Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

A prospective interventional trial for 9 months will be carried out on 300 type-2 diabetes mellitus volunteer patients who are above 18-year-old and participants will be selected through consecutive sampling and will be evaluated on the basis of glycemic index and history of patients. Selected parameters will be measured at baseline and after the 12 weeks of therapy. Statistical analysis will be carried out by SPSS, ANOVA, and t-test. From this experimental design, we are expecting improvement in the management of glycemic index, reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and reduction in weight GLP-1 naive patients.

This is a randomized controlled study to assess the effect of choline fenofibrate compared with policosanol in Korean T2DM patients with asymptomatic atherosclerosis.

Cardiovascular events remain a major driver of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diffuse coronary atherosclerosis, combined with impairment of the microcirculation are frequent even in asymptomatic patients and can lead to unfavourable outcomes. In recent years, novel classes of antidiabetic drugs have been introduced, with salutary effects on cardiovascular outcomes of diabetic patients. The sodium-glucose linked transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors - gliflozins - bind to the SGLT2 receptors of the proximal tubule of the nephron and cause glycosuria. They have been shown to have favourable cardiovascular effects by reducing deaths from cardiovascular causes in type 2 diabetic patients. Moreover, dapagliflozin reduces hospitalisation for heart failure in type 2 diabetic heart failure patients with and without reduced ejection fraction and reduces cardiovascular death and all causes mortality in those with reduced ejection fraction. It is currently unknown if this is mediated by improvement of coronary physiology both at the level of the epicardial coronary arteries as well as the coronary microcirculation. The purpose of the study is to explore the impact of dapagliflozin on the coronary and microcirculatory function of type 2 diabetic patients.

A three month meal replacement dietary system which combines meal replacements and self-prepared meals which hypothetically will result in Diabetes remission in >30% of intervention subjects To assess the efficacy of which patients with Type 2 Diabetes (non insulin dependent) can be brought into a optimal A1C remission state without the use of medications by achieving clinically significant weight loss (>20-30 pounds) using a proprietary meal replacement system associated with a 3-month intensive lifestyle program.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus is a challenge for health care systems as the numbers increases constantly. In 2014, 422 million people had been living with diabetes worldwide. The absolute numbers of people with prediabetes have also grown substantially over 25 years worldwide. In Germany, about 10% of the population has T2D and another 21 % of the population has prediabetes.Overall, 16% of all deaths in Germany are attributable to type 2 diabetes. Macro- and microvascular complications of diabetes imply a significant threat for the patients and are already present in the prediabetic state. Short term and long term complications, the burden of treatment, and reduced quality of life are major burdens of the disease. Accumulating data indicate that currently recommended therapeutic diet regimens in patients with obesity and diabetes are not sustainable on the long term. Novel concepts are therefore urgently needed. T2D occurs when insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells cannot sufficiently be increased to compensate for insulin resistance. Causes of beta-cell dysfunction are heterogeneous. In addition, the most important determinants of diabetes remission are the extend of weight loss and restoration of beta-cell function. In the course of diabetes progression, the inability to recover insulin secretion might identify the state of no return to normal glucose tolerance. It is therefore crucial to improve insulin secretion in treatment and prevention of diabetes. Up to now lifestyle intervention trials in prediabetes or pharmacological intervention trials in diabetes did not show improvement of insulin secretion after intervention. However, one recent small human trial shows that intermittent fasting (early time restricted fasting) is able to improve insulin secretion.Currently, there are no trials that examine the effect of intermittent fasting in individuals with a broad range of impaired glucose metabolism (from prediabetes to diabetes). Recently novel subtypes of diabetes and prediabetes with high risk for the early manifestation of diabetes complications have been identified. Currently, prevention strategies for this high risk individuals have not been examined yet. We will study for the first time the effectiveness of 4 weeks intermittent fasting on changes in insulin secretion capacity in subphenotypes of diabetes and in prediabetes.

Trial Title A randomized, double blind sham controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of vestibular nerve stimulation (VeNS), together with a lifestyle modification program, compared to a sham control with a lifestyle modification program, as a means of improving glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of non-invasive electrical vestibular nerve stimulation (VeNS), together with a lifestyle modification program, as a method of reducing HbA1c, as compared to a sham control. Allocation: Randomized to either active device or control device usage. All subjects will receive the same lifestyle advice. Endpoint classification: Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment in 1:1 active to control allocation Trial Participants: Those who have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sample Size: The aim is to recruit a total of 200 participants. Planned Trial Period: The study will last 24 weeks in total for each subject. The primary analysis will be conducted at the 24 weeks timepoint. The study in total is estimated to take about 1.5 years to complete.

There is a fundamental gap in understanding the maternal and neonatal effects of antenatal corticosteroid (ACS) administration in women with threatened preterm birth (PTB) who have diabetes. Since the initial discovery of ACS for neonatal benefit in 1972, more than 40 randomized controlled trials have been performed evaluating its efficacy. However, none of these trials have included women with T2DM, and there is limited data among women with gestational diabetes. While ACS have been shown to reduce neonatal morbidity associated with PTB in non-diabetic women, the side effects of ACS (maternal hyperglycemia and fetal hyperinsulinemia) may mitigate the neonatal benefit of ACS in women with diabetes. Before neonatal benefit of ACS can be evaluated in this population, the first step is to optimize maternal glycemic control after ACS. Previous studies evaluating maternal hyperglycemia after ACS have been limited by small sample size, retrospective study design, or insufficient glucose data. Use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in a randomized clinical trial provides a unique opportunity to overcome these challenges. Our long-term goal is to improve maternal and child health among women with diabetes as an independently funded clinical researcher. The research objectives of this proposal are to test the efficacy of three treatment strategies at achieving maternal glycemic control after ACS and evaluate the association between maternal glycemic control and neonatal outcomes. Our central hypothesis is that treatment with a continuous insulin infusion will improve maternal glycemic control, which is key to improving neonatal outcomes, but at the cost of less patient satisfaction and more health resource utilization. This hypothesis will be tested by pursuing the following specific aims: 1) Test the efficacy of three treatment strategies (addition of sliding scale insulin, up-titration of home insulin, and continuous insulin infusion) at achieving maternal glycemic control after ACS and 2) Quantify the association between maternal glycemic control after ACS and neonatal morbidity. Completion of these aims will determine the optimal strategy to achieve maternal glycemic control after ACS and inform a larger, multicenter trial to improve neonatal outcomes among women with diabetes and threatened PTB.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, Vildagliptin and Placebo-Controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral administration of 100 mg of PB-201 in the morning and evening in treatmentnaive patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common complication of obesity patients. According to previous literature reports, weight loss and metabolic surgery are powerful means to treat obesity complicated with T2DM. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the standard operation recommended by the international society. One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) was recommended by IFSO（the International Federation for the Surgery of OBESITY AND METABOLIC DISORDERS ） in 2018. In this study, two kinds of metabolic surgery will be compared. At present, focusing on the above two operations, only two effective randomized controlled clinical studies have been carried out, among which one single-center clinical study has been followed up for 2 years, and the primary end point is weight loss; Another multicenter study, with a 2-year follow-up, showed that the primary end point was weight loss, and the secondary index was the effectiveness of two surgical methods in the treatment of T2DM.There is still a lack of evidence-based evidence for the effectiveness and safety of the two surgical methods in the treatment of T2DM. This study will make high-level evidence about the advantages and disadvantages of OAGB and RYGB in the treatment of T2DM. In this study, a number of centers with rich experience and clinical research experience in weight loss and metabolic surgery in Asia will be combined to complete the enrollment of 248 patients. Those who meet the standards will be randomly divided into two kinds of operations, and they will be followed up for 5 years on schedule. The rate of lost follow-up is controlled within 20%, and the data integrity is controlled within 95%. Taking the blood glucose remission rate of type 2 diabetes as the main observation index, the prospective verification shows that OAGB is clinically effective in treating obesity with type 2 diabetes compared with RYGB.

In this project, the investigators will perform a multicenter randomised controlled trial to determine whether advice to consume a moderate, whole food-based low-carbohydrate high-fat (LCHF) ad libitum diet (CarbCount program) can produce and maintain equal remission rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) as a nutritionally complete very-low-calorie formula diet followed by a energy-restrictive (i.e., calorie counting) diet (DiRECT principles). Within the principles of each approach, the dietary goals and change will be adjusted according to individual needs/capabilities conducive to long-term adherence. Furthermore, the investigators aim to determine whether the rate of diet-induced remission is reflected in/can be predicted by baseline or diet-induced changes in glucose variability (e.g., time-in-range measured by continuous glucose monitoring) and other factors such as anthropometric changes and genetic susceptibility. Each center will also conduct locally-lead standalone mechanistic research, including analyses of intra-abdominal/hepatic fat accumulation, adipose tissue biopsies and/or measurements of energy metabolism. Additionally, changes in medication use, nutritional status, cardiovascular disease risk, as well as adverse events, will be monitored.
