NCT02012478
Despite advances in medical therapy for diabetes, significant numbers of patients fail to achieve adequate blood glucose control. Diabetic patients who engage in more self-care behaviors have better glycemic control, as measured by HbA1C. Patient "activation", defined as the knowledge, skills, beliefs, and behaviors to manage a chronic disease, is key to the performance of these self-care behaviors. There is a growing literature on diabetes behavioral change interventions; however interventions are often developed and implemented without consideration of patients readiness to engage in lifestyle changes. Additionally, patient-tailored interventions require intensive clinical and financial resources, making them difficult to integrate into clinical practice. Mobile text messaging (SMS) programs have been successfully used to promote smoking cessation, alcohol cessation, and weight loss in diverse patient populations. SMS interventions for diabetes have also been developed, but they have been designed primarily to provide feedback on blood glucose management, rather than to motivate behavioral change. The few studies that included motivational content as a primary feature, did not tailor their intervention to a patient's readiness for change or rigorously describe their motivational intervention, and show limited efficacy. To address these concerns, we will perform a three-month randomized controlled pilot study to develop and test a Motivational Interviewing (MI)-informed SMS intervention tailored to patient level of activation for patients with poorly controlled type II diabetes.
NCT00391209
This randomized, multicenter, open-label, active-comparator, 2-arm, parallel-group, 6 month study with approximately 360 patients will compare the efficacy of two treatment regimens (Algorithm A versus Algorithm B) in insulin-naive patients with type 2 diabetes not optimally controlled by one or more oral antihyperglycemic medications. Patients will be assigned randomly to receive one of the following treatment groups: Algorithm A is defined as a simplified diabetes management regimen starting with a fixed dose of HIIP (also known as AIR® Inhaled Insulin)(AIR® is a registered trademark of Alkermes,Inc.), titrating 2 times per week based on 2 times per week 4 point blood glucose values for the first month and titrating 1 time per week based on once weekly 4-point blood glucose values for the remainder of the study, increasing total daily dose by a maximum of 6 U per day. Algorithm B is defined as an intensive diabetes management regimen, starting with an adjusted dose of AIR® Inhaled Insulin, titrating 2 times per week based on daily 4 point blood glucose values, with sustained monitoring of dose and blood glucose throughout the study, increasing total daily dose by a maximum of 8 U per day.
NCT02526524
The purpose of the study is to compare the glycemic effects of delayed-release metformin (Met DR) to placebo in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) over 16 weeks. The study is designed to evaluate several doses of Met DR (600 to 1500 mg once daily in the morning \[qAM\]) compared to placebo. A single-blind reference treatment of 2000 mg metformin immediate-release (Met IR) per day administered as equal divided doses (1000 mg Met IR BID) will also be included.
NCT00067951
The purpose of this research study is to determine if a new investigational diabetes drug is safe and effective in treating people who have Type II diabetes mellitus with very high HbA1c or FPG (fasting plasma glucose) levels. The HbA1c test, also called the hemoglobin A1c test or glycated hemoglobin test, is a measurement of the average amount of sugar in the blood over the last 2 to 3 months. FPG is a test that measures the amount of sugar in the blood after an 8 hour fast.
NCT00499707
The purpose of this 32 week study is to demonstrate that fixed-dose combination treatment with rosiglitazone/metformin will safely and effectively control glycemia as first line oral therapy in subjects type 2 diabetes. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate superiority of rosiglitazone/metformin compared to its rosiglitazone and metformin.
NCT01790438
The purpose of this study is to compare LY2605541 and human insulin isophane suspension (NPH) using the following measures for participants treated for up to 26 weeks: * Change in participants' overall blood sugar control * The rate of night time low blood sugar episodes * The number of participants that reach blood sugar targets without low night time blood sugar episodes * The total number of low blood sugar episodes reported
NCT02091362
The main purpose of the trial is to determine the effect of a study drug known as LY2409021 on blood pressure and pulse rate in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) when compared to placebo. The study has two periods. Each participant will receive LY2409021 or placebo in each period. At least 4 weeks will pass between periods. The study will last about 23 weeks for each participant. Participants may remain on stable dose metformin, as prescribed by their personal physician.
NCT01680341
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of the trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of two different titration algorithms for insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDeg/IAsp) in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus previously treated with insulin glargine.
NCT01468987
The purpose of this study is: * To compare blood glucose (blood sugar) control on LY2605541 with insulin glargine after 26 weeks of treatment. * To compare the rate of night time hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) on LY2605541 with insulin glargine during 26 weeks of treatment. * To compare the number of participants on LY2605541 reaching blood glucose targets without hypoglycemia episodes at night to those taking insulin glargine after 26 weeks of treatment. * To compare the rate of hypoglycemia over a 24-hour period on LY2605541 with insulin glargine during 26 weeks of treatment.
NCT00437112
A study to compare Human Inhalation Powder (also known as AIR® Inhaled Insulin) (AIR® is a registered trademark of Alkermes, Inc.)with insulin glargine injections in patients with Type 2 diabetes who are currently taking oral medications and have not previously taken insulin. Change in HbA1c levels will be reviewed to determine superiority or inferiority of the AIR Inhaled Insulin regimen.

NCT01581476
The purpose of this study is to determine whether use of blood pressure lowering drugs, Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and blood fat (lipid) lowering drugs (statins) may have a place in the treatment of adolescents with diabetes and can help reduce serious long-term health problems in this population.
NCT02523131
The main study objective is to determine whether day and night automated closed loop glucose control combined with pump suspend feature will improve glucose control and reduce the burden of hypoglycaemia compared to sensor augmented insulin pump therapy alone. This is an open-label, multi-centre, multi-national, single-period, randomised, parallel group design study, involving a three-month period of home study during which day and night glucose levels will be controlled either by a closed loop system combined with pump suspend feature (intervention group) or by sensor augmented insulin pump therapy (control group). It is expected that up to 100 subjects, aiming for 84 randomised subjects \[42 youth (6 to 21 years), and 42 adults (22 years and older)\], with type 1 diabetes will be recruited through paediatric and adult outpatient diabetes clinics in each of the investigation centres. Subjects who drop out within the first four weeks of the intervention may be replaced. Participants will all be on subcutaneous insulin pump therapy and will have proven competencies both in the use of the study insulin pump and the study CGM device. Subjects in the intervention group will receive appropriate training in the safe use of closed loop insulin delivery system and pump suspend feature. All subjects will have regular contact with the study team during the home study phase including 24/7 telephone support. The primary outcome is between group differences in the time spent in the target glucose range from 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/l (70 to 180mg/dl) based on CGM glucose levels during the 12 week free living phase. Secondary outcomes are HbA1 at the end of treatment period, the time spent with glucose levels above and below target, as recorded by CGM, and other CGM-based metrics. Safety evaluation comprises assessment of the frequency of severe hypoglycaemic episodes.
