Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a serious health concern for American Indians, but there have been few behaviorally based programs to lessen CVD risk among this population. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a Web-based program, in addition to usual medical care, can lower CVD risk factors among American Indians who have type 2 diabetes and a high risk of developing CVD.
NCT00252720
The primary objective is to determine whether candesartan, compared to placebo reduces the progression of diabetic retinopathy in normotensive, normoalbuminuric type 1 diabetic patients with retinopathy. The secondary objective is to determine whether candesartan, compared to placebo, reduces the incidence of clinically significant macular oedema (CSME) and/or proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and beneficially influences the rate of change in urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER). This study is part of the DIRECT Programme also including a primary prevention study of diabetic retinopathy in type 1 diabetes and a secondary prevention study in type 2 diabetes. The primary objective for all three pooled studies is to determine whether candesartan, compared to placebo, reduces the incidence of microalbuminuria in type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients.
NCT02153879
The structural and functional alterations of high density lipoproteins (HDL) levels in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients linked to hypertriglyceridemia, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, inflammation and oxidation, play a major role in the increased macrovascular risk in these patients. An impaired function of the adipose tissue (AT) in T2D contributes to low HDL concentrations. Objectives: 1) Quantitative and qualitative characterisation of HDL subclasses by ultracentrifugation, proteomic and metabolomic techniques. 2) To study the relationship between the HDL subclasses, preβ1 HDL and remnant HDL, and clinical determinants of arteriosclerosis. 3) Functional in vitro studies of the HDL subclasses determined in Objective 1. 4) To study the role of AT determining the low HDL levels. 5) To study the impact of HDL increasing drugs on HDL qualitative changes.
NCT01099137
Dual combination therapy with metformin and sulphonylurea is the most commonly used combination regimen to treat patients with type 2 diabetes. But, treatment with the dual combination therapy is often unsuccessful at achieving glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. In this setting, use of insulin is often the next therapeutic step. Recently, dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitor is increasingly being used in clinical practice. It is well established that DPP-IV inhibitor improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. But, there have been few studies about the glucose lowering effect of DPP-IV inhibitors (vildagliptin) in Type 2 diabetes patients on the dual combination therapy with a sulfonylurea agent and metformin.The researchers hypothesized that DPP-IV inhibitor as add-on therapy to combination of a sulfonylurea agent and metformin have favorable glucose lowering effect in type 2 diabetic patients. The researchers plan to investigate the change in HbA1C and fasting glucose of 24 weeks treatment with vildagliptin (DPP-IV inhibitor) in combination with a sulfonylurea agent and metformin in type 2 diabetic patients.

NCT00256646
OBJECTIVES: Vascular Disease is the leading cause of complications and death in patients with diabetes. Risk markers and underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated, and may differ from those in non-diabetic individuals. The unifying theme for the Program Project is that hyperglycemia and insulin resistance alter a number of biological processes which interact in vicious cycles to accelerate atherogenesis and are consequently major underlying risk factors for vascular disease. The overall objectives are to define these unique processes and to elucidate underlying biochemical, metabolic, and genetic determinants of vascular disease complications in diabetes. RESEARCH PLAN: Over the past 4 years, we have collaborated with the DCCT/EDIC Study Group, and have made novel observations regarding vascular disease pathogenesis in Type 1 Diabetes. This work has focused our studies on specific pathogenic processes. We will now study a Type 2 Diabetes cohort from the VA Cooperative Study, "Glycemic Control and the Complications of Diabetes, Type 2", with high vascular disease event rates. These collaborations provide a unique opportunity to address the pathogenesis of accelerated atherogenesis in the two main types of diabetes, and will greatly augment the scientific knowledge that will be gained in the conduct of these world-class prospective trials. METHODS: The Program Project has 4 projects and 3 cores. Project 1 will assess lipoproteins, glycoxidative stress, and inflammation as risk factors in studies involving Type 2 Diabetes patients and cultured cell systems. Based on preliminary data from our initial studies Type 1 patients, changes in the NMR lipoprotein subclass profile will be emphasized. Project 2 will elucidate interactions between inflammation, modifications of lipoproteins, and autoimmunity in vascular disease risk. These novel concepts are also based upon exciting preliminary data pertaining to LDL-antibody complexes. Project 3 will pursue interesting preliminary data and define the role of the kallikrein-kinin system in vascular disease complications, with effects on mitogenesis and matrix production. Project 4 will assess the role of the Insulin Resistance Syndrome and novel factors secreted from adipocytes in the pathophysiology of biochemical risk factors and cardiovascular complications. Cores include an Administrative Core, a Biostatistics and Epidemiology Core which will link with the trials data coordinating centers, and Molecular and Statistical Genetics Core. Investigators will work in close collaboration with the VA Executive Committee, Study Centers, the Hines Coordinating Center, and some of the other ancillary studies. All data analysis involving clinical outcomes will be performed at the Hines Coordinating Center. There is true synergism among the projects at both scientific and logistical levels. The Program Project design allows for interactions among multidisciplinary investigators studying the same cohort, which will define how multiple pathological processes interact at the level of the arterial wall to promote atherosclerosis.

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.

NCT00938405
This is a prospective, randomized, double blind, parallel, placebo controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of colesevelam HCl in reducing LDL in subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus over a 12 week treatment period. The aim is to highlight the effect of colesevelam on LDL cholesterol and glycemia in a type 1 diabetic population. The colesevelam group is anticipated to demonstrate a mean reduction in LDL by 10% compared to the placebo group, indicated by A1c and glycemic target range CGM readings.
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.
NCT01039324
The purpose of this study is to improve patient care and safety while decreasing ED visit rates by sending specific information about care transitions related to hospital admission and discharge and emergency department and specialty care visits to primary care practices, care managers and patients with the use of health information technology (HIT) shared across a community-based network of providers. Cycle 1 focuses on the impact of notices about ED encounters and hospitalizations derived from billing data that are sent to care managers for all 47,000 patients in the Northern Piedmont Community Care Network (NPCCN). Cycle 2 explores the impact of letters sent to patients, and care event reports sent to a patient's medical home in addition to notices sent to care managers about ED encounters, hospitalization and specialty care based on ADT (Admission Discharge Transfer) and billing data on 4,600 patients with complex health needs.
