Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

A worldwide study with extension in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to assess the safety and tolerability as well as the effects of treatment with an investigational drug for weight loss on body weight.

This is a 107-week open-label, multi-center long-term extension study from GALLANT studies 2/22, 5, 7, 8 and 14 to monitor the safety and tolerability of oral tesaglitazar 1 mg in patients with type 2 diabetes during up to 104 weeks of treatment. The total duration, including treatment and follow-up, is 107 weeks.

To determine if restoring normal metabolic function in patients with either Type I or Type II Diabetes can improve overall cognitive function. Patients are treated once a week with pulsatile intravenous insulin therapy mimicking normal insulin secretion and high amounts of oral glucose consumption.

The long-term goal of the TEDDY study is the identification of infectious agents, dietary factors, or other environmental agents, including psychosocial factors which trigger T1DM in genetically susceptible individuals or which protect against the disease. Identification of such factors will lead to a better understanding of disease pathogenesis and result in new strategies to prevent, delay or reverse T1DM.

The purpose of this study is to determine if restoring normal metabolic function in patients with either type I or type II diabetes can improve the impact of the consequences of diabetic complications on the overall quality of life of diabetic patients. Patients are treated once a week with pulsatile intravenous insulin therapy mimicking normal insulin secretion. A diabetic quality of life questionnaire is completed prior to the start of the treatment and quarterly thereafter with detailed analysis performed to measure progress and outcomes

This trial is conducted in Europe, Asia and South America. A one-year clinical trial to compare the safety of inhaled human insulin to subcutaneous insulin aspart in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT,1983-1993) compared intensive therapy aimed at near-normal glycemia versus conventional therapy with no specific glucose targets in 1441 subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) over a mean follow-up of 6.5 years. Intensive therapy reduced the risks of retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy by 35-76%. The level of glycemia was the primary determinant of complications. We also described the adverse effects of intensive therapy; assessed its effects on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, neurocognition and quality of life; and projected the lifetime health-economic impact. After the primary DCCT results were reported in 1993, intensive therapy aiming for a HbA1c <7% was adopted world-wide as standard-of-care for T1DM. The Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC, 1994-present) is the observational follow-up study of the DCCT cohort. Micro- and cardio-vascular complications and a wide range of established and putative risk factors, including genetic and epigenetic factors, have been measured with standardized methods, carefully documented and events adjudicated. EDIC has notably shown that the early beneficial effects of intensive versus conventional therapy on complications persisted for ~15 years despite the convergence of HbA1c levels in the two groups during EDIC, a novel concept termed metabolic memory. Prior intensive therapy was also shown to reduce substantially the risk of CVD events and mortality. The overarching goals for the current cycle (2022-2027) are to study the occurrence and identify potentially modifiable risk factors of the more advanced microvascular and cardiovascular complications and physical and cognitive dysfunction that are occurring with increasing diabetes duration and age. With increasing longevity, the increased adiposity that has affected patients with T1DM, including EDIC participants, has potential adverse consequences. Thus, the impact of diabetes duration, aging and adiposity on morbidities and their underlying risk factors will be studied. The results will guide treatment priorities as T1DM patients age.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pioglitazone-azilsartan, once daily (QD), in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control.

The clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety of inhaled Technosphere/Insulin compared with non-inhaled anti-diabetic therapies in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus and concurrent asthma.

This study was designed to find dose response and as extension in treatment of GW823093C.
