Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

To assess the TANTALUS therapy in type 2 diabetic patients who can not tolerate GLP-1 agonist due to unacceptable side effects; and to assess the TANTALUS therapy in type 2 diabetic patients who do not sufficiently benefit from GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the rosiglitazone/glimepiride fixed-dose combination tablet will safely and effectively control glycemia as first-line oral therapy in drug naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes. This 24-week study will compare the effects of treatment with rosiglitazone/glimepiride to treatment with glimepiride alone. The primary objective is to demonstrate superiority of rosiglitazone/glimepiride to glimepiride in lowering Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c).

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of a blood pressure medication, Lisinopril, or similar drugs in that class, on the flow of blood to the kidneys. In this study, we will compare blood flow to the kidneys in healthy people that do not have diabetes or kidney disease with people that have diabetes and evidence of kidney disease.

to assess the effect of treatment with Sitagliptin (MK0431) on HbA1c (Hemoglobin A1c) and the safety and tolerability of Sitagliptin.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of dutogliptin over 26 weeks (as evidenced by placebo-corrected changes in HbA1c relative to baseline), to demonstrate safety and tolerability of dutogliptin, and to demonstrate changes in fasting plasma glucose over 26 weeks.

The study will assess the efficacy and tolerability of MK0736 in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension who are on ongoing therapy with Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme or Angiotensin Receptor Blocker. After a 3 to 5 week pre-randomization phase, patients will be randomized to either MK0736 (3 doses), placebo, or hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ). The study will also include a 3 week, posttreatment follow-up period.

The purpose of this study is to help answer the following questions: To test if taking LY2599506 for 12 weeks controls blood sugar better than taking placebo for 12 weeks. To evaluate the safety of LY2599506 in participants with diabetes. To determine if LY2599506 has the ability to control blood sugar in participants with diabetes. To determine how much LY2599506 should be given to participants. To determine if LY2599506 has an effect on a participant's weight. The study design consists of 4 study periods: a screening period, a 4-week dose adjustment period, an 8-week treatment period, and a 4-week follow-up period.

This study will answer two separate questions. The first question is to test the cardiovascular effects of long-term treatment with rosiglitazone or pioglitazone when used as part of standard of care compared to similar standard of care without rosiglitazone or pioglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes who have a history of or are at risk for cardiovascular disease. The second question will compare the effects of long-term supplementation of vitamin D on death and cancer

The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of TAK-559, once daily (QD), in treating subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

This was a four month dose ranging study followed by a 24 to 48 month extension at the selected dose to characterize the safety and efficacy of the injectable IL-1B (interleukin 1, beta) antagonist canakinumab in the treatment of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) already treated on maximum dose metformin.
