TITLE: CSP 465-C, Fatty Acid Binding protein 2 (FABP2) ancillary proposal to CSP# 465 Glycemic Control and Complications in Diabetes Mellitus Type 2. Angeliki Georgopoulos, M.D. Carlos Abraira M.D. William Duckworth M.D. Fatty acid binding protein 2 (FABP2) is involved in the transport of long chain fatty acids across the intestinal epithelium. A common (40-45%) polymorphism of FABP2 gene (codon 54 Threonine for Alanine) results in increased intestinal fatty acid absorption and triglyceride secretion (Baier et al J Clin Invest 95:1281-87, 1995; Baier et al J Biol Chem 271: 10892-10896,1996). We have found (JCEM 85:3155-60, 2000) that in patients with type 2 diabetes, the codon 54 polymorphism of the FABP2 results in fasting and postprandial hypertriglyceridemia. Since hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes and it is part of the insulin resistance syndrome, the objective of this ancillary study would be to screen the participants of the CSP# 465 study for the polymorphism and assess a) whether those carrying the polymorphism respond differently to the various treatment modalities and b) whether they develop more cardiovascular events compared to the ones lacking the polymorphism. There is one study that suggests an association of the polymorphism with a history of parental stroke (JCEM 85:2801-4, 2000). The only additional request from the study participants will be to agree to the collection of a blood sample to be used for DNA isolation and screening for the polymorphism. No additional funds are requested. If this polymorphism proves to be a predictor of either the response to a specific treatment modality or of the risk to macro-vascular complications, it will be very easy to screen for it and target our treatment modalities appropriately.
NCT00800683

NCT01031680
This study is carried out to assess whether dapagliflozin lowers blood glucose, body weight and blood pressure, when added to patients existing medications and how it compares with their usual treatment without added dapagliflozin. Safety data will be collected and analysed to confirm that treatment with dapagliflozin is safe and well tolerated in patients who have diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension.
NCT01724515
The purpose of this study is determine if you have too much fat in your body that it will decrease the conversion of food energy into energy that your body can use.
NCT01280695
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of MSDC-0602 and to evaluate the reduction in fasting plasma glucose in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
NCT01293669
TC-6987 is a selective nicotinic α-7 receptor ligand (open channel stabilizer) that has demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory/antioxidant properties in animal models. Following the oral administration of a 1mg/kg dose of TC-6987 to diabetic mice (db/db mouse) for 7 weeks, numerous metabolic improvements were observed. Specifically, plasma glucose and triglyceride concentrations declined by approximately 30%; Hb1Ac was reduced by nearly 50%; and TNF-α declined more than 60% relative to control db/db mice Therefore, it appears that TC-6987 could prove beneficial in reducing elevated glucose concentrations in diabetic patients as well as in ameliorating organ damage associated with inflammation, oxidative stress and hyperglycemia.
NCT00996658
The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Linagliptin (5 mg once daily) compared to placebo given for 24 weeks as add on therapy to metformin in combination with pioglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with insufficient glycaemic control.
NCT01932866
The purpose of this randomized, controlled study is to evaluate whether the knowledge of a personalized diabetes risk score affects adherence to a 12-week diet and exercise lifestyle change program in prediabetic patients. The intervention group will receive diabetes risk score results at the beginning of the twelve weeks, and the control group will not receive these results. Both groups will review their baseline and 12-week diabetes risk score results at the conclusion of the program and will be followed for an additional twelve weeks. Attendance rates and changes in weight, BMI, abdominal circumference, blood pressure, HgA1c, fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, and diabetes risk score will be compared between the groups.
NCT00601250
The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 1356 (5 mg once daily) compared to placebo given for 24 weeks as add-on therapy to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with insufficient glycaemic control
NCT01163721
This study enrolled participants with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) despite non-insulin antidiabetic therapy in addition to diet and exercise, and would have benefited from additional control of blood glucose levels. The study assessed the metabolic effects of ranolazine, including its effect in lowering glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and lowering glucose while fasting, and following a meal (postprandial). Participants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive ranolazine or placebo, and were stratified by HbA1c ≤ 7.5% or \> 7.5%. Enrollment was to include no more than two-thirds of participants with baseline HbA1c ≤ 7.5%. Other than glucose values, efficacy endpoint results remained blinded during the study; for safety purposes, the investigator was to be alerted of severe hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. Participants were instructed to maintain logs of their physical activity/exercise (Subject Activity Assessment) and study drug dosing (Dosing Log).
NCT01474083
The purpose of this trial is to study the drug levels and biomarkers in the body and the safety of an investigational drug (GK1-399) in patients with Type 2 diabetes. Patients in the study will receive placebo for 1 week followed by 1 of 4 treatments for 6 weeks. One of the 4 treatments will be placebo, which does not contain an active ingredient. The study participation includes in-patient and out-patient days.
NCT01345500
The purpose of the Take Charge Study is to determine among overweight and obese men and women with type 2 diabetes whether 1) participating in a commercial weight loss program promotes great weight loss and weight loss maintenance at one year compared to usual care conditions and 2) whether there is a differential weight loss response to different dietary macronutrient composition (lower carbohydrate/higher fat diet versus a higher carbohydrate/lower fat).
NCT02015780
To evaluate the efficacy of fasiglifam 50 mg once daily compared to placebo on glycemic control as measured by glycosilated haemoglobin (HbA1c) over a 16-week treatment period in participants with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4 or 5 on dialysis.
NCT01474538
This study will provide information on the use of insulin lispro and insulin aspart in insulin pumps in participants with type 2 diabetes.
NCT00882726
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNTO 3649 following a single dose in healthy adults and following multiple doses in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
NCT00949286
The study is designed to determine the long term, post trial effects of the two interventions studied in ADVANCE (routine blood pressure lowering with perindopril-indapamide as compared with placebo and intensive gliclazide-MR based glucose control as compared to standard guideline based glucose control) in individuals with type 2 diabetes at high risk of cardiovascular events. The long term, post randomization effects of the two study interventions will be investigated separately as they were for the main trial. This study will clarify and quantify the long-term, post trial (often referred to as legacy) effects of these two interventions in a broader population of patients with type 2 diabetes from high and low to middle income countries, and in the setting of comprehensive cardiovascular risk factor treatment. With the ADVANCE trial infrastructure and surveillance system already in place, the implementation of extended follow-up will be feasible. The conclusions of this follow up study will have profound clinical implications for the care of patients with type 2 diabetes around the world.
NCT01084005
The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of linagliptin (5 mg / once daily) compared to placebo given for 24 weeks as add-on therapy to stable treatment in elderly patients with T2DM with insufficient glycaemic control
