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.
NCT00334919
The purpose of this study is to determine if the naturopathic Anti-Inflammatory Diet results in reduced inflammation and a better response by the immune system when compared to a standard diabetic diet based on the current American Diabetes Association guidelines.
NCT00138671
A One Year Clinical Trial Assessing the Usefulness and Safety of Inhaled Insulin in Diabetics with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
NCT00637338
PF-04603629 is being investigated for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Specifically, PF-04603629 is a protein that is a combination of exendin-4 (a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) mimetic currently marketed as Byetta®) fused to human transferrin (a naturally occuring protein) in order to increase the concentration of exendin-4 in the blood. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PF-04603629 following multiple escalating subcutaneous doses in adult subjects with T2DM.
NCT00029848
To assess the effect on weight loss and weight maintenance over a period of one year when prescribed with a hypocaloric diet in obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes
NCT00646438
Standard care for patients with diabetes having CABG surgery at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center includes strict control of blood sugar (glucose) levels for 3 days after surgery. This is done through frequent monitoring of blood sugar levels and by giving insulin continuously through a needle into a vein (intravenously). This intensive glucose control has resulted in fewer complications such as serious infections and death, and has shortened the length of the hospital stay for patients. This study treatment is different from standard treatment in that it extends the intensive glucose control beyond the third postoperative day to one full year. Once discharged from the hospital following the CABG procedure, the intense glucose control is done using subcutaneous insulin (a shot under the skin), oral medications, and by measuring blood sugar levels frequently. The purpose of this study is to see how safe and effective strict glucose control is when extended beyond 3 days and hospital discharge for one year. Another purpose is to see how well patients can comply with the daily management of intensive glucose control for one-year as well as the study follow-up schedule.
NCT00018486
The purpose of this study is to determine if individuals with diabetes are at increased risk of hearing impairment or tinnitus (the perception of ringing or noises in the ears or head). An important goal of this research is also to obtain a better understanding of possible interactions between hearing disorders and other chronic conditions, such as diabetes. Participation in this research will be for a few hours only, to be scheduled at the participant's convenience and according to the testing schedules of the different clinics involved.
NCT00494663
DiObex Inc. is developing an experimental drug (DIO-902) that is made up of part of the ketoconazole molecule for the treatment of elevated blood glucose associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Ketoconazole (Nizoral®) is a drug available by prescription for the treatment of fungal infections however DIO-902 is an investigational drug. DIO-902 may lower blood glucose by lowering levels of a naturally occurring hormone called cortisol. Elevated cortisol may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this research study is to test the safety of DIO-902 when taken by mouth with metformin and the cholesterol-lowering drug atorvastatin to determine the type and severity of any side effects from this treatment. Other purposes of the study are to see how the treatment affects your blood glucose levels, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and waist circumference.
NCT00150410
* Whether a combination of three therapies - metformin and a sulfonylurea plus Exubera, an investigational drug, controls your diabetes at least as much as a triple combination therapy of metformin and a sulfonylurea plus Avandia, a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug. * Whether a combination of two therapies - metformin plus Exubera controls your diabetes at least as much as a as a triple combination therapy of metformin and a sulfonylurea plus Avandia.

NCT00252876
This is a 107-week open-label, multi-center long-term extension study from GALLANT studies 2/22, 5, 7, 8 and 14 to monitor the safety and tolerability of oral tesaglitazar 1 mg in patients with type 2 diabetes during up to 104 weeks of treatment. The total duration, including treatment and follow-up, is 107 weeks.
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.
NCT00920881
To evaluate the clinical accuracy of the FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System with respect to a reference standard.
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.
NCT00058981
Randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study to evaluate safety and efficacy of multiple subcutaneous doses of DiaPep277 in patients with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA). Study medication will be administered at time 0, 1 and 3 months, and then every 3 months for a total of 8 administrations. The total duration of the trial is 24 months (treatment for 18 months and follow-up for an additional 6 months). Patients will be male or female between the ages of 30 and 65 years, inclusive, within 2 to 60 months of the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. Subjects must be positive for glutamic acid decarboxylate (GAD) autoantibodies. At the Screen Visit (Visit 2), all subjects will be asked to discontinue their use of all oral antidiabetic medications with the exception of metformin. The subjects will be placed on a stable regimen of insulin and diet (plus metformin if needed). Prior to the Baseline Visit (Visit 3), diabetic control must be achieved by diet and insulin (plus metformin if needed).
NCT00134147
To assess the impact on glucose control by inhaled insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes who are not well controlled on 2 or more oral anti-diabetic agents
NCT00261352
This is a 24-week study to determine the lipid metabolic effects, safety, and tolerability of tesaglitazar compared with metformin and metformin in combination with fenofibrate in patients with type 2 diabetes and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Improvement in dyslipidemia will be evaluated. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, 6-week run-in and a 24-week randomized, double blind, parallel group, multi-center, active controlled (metformin with or without fenofibrate) treatment period and a 3-week follow-up. From visit 2 (run-in), all patients will receive a standardized dose of statin (rosuvastatin)
