NCT00422630
Current estimates suggest that 65% of American adults are overweight or obese. Excess body weight has been associated with an increased risk of a number of metabolic abnormalities, including high blood sugar, high blood pressure, high triglyceride levels, and low HDL ("good") cholesterol levels. Insulin resistance (when the body becomes less sensitive to the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin, and more of the hormone is needed to keep blood sugar levels under control) also frequently occurs as a result of excess body weight. These abnormalities can all increase the risk of heart disease and other serious medical problems. Individuals who are overweight often have a number of these abnormalities at the same time, a situation which is often called "the metabolic syndrome." Dietary changes, physical activity, and weight loss can lead to improvements in each of the metabolic abnormalities described above. However, the best type of diet for people with the metabolic syndrome is not known. This study has been designed to test the effects of several promising dietary patterns, with and without weight loss, in overweight adults with the metabolic syndrome. Most individuals who have the metabolic syndrome do not know they have the condition, so we will be screening many healthy overweight volunteers to see if they may be eligible.
NCT00744237

NCT00732511
We are comparing the blood pressure-lowering effects of two marketed medications, Coreg CR and Toprol XL. Although both drugs reduce blood pressure by blocking the action of noradrenaline on beta-receptors in the blood vessels, Coreg CR also blocks alpha-receptors, which may provide added blood pressure-lowering. In addition, Coreg CR may have anti-oxidant actions. Cells which line blood vessels (termed "endothelial cells") make nitric oxide (NO), which relaxes the muscle cells encircling the blood vessels, causing a reduction in blood pressure. When body cells use oxygen, they normally produce "free radicals", which can destroy NO,leading to high blood pressure, heart damage and worsenimg of diabetes. Antioxidants remove free radicals and prevent or repair this damage. In this study we will measure endothelial cell function, blood vessel wall stiffness, NO in exhaled breath, and blood levels of substances which reflect NO production and destruction to determine if a pure beta-blocker (Toprol XL) differs from an alpha/beta blocker (Coreg CR) in these effects. We will also examine the mechanism by which such differences might occur.
NCT01137695
The hypothesis of the study is that those obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who do not respond to the FDA approved dose of 120 mcg of pramlintide (Symlin®) 3 times daily with expected glucose control require higher than FDA approved dosage. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether higher doses of pramlintide (Symlin®) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus control glucose better than the FDA approved dose of 120 mcg three times daily. The secondary objectives include proving whether higher dose pramlintide (Symlin®) is more efficacious in causing weight loss and reduction in waist circumference than standard dose pramlintide (Symlin®),to determine whether blood levels of certain hormones correlate with need for higher dose therapy,and to determine whether or not the rate of common adverse effects exceeds the maximum FDA approved pramlintide (Symlin®) dose of 120 mcg three times daily.
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
NCT00162357
The purpose of this clinical research study is determine if patients with diabetes that have undergone previous opening of a heart blockage may have a blockage that is not causing any symptoms that may be detected by imaging with Cardiolite.
NCT00138619
This is an 80-week extension to a study to assess the safety and effectiveness of vildagliptin, an unapproved drug, compared to rosiglitazone in lowering overall blood glucose levels in people with type 2 diabetes who have not previously been treated with drug therapy to lower their blood sugar. The purpose of the extension study is to gather data on the long-term safety and effectiveness of vildagliptin in people with type 2 diabetes.
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.
NCT00360698
To evaluate the efficacy of a single injection of glulisine before the main meal added to insulin glargine plus oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) compared to insulin glargine plus OADs in Type 2 diabetic patients poorly controlled with basal insulin plus OADs.
NCT00283049
The purpose of this study is to compare the change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to Week 12 between the 3 treatment arms.
NCT00358124
To compare the glycemic control, as measured by HbA1C, between insulin glargine and rosiglitazone add-on therapies in patients who fail oral combination of a sulfonylurea and metformin
NCT00135096
The purpose of this study is to compare the change in weight from baseline to study week 52 in the per-protocol population of pre-meal insulin glulisine (Apidra) versus post-meal Apidra, in patients receiving insulin glargine (Lantus) as basal insulin.
NCT00286494
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alogliptin, once daily (QD), combined with pioglitazone in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus
NCT00782639
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) following the administration of iopamidol-370 (Iopamiro-370) and iodixanol-320 (Visipaque 320) in patients with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus undergoing cardiac angiography.
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.
NCT00215735
Autologous platelet concentrate will enhance the rate of healing of chronic diabetic wounds
NCT00804986
A multicenter, multinational, randomized,double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Patients with inadequate glycemic control using diet and exercise alone, or in combination with metformin, will be enrolled. The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that LY2428757 given to patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone, or metformin monotherapy, produces a significant decrease in the mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to endpoint at 12 weeks as compared to placebo. Trial consists of 12 weeks of double-blind treatment and 4-week safety follow-up.
