Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, Japan and South America. The aim of the trial is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of NN1250 (insulin degludec ([Deg]) with insulin detemir (IDet), both combined with insulin aspart. The main period is registered internally at Novo Nordisk as NN1250-3585 while the extension period is registered as NN1250-3725.

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether remote monitoring in diabetes management is more effective at helping patients manage their disease than a standard disease management program.

A large population-based study has shown diabetes to be an independent risk factor for colon cancer compared to the general population. Thus, the completion of an adequately prepped colonoscopy is requisite in providing diabetics with adequate colon cancer screening. Recent data has shown that diabetic patients have poorer response to bowel cleansing compared to non-diabetics (with a standard PEG prep, only 62% of diabetic patients had their colonoscopy preps rated as good or better vs. 97% of normal patients, p<0.001). This may be due to the fact that a majority of diabetic patients report constipation as a common gastrointestinal complaint. We postulate that lubiprostone (Amitiza), in combination with PEG, will have additional efficacy over standard PEG preparation, and provide optimal safe and effective colonic cleansing for diabetics.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the blood glucose lowering effect of NN1250 (insulin degludec) in young and elderly subjects with type 1 diabetes.

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and the safety of insulin glulisine in type I Diabetes Melittus (DM) patients Secondary Objective: To evaluate the insulin glulisine doses To assess the patient satisfaction

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim is to compare changes in blood sugar and the number of periods where carbohydrate supplementation is needed to treat low blood sugar, during two different treatments with NN1250 (insulin degludec), a soluble insulin basal analogue (SIBA) in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

Protein kinase C (PKC), an enzyme in the body, has been implicated in the process of diabetic microvascular complications. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the renal hemodynamic and peripheral vascular effects of PKC inhibition with ruboxistaurin mesylate (an inhibitor of PKC) in patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus and evidence of early nephropathy. In this pilot study, 21 patients with type 1 diabetes were planned to be randomized to LY333531 or placebo in a 2:1 fashion, after an initial period of testing. After 8 weeks of study drug, patients were retested.

The trial is conducted in Europe and Africa. The aim of the trial is to compare the use of insulin detemir twice daily combined with mealtime insulin aspart against that of insulin glargine once daily combined with mealtime insulin aspart. The trial involves patients with Type 1 Diabetes.

Primary objective: To compare metabolic control as measured by Blood Glucose (BG) upon arising from bed (7:00 am - 12:00 pm) in type 1 Diabetes mellitus patients who skip the morning meal during treatment with MDI basal/bolus insulin: Difference of change of blood glucose between 7:00 am and 11:00 am between patients on Insulin glargine and NPH insulin. Secondary objective: To perform an evaluation between the two patient groups for BG (10:00 pm and 12:00 pm) as well as for serum insulin, free fatty acid levels and β-hydroxybutyrate (7:00 am - 12:00 pm).

This research project is supported by a multicentric network of collaborators whose goal is to assess the efficacy of transplanting allogenic pancreas islets to restore insulin secretion in patients with brittle type 1, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and to improve their metabolic control.
