NCT00095030
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn whether a muraglitazar-metformin combination is at least as effective as a glimepiride-metformin combination to treat type 2 diabetics who are not sufficiently controlled with metformin alone. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
NCT00360815
Background. Long-term microvascular and neurologic complications cause major morbidity and mortality in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). We examined whether intensive treatment with the goal of maintaining blood glucose concentrations close to the normal range could decrease the frequency and severity of these complications. Methods. A total of 1441 patients with IDDM -- 726 with no retinopathy at base line (the primary-prevention cohort) and 715 with mild retinopathy (the secondary-intervention cohort) were randomly assigned to intensive therapy administered either with an external insulin pump or by three or more daily insulin injections and guided by frequent blood glucose monitoring or to conventional therapy with one or two daily insulin injections. The patients were followed for a mean of 6.5 years, and the appearance and progression of retinopathy and other complications were assessed regularly.
NCT00359801
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term pulmonary and cardiovascular safety of Exubera in routine clinical practice.
NCT00519142
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate whether mitiglinide administered in combination with metformin is more effective than metformin alone in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) whose blood sugar is not well controlled taking metformin alone. This is a 24 week study which measures improvement in blood sugar after of treatment.
NCT00494013
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness and safety of insulin lispro protamine suspension (ILPS) as compared to insulin detemir as basal insulin therapy in adults with type 2 diabetes. A gatekeeper strategy will be employed for sequentially testing the secondary objectives.
NCT00482950
This study is to test the efficacy and safety of PHX1149T in combination with metformin, a glitazone, or metformin and a glitazone in subjects with Type 2 diabetes for 12 weeks. After completing the 12 week double blind part of the study, subjects can enter an open label extension study
NCT00547482
The main purpose of this research study is to investigate whether the TANTALUS II System is effective in improving glycemic (blood sugar) control in subjects who have type 2 diabetes (high blood sugar) and are overweight. The research will also evaluate the impact on weight loss and will study other health conditions related to obesity. This research study involves an experimental system. The experimental system is the TANTALUS System, which consists of the implantable portion that includes the implantable pulse generator (IPG) and three pairs of implantable leads. There are also three external parts (items that are used outside your body): the programmer, the charger, and the Patient Wand.
NCT00642174
This trial is designed as a phase 2 randomized, double-blind double dummy, active comparator controlled, two-period two-arm crossover study to enroll 40 patients across multiple centers. The study will compare platelet function following a prasugrel loading dose and 1 week of prasugrel maintenance therapy with high-dose clopidogrel loading dose and 1 week of high-dose clopidogrel maintenance therapy in patients with drug treated type 2 diabetes mellitus who have coronary artery disease. Various assays of platelet function will be used in this study. Platelet function will be studied using the following assays: Accumetrics VerifyNowTM P2Y12, Light Transmittance Aggregometry (LTA), Vasodilator-associated stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), and Thromboelastography (TEG)-platelet mapping.
NCT00654745
To determine if olmesartan plus amlodipine combination therapy alone and with hydrochlorothiazide will be safe and effective to reduce high blood pressure in hypertensive, type 2 diabetic subjects.
NCT00143247
This is a long-term safety study for Phase 2 subjects who choose to remain on Exubera® (inhaled insulin).
NCT00138671
A One Year Clinical Trial Assessing the Usefulness and Safety of Inhaled Insulin in Diabetics with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
NCT00214565
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, multi-center, active-controlled (pioglitazone) study of tesaglitazar (0.5 mg 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 3-week enrollment period, 6 week placebo single blind run in period followed by a 24-week double blind treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period.
NCT00570739
This is a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled (for colesevelam hydrochloride (HCl)) study in the type 2 diabetic subjects and pre-diabetic subjects. Diabetic participants will also be treated with open label, background,metformin HCl. Two-hundred sixty subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and 200 pre-diabetic subjects are planned to be be enrolled. Qualified subjects with T2DM will be randomized 1:1 to receive metformin HCl plus colesevelam HCl or metformin HCl plus placebo matching colesevelam HCl. Qualified pre-diabetic subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive colesevelam HCl or matching placebo.
NCT00931034
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the South Beach Diet and products compared to the American Diabetic Association Diabetes Meal Plan.
NCT00548808
The purpose of the study is to compare the insulin lispro low mixture (1, 2 or 3 daily injections) with insulin glargine (alone or with 1, 2 or 3 insulin lispro daily injections) on lowering the blood sugar level
NCT00487240
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of insulin lispro protamine suspension (ILPS) as compared to insulin detemir as basal insulin combined with mealtime insulin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes. A gatekeeper strategy will be employed for sequentially testing the secondary objectives.
NCT01067950
Current medical therapies are not able to prevent progression of established macroproteinuira (i.e. diabetic nephropathy) to end-stage renal failure in type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetic patients. In this setting, proteinuria is a major risk factor for mortality. Pancreas transplantation, on the contrary, can revert diabetic nephropathy and thereby prevent end-stage chronic renal failure, with theoretically lower risk of death as compared to current medical therapies.The main objective of this study is to assess superiority of isolated pancreas transplantation versus intensive exogenous insulin therapy in type 1 diabetic patients with overt diabetic nephropathy and mildly reduced renal function. The primary endpoint is a composite efficacy/failure end-point including: patient mortality and renal function impairment during 5 years in patients with badly controlled diabetes and nephropathy resisting to up-to-date nephroprotective therapies.Main secondary objectives are safety and efficacy of both regimens, including proteinuria and renal histology evaluation, metabolic control and quality of life, acute and chronic extrarenal complications of diabetes, pancreas survival and all risks related to the transplant procedure (anaesthesia, surgery and immunosuppression side-effects) and to the intensive insulin therapy management.
NCT00094991
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how muraglitazar lowers blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
