Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

One known cause of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is beta-cell dysfunction, which refers to the inability of the beta-cells of the pancreas to produce enough insulin for the body's needs. Unfortunately, no anti-diabetic medication or lifestyle intervention has been shown to prevent the worsening of beta-cell function over time. Interestingly, however, intermittent fasting (IF) - where no food is consumed over a period of time - has been shown to promote weight loss and improve cardio-metabolic function. In individuals with T2DM, it is also been shown to improve glycemic control (i.e. reduce the sugar levels). While no research has studied whether IF can improve pancreatic beta-cell function, the positive metabolic effects suggest that it could provide some benefit. The current study will evaluate whether IF can improve pancreatic beta-cell function in individuals with early T2DM.

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to implement the DM Discharge Toolkit into hospital discharge and assess the effect of the DM Discharge Toolkit on patients newly requiring insulin.

This is a 26-week randomized, free-living, open-label, two-arm, two-phase, crossover trial. Participants will receive two interventions at different phases, including the Android artificial pancreas system(AndroidAPS-rt-CGM) and sensor-augment pump(SAP), and use marketed rapid-acting insulin analogs (insulin Aspart, insulin Lispro, or insulin Glulisine) normally used in their usual clinical care. The safety and efficacy of AndroidAPS-rt-CGM and SAP in adult T1DM with suboptimal glycemic control will be compared to explore whether the use of AndroidAPS-rt-CGM in adult T1DM with suboptimal glycemic control will be associated with better glycemic control with no increased hypoglycemia.

This is a Phase 4 study with 2 parts: Part 1 (Prevalence Phase) is non-interventional and will assess the prevalence of hypercortisolism in a population with difficult to control type 2 diabetes (T2D) (hemoglobin A1c ≥7.5%) despite receiving standard-of-care therapies. Part 2 (Treatment Phase) is a randomized, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind multi-center trial that will assess the safety and efficacy of mifepristone treatment in patients with hypercortisolism who have difficult to control T2D despite receiving standard of care therapies.

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of a weight management programme in primary care in achieving diabetes remission in obese patients with early diabetes. Potential participants are to attend a screening visit to determine eligibility. Eligible participants will be invited to participate in the trial within 3 months of screening visit. 120 participants will be recruited into the study and randomised into 2 arms: control group (60 participants) or intervention group (60 participants). Control group: Participants randomised to the control group will receive usual care with their healthcare team. Intervention group: Participants randomised to the intervention group will be put on a weight management programme with the aim of achieving weight loss of at least 15% body weight or 15kg. Researchers will compare between control and intervention groups to see if a weight management programme is effective in achieving diabetes remission in obese patients with early diabetes, compared to usual care.

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate if colchicine in addition to standard of care improves markers of inflammation and cardiovascular disease in persons with type 1 diabetes. Participants will be assigned to either 0,5 mg colchicine daily or placebo in a 1:1 ratio for 26 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydrogen inhalation in type 2 diabetes patients.

Patients with type 2 diabetes who have poor blood glucose control are enrolled to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the HbA1c prediction model for adjust the hypoglycemic treatment regimen, compared with the conventional treatment using self-monitoring blood glucose or glycated albumin.

This is a 26-week randomized, open-label, multicenter, active-controlled parallel group trial. The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy and safety of THDB0206 injection with insulin lispro injection combined with insulin glargine injection U-100 in Chinese participants with T2DM.

We plan to develop a communal coping intervention aimed at instilling a shared appraisal of diabetes and increasing patient-partner collaboration. To that end, we will pilot the first randomized clinical trial of a brief communal coping intervention among couples in which one person has T1D
