Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

This study was not conducted in the United States. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and effectiveness of a number of doses of vildagliptin, an unapproved drug, in the treatment of people with type 2 diabetes.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that telmisartan 80 mg combined with hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg (T80/H12.5) is at least as effective and possibly superior to valsartan 160 mg combined with hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg (V160/H12.5) in lowering mean ambulatory systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) during the last 6 hours of the 24-hour dosing interval at the end of a 10-week treatment period in mild-to-moderate hypertensive, overweight or obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

This is a phase IIIb, randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, study in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coexisting vascular disease or hypertension. The total duration of the study will be approximately 60 weeks. The aim of this study is to examine the potential beneficial effects of rosiglitazone on carotid atheroma in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coexisting vascular disease or hypertension. It is hypothesised that treatment with rosiglitazone will lead to an decrease in plaque size. In addition, it is hoped that rosiglitazone will have a positive effect on plaque composition and stability.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of topiramate compared with placebo in obese, Type 2 diabetic patients on a controlled diet.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this research study is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and in blood glucose levels) of insulin detemir, insulin aspart and biphasic insulin aspart 30, when added to current OAD (oral anti-diabetic drug) treatment in subjects with type 2 diabetes and to verify the safety of use (number and severity of episodes of hypoglycaemia, body weight and side effects).

This trial is conducted in Europe. The objective of the study is to investigate the effect and safety of continously basal delivered insulin aspart given by a pump versus once daily injection of insulin glargine.

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of the trial is to compare the glycaemic control of Insulin glargine versus Biphasic Insulin Aspart 30/70 or Biphasic Insulin Aspart 30/70 in combination with metformin in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether MC-1 alone and in combination with an ACE inhibitor is effective in reducing blood pressure and metabolic dysfunctions associated with diabetes

This study evaluates the effect of medicines for type 2 diabetes and lipids control. This study will require about 6 office visits for lab tests and examinations. All study related medicines and medical examinations will be provided at no cost to the subjects.

Abnormalities in peripheral glucose regulation and type 2 diabetes can occur more commonly in individuals with schizophrenia than in healthy subjects or in other psychiatric conditions. Antipsychotic treatment may contribute significantly to abnormalities in glucose regulation. Hyperglycemia can contribute to long-term cardiovascular disease risk that may already be increased in patients with schizophrenia due to higher rates of smoking, sedentary life style, obesity and under-treated hypertension and dyslipidemia. This project will characterize the effects on glucose control of the two most commonly prescribed newer antipsychotic medications, risperidone and olanzapine, in patients with schizophrenia. This proposal specifically hypothesizes that olanzapine treatment will be associated with decreases in insulin sensitivity (SI), without effects on insulin secretion. Treatment-related effects on glucose effectiveness (SG) will be explored.
