About this trial
This is an interventional basic science trial for Diabetes Mellitus, Type II
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Type 2 diabetes of at least one year's duration; stable glycemic control (no more than 1.0% change in HbA1c in the previous six months, but no limit on HbA1c)
- Triglycerides >150 mg/dL (in the previous six months)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Previous use of Fenofibrate or other fibrates
- Pregnancy
- Active malignancy
- Recent cardiac event or congestive heart failure
- Active liver disease
- Significant renal impairment (serum creatinine > 2mg/dl)
Sites / Locations
- Medical University of South Carolina

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Individual Plasma Proteins That Changed From Baseline to End-point Based on Limma T-Test of Protein Abundance as Determined by Proteomic Analysis Via Liquid Chromatography-mass Spectrometry
Protein exclusive intensity values (counts/second) were normalized using cyclic loess normalization. Mean protein abundance as determined by the intensity for each protein was determined. 95% confidence intervals were calculated as a measure of dispersion. Paired means were compared using a Limma T-test and the p-value was adjusted for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini-Hochberg method. Mean Log2 Fold Change was calculated for each protein compared between 6 weeks and baseline. The number of proteins that changed between 6 weeks and baseline was zero.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Diabetic complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, and nerves are difficult to arrest once in progress. Recent evidence that fenofibrate confers a robust yet unexpected benefit in diabetic retinopathy offers an important translational research opportunity. The investigator's global proteomic study will provide new clues as to how fenofibrate protects vulnerable tissues, and will spur discovery of targets for new therapeutic interventions.

Intervention Description
40 patients (20 males and 20 females) aged 18-70 years, with type 2 diabetes and triglycerides >150 mg/dL will be recruited. They will have a physical exam and blood draw at visit 1. Participants will receive 160 mg fenofibrate to be taken orally daily for six weeks. They will return for a second visit after 6 weeks and have blood draw as follow up.
