Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

There were evidences that the non-immune mediated inflammatory pathways of cell damage occurred in vitro in human islets upon hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Autologous stem cell therapies were an emerging set of therapies that showed promise with a low side effect profile. we hypothesized that infusion of mononuclear cells from buffy coat obtained from bone marrow might provide multiple signals for regeneration and inflammation-induced lesion recovery of local tissues, of which the effect might be maximized by intra-arterial pancreatic infusion through angiography and combination with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This trail includes a foregoing sub-trial that investigate the feasibility and safety of a novel method for massive bone marrow collection. The traditional BM collecting procedure is unfavorable because it yields minor bone marrow. Studies have shown that physiological exercise can increase bone marrow blood flow, which might facilitate BM collection. We plan to include a total of 60 patients with type 2 diabetes and randomly assign them to either a control group or an exercise group (n =30 each). The patients in the exercise group exercised 30 minutes before the operation. All patients underwent routine surgical care. The collected BM volume, operation time, collecting speed , puncture times and pain scores during the operation were recorded. Bone marrow samples were tested for CD34+ flow cytometry and whole blood cell count.

The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of TAK-559, once daily (QD), in Type 2 Diabetes subjects.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of pioglitazone, once daily (QD), and glimepiride combination therapy compared to glimepiride monotherapy in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes.

This study was the extension of the LANTU_C_02761 study named EASIE and identified as NCT00751114 (core study comparing insulin glargine versus sitagliptin in insulin-naïve patients treated with metformin and not adequately controlled). All patients with Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 7% at the end of the core study had the possibility to enter this extension study if they met the other inclusion criteria and did not present with any exclusion criteria. The visit 14 of the core study (week 24) was the visit 1 (baseline, week 0) of the extension study which consisted of a 12-week treatment period. The objectives of this extension study were: To assess the glycemic control (HbA1c <7%) of a 3-month combination therapy with metformin, insulin glargine and sitagliptin in patients not adequately controlled by a previous treatment with metformin plus either insulin glargine or sitagliptin. To assess the effect of insulin glargine in combination with sitagliptin on HbA1c level, fasting plasma glucose, 7-point glucose profile, hypoglycemia occurrence, body weight and overall safety.

The purpose of this study is to determine if by using insulin analog (Glargine and lispro insulin) with an insulin pen the investigators are able to obtain a higher rate of correct timing of insulin and food administration as when compared to the usual therapy (insulin NPH and regular) with syringes.

The present study is the first stage of a research program whose ultimate goal is to conduct a randomized clinical trial involving type 2 diabetics with BMI from 30.0 to 39.9 kg/m2. This program will determine the relative effectiveness of RYGB combined with intensive medical management (IMM), versus IMM alone, in reducing CVD event rates and mortality in patients with poorly controlled diabetes. IMM will include rigorous lifestyle modification for weight loss and stepped pharmacologic treatment for diabetes and other CVD risk factors. The proposed study is a randomized trial which will provide an assessment of the efficacy of treatment, in reducing CVD risk factors and also assessing the feasibility, cost, and safety of a larger trial.

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

This study is designed to assess the efficacy of the different dosage forms of Valsartan[80, 160, and 320 mg] in reducing microalbuminuria/proteinuria in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes.

The purpose of this research study is to look at concentrations of GSK189075 in blood when different long and short acting forms of the drug are taken by mouth. The results will help to decide whether a long-acting form of GSK189075 can be made. The effects of the drug on the body and safety will also be studied.

A study to assess the safety and efficacy of sitagliptin 100mg compared to sitagliptin 200mg in patients with type 2 diabetes.
