Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of the study is to compare rates of neonatal hypoglycemia with maternal NPH vs determir use.

The aim of this multicentre, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, 3-arm parallel group, interventional study is to assess for the first time the effects of either a combined therapy with the antihyperglycemic drugs semaglutide and empagliflozin or empagliflozin monotherapy compared to placebo as potential treatments for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in patients with type 2 diabetes.

The overall aim of the study is to evaluate a digital lifestyle intervention that has been developed in an academic setting at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. The tool is based on self-affirmation theory and has large emphasis on self-reflection to enable sustainable lifestyle changes. The effects of the tool on HbA1c, reflecting long-term blood glucose, will be evaluated in patients with type 2 diabetes. The study will contain two phases. The study consists of a three-month period in which participants are randomly assigned to usual care or access to the intervention tool, followed by an open-label three-year observation period during which participants have access to the tool in addition to ordinary healthcare and are compared with matched controls on usual care.

Phase IIIb, randomized, longitudinal, prospective, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the fixed-dose combination atorvastatin / fenofibrate versus atorvastatin on the lipid profile of patients with type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia.

Overweight and obesity are today considered among the most important health risks facing humanity with more than one in two adults overweight or obese in western countries. In addition, Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a common comorbidity associated with overweight and obesity and counts for 5% of the French population under 65 years of age and 15% in people over 65 years old. Despite the accumulation of scientific evidence supporting the benefits of physical activity, obese and diabetic people remain insufficiently active and current programs struggle to engage and sustain physical activity of patients over long periods of time. It is therefore urgent to develop interventions that can effectively change individuals' behavior. In this context, "e-health" interventions and gamification appear to be a particularly promising avenue to improve physical activity and reduce attrition rates of current programs. This clinical trial aim to test the effectiveness of a digital intervention based on gamification and teamwork in comparison to a supervised physical activity program. The investigators hypothesized that the intervention will be efficient by the development of a self-determined motivation through the process of gamification on the one hand. On the other hand, through the in-group collaboration with other people who share the same stigmatized criteria that will help participants to overcome weight stigmas, acting generally as physical activity barriers.

The number of people with diabetes rose from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014. Diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke and lower limb amputation. Current challenges in diabetes management include: (1) optimizing the use of currently available therapies to ensure adequate glycemic control and to reduce complications; (2) educating patients on diabetes self-management; (3) improving patient adherence to lifestyle and pharmacologic interventions; ; and (4) reducing barriers to the early use of insulin. In this research, the impact of pharmaceutical care and Insulin staging will be evaluated in patients with type 2 diabetes to overcome this challenges. The concept of "pharmaceutical care" was first introduced by Helper and Strand in 1990, pushing for the transformation of the Pharmacy profession from "product-focused" to "patient-centric". Pharmaceutical care is a patient-centered practice in which the practitioner assumes responsibility for a patient's drug-related needs and is held accountable for this commitment. Due to the progressive nature of the disease, which requires timely optimization of treatment, leading in a majority of cases to insulin therapy, so that proper use of insulin is one of the critical tools for prevention of long-term complications. From the hundred patients in this study, half of the patients will be the control group without any intervention, and pharmaceutical care and insulin staging will be applied on the remaining. In this research two strategies will be applied including pharmaceutical care process and Insulin Staging approach on patients with T2DM, those who are on end stage treatment.

Study Objective To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Empagliflozin with or without metformin in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus in the Pakistani population. Study design Open-label, prospective, observational, single arm, multi-center, post-marketing surveillance study. Sample size The estimated sample size will be n=156. Duration of study 12 months (data lock point will be completion of 6 months' follow-up from the time of last patient's enrollment date) Safety Assessment: Patient will be monitored for Hypoglycemia, Dehydration, Hypotension, Urinary Tract Infections, Fungal Infections, Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Abdominal Discomfort, Flatulence, Asthenia, Indigestion and Other side effects (if any). Follow up visits: After recruitment, patient is supposed to have three visits for follow-ups. Visit 1: 4 to 6 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 02: At 12 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 03: At 24 weeks of initiation of therapy. LABORATORY TESTING: Reputable Lab is considered for laboratory testing of diabetes patients i.e. HbA1C%, FBG, RFT and urine R/E. The certified clinical lab will be responsible for receiving and analyzing clinical sample. Patients will have special discount of upto 50% for study related laboratory investigations. Where in Urine Routine Examination (Urine R/E), we consider as follows: Visual Examination: Urine color: Normal (Yellow), Pale Yellow, Dark Yellow, Brown, Red or Pink or any other. Urine clarity: Clear, slightly Cloudy, cloudy or turbidity Chemical Examination: Specific gravity pH Bilirubin Urobilinogen Protein Ketone Leukocyte Esterase Microscopic Examination: Red Blood Cells: Epithelial Cells: Amorphous: Pus Cells Bacteria Yeast Casts Crystals Where in Renal Function Test (RFT), we consider as follows: Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): mg/dL Serum Creatinine: mg/dL Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): mL/min/1.73 m2

The study in the T2DM population is intended to confirm the lanifibranor effect versus placebo on glycemic control and assess a positive effect of the combination of lanifibranor with an SGLT2 inhibitor on glycemic control.

In this study, we will assess the change of extended renin-angiotensin system including serum ACE-2 and angiotensin(1-7) levels and subclinical atherosclerosis after using fimasartan (an ARB), compared to amlodipine in hypertensive patients with T2DM.

We hypothesize that the combination of a nutritional education intervention with a HIIT-based physical exercise program improve muscle metabolism through positive modifications of gut microbiota in people with T2DM, leading to better glycaemia/insulinaemia levels, reduction of body fat mass and improving quality of life. The project is a randomized controlled clinical trial in 120 participants with T2DM and obesity, which aims to determine the efficacy of a nutritional education program and the role of physical exercise type on health related variables. The participants will be of both sexes with age between 40 and 55 years, belonging to the Province of Cádiz. The design has two 12-week interventions; the main factor has 2 levels: participants who receive the nutritional education (EDU) and controls (CG); the second factor has 3 levels: high-intensity interval training (HIIT), moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), and controls (INACT). Therefore, participants will be randomized into 6 groups (n=20), adjusted by gender (≈50% in each group): EDU+HIIT, EDU+MICT, EDU+INACT, CG+HIIT, CG+MICT, CG+INACT. The outcome variables, which will be measured before and after the intervention, will include: dietary intake assessment, physical activity assessment, quality of life, faecal samples, blood samples, blood pressure, appetite assessment, muscle biopsy samples, body composition and fluids, basal metabolism, maximal fat oxidation test and cardiorespiratory fitness.
