Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The age-related loss of muscle mass and function, sarcopenia, has several deleterious effects, such as a reduction in the quality of life and an increase in the incidence of falls, often leading to hospitalisation. The prevalence of sarcopenia is unclear but is estimated to be between 4.6 and 7.9% and the loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is accelerated in people with type 2 diabetes. With the percentage of older people and the percentage of people with type 2 diabetes predicted to rise in coming years it is crucial to develop therapies to increase muscle mass and function. Alterations in nutrition have also been suggested to be of therapeutic use in sarcopenia. Epidemiological data showed that the consumption of fatty fish is positively associated with muscle function in older population, indicating a potential role for long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCn-3 PUFA) in increasing muscle mass and function in older people. The aim of the current study, therefore, is to determine the effects of krill oil supplementation on muscle size and function in adults with muscle weakness and type 2 diabetes.

This is a multi-center, open-label study to assess the feasibility and preliminary safety of the Endogenex Device for endoscopic duodenal mucosal regeneration in patients with type 2 Diabetes inadequately controlled on 2-3 non-insulin glucose-lowering medications.

The risk of type 2 diabetes appears to be higher in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases, including chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD is a group of inflammatory diseases that includes mainly Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Although the majority of IBD patients are not overweight, the prevalence of obesity in this population remains significant, estimated at 15 to 40%. It has been shown that obesity can impact the response to therapies used in IBD as well as the clinical course of the disease: 1) plasma concentrations of immunomodulatory therapies are often lower in the obese compared to those with a normal Body Mass Index (BMI) with a lower dose per kg of the administered drug as well as an acceleration of drug clearance. 2nd) Surgical management of IBD is associated with a higher risk of peri- and post-operative complications in obese patients, including an increase in operating time, bleeding risk, length of hospital stay and percentage of post-operative infections. 3e) Finally, obesity seems to have a negative impact on the clinical course of IBD, with a correlation between an increase in BMI and an increase in the number of hospitalizations, the number of follow-up consultations and the need for therapeutic escalation. One of the common pathophysiological explanations between IBD and metabolic syndrome (including type 2 diabetes and obesity), would involve metabolites in the gut that are modulated by the gut microbiota. Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (aGLP1) analogues are a new class of injectable antidiabetic drugs that have revolutionized the management of type 2 diabetes. They include exenatide, lixisenatide, liraglutide, dulaglutide and semaglutide. They combine an effect on glycemic control but also usually a weight loss. In some countries, they are used in non-diabetic obese patients, with a weight loss of up to -10 to -15%. These molecules bind to GLP1 receptors, stimulate insulin secretion when blood glucose levels are high, decrease glucagon secretion, slow gastric emptying and stimulate satiety. In addition to glycemic control, weight reduction is most often associated. In addition, some aGLP1s have been shown to reduce cardiovascular events in diabetics. They are well tolerated, but their side effects are mainly digestive, such as nausea, vomiting and sometimes diarrhea. These problems occur in about 20% of cases, most often after the first injection, with vomiting requiring permanent cessation of treatment. Most often they gradually subside, spontaneously or after symptomatic treatment, and allow titration of the drug. Due to the lack of studies and possible intestinal effects, aGLP1 is not recommended in cases of severe gastrointestinal disease, and therefore in cases of IBD, although it is not contraindicated. The main objective of this study is to test the interest of these GLP1 analogues in type 2 diabetics with IBD, who are overweight and whose glycemic target is not reached. The expected benefit is to facilitate diabetes control and weight loss in this population. The second objective is to monitor the occurrence of adverse events in this population with the different GLP1 analogues used.

Diabetes care is complex and requires a multidimensional approach, but interventional programs are difficult to initiate in low-income and minority populations. In the proposed study, investigators will mentor local clinics via telehealth to initiate our diabetes program, TIME (Telehealth-supported, Integrated CHWs, Medication-access, group visit Education), into their clinics. Mentoring local clinics to initiate TIME is a promising strategy to enhance sustainable diabetes care and reduce disparities in vulnerable minority populations.

This study aims to provide essential mechanistic insights into natriuretic and hemodynamic effects of SGLT2i and GLP-1RA agents in T2D patients. Ultimately, by obtaining physiological data in T2D patients without HF, our aims are to gain insight into how the use of this combined therapy may be used in T2D with HF in future work.

The Revita® system is being investigated to assess the efficacy of DMR versus Sham on improvement in Glycemic, Hepatic and Cardiovascular endpoints for patients with Type 2 Diabetes who are inadequately controlled with insulin therapy. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of the Fractyl DMR Procedure using the Revita® System compared to a sham. Subjects randomized to the DMR procedure will be followed per protocol till 48 weeks post treatment. Subjects in the Sham treatment arm will be offered cross over to receive the DMR treatment at 48 weeks and will be followed per protocol for 48 weeks post treatment.

Our goal of the study is to learn the effects of the diabetes medication named Pioglitazone, in type-2 diabetic obese participants with Heart failure. The main question it aims to answer are: To demonstrate that impaired mitochondrial function leading to reduced ATP generation plays a key pathophysiologic role in the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in obese type 2 diabetic (T2D) individuals. To demonstrate that pioglitazone, improves diastolic (as well as systolic) function by improving myocardial insulin sensitivity and by reducing both myocardial and epicardial fat content.

This study will help determine the effect of Glucagon Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1)receptor agonists on bone strength in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)

This study is a randomized, positive drug parallel-controlled clinical trial in participants with glucose and lipid metabolism disturbances. A total of 96 participants will be recruited for the study, all of whom are diagnosed as type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with dyslipidemia. The subjects will be divided randomly into two groups and treated with either Jiangtang Tiaozhi Recipe or metformin. After 12 weeks of treatment, therapeutic effect of Jiangtang Tiaozhi Recipe will be evaluated based on the changes of HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose, blood lipid, waist circumference, body mass index.

This study compares 2 medicines for type 2 diabetes: semaglutide (new medicine) and a dummy medicine (placebo). Semaglutide will be tested to see how well it works compared to the dummy medicine. The study will also test if semaglutide is safe in children and teenagers. Participants will either get semaglutide or the dummy medicine - which one is decided by chance. Participants will take 1 tablet of the study medicine every morning on an empty stomach. They have to wait 30 minutes before they eat, drink or take any other medication by mouth. The study will last for about 1 year and 3 months (66 weeks). Participants will have 12 clinic visits and 8 phone calls with the study doctor. At all 12 clinic visits, participants will have blood samples taken. Participants will also be asked some questions.
