Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNTO 3649 following a single dose in healthy adults and following multiple doses in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the blood sugar lowering effect and the safety profile of biphasic insulin aspart 30 compared to biphasic human insulin 30, both in combination with metformin in Chinese insulin-naive subjects with type 2 diabetes when failing on oral antidiabetic drug (OAD) therapy.

This 3 arm, placebo-controlled study will investigate the effect of Taspoglutide on gastric emptying in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be randomized into one of 3 groups to receive a)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 12 weeks b)10mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg Taspoglutide sc weekly for 8 weeks or c) placebo sc weekly for 12 weeks, with all injections administered in the abdomen.Gastric emptying will be assessed by a paracetamol test at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

A multicenter, multinational, randomized,double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Patients with inadequate glycemic control using diet and exercise alone, or in combination with metformin, will be enrolled. The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that LY2428757 given to patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone, or metformin monotherapy, produces a significant decrease in the mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to endpoint at 12 weeks as compared to placebo. Trial consists of 12 weeks of double-blind treatment and 4-week safety follow-up.

to determine safety, efficacy and tolerability of BI 1356 versus placebo

An intestinal hormone called Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) is released into the blood immediately after ingestion of a meal and plays an important role in regulating blood sugar levels. However, GIP is not active in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which is also known as adult onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes. This study is being conducted to determine whether a hormone called xenin-25 can restore the activity of GIP in persons with T2DM.

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this clinical trial is to assess and compare the effect on blood sugar control of insulin detemir and insulin aspart or insulin detemir alone administered by a insulin pen PDS290 (FlexTouch®) versus a Novo Nordisk marketed insulin pen (FlexPen®) in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Furthermore, the subject's preference of the devices will be investigated by the use of questionnaires.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two dosing regimens of FG-3019 administered over 12 weeks in patients with diabetic nephropathy and proteinuria on background angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) and/or angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARB) therapy.

This 4 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to sitagliptin and placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10mg once weekly or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly), sitagliptin 100mg once daily or placebo, in a ratio of 2:2:2:1, in addition to their continued prestudy metformin treatment. After 24 weeks of treatment, patients on active treatment will continue on the same treatment and patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide 10mg once weekly or taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg once weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.

The purpose of this study is to determine if exenatide will improve global cardiac function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and congestive heart failure, by favorable effects on cardiac metabolism leading to improvement of cardiac efficiency.
