Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The study aims to evaluate the accuracy of two commercial glucose monitoring systems in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and renal impairment, including patients with or without dialysis. Patients treatment experience will even be evaluated.

The purpose of this trial is to pragmatically investigate whether participation of people with diabetes and prediabetes in an Exercise and Lifestyle Education Program (i.e., exercise and education classes) results in better functional capacity, disease-related knowledge and behavior, and cardiometabolic health parameters when compared to Exercise Program (i.e., exercise class only). In addition, the effects of these interventions will be evaluated on other outcomes: program adherence, satisfaction with the program, quality of life, diet quality, depression, and morbidity associated with diabetes in the 6 months follow-up.

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the drugs dapagliflozin and saxagliptin in patients with Type 2 Diabetes who are aged 10 to below 18 years old and are currently taking metformin, insulin, or both drugs. Dapagliflozin and saxagliptin are both approved for use in patients with Type 2 Diabetes aged 18 years or older. Dapagliflozin (alone or in combination with other antidiabetic drugs) is available for use in adults in approximately 115 countries worldwide including the USA and Europe. Saxagliptin (alone or in combination with other antidiabetic drugs) is available for use in adults in approximately 100 countries worldwide. This study will assess how well dapagliflozin and saxagliptin work by finding out how these treatments affect blood glucose (sugar) levels compared to placebo (a pill that contains no active drug), in children and adolescents. Dapagliflozin and saxagliptin are considered investigational products in this study since while they have been approved for use in adults (patients 18 years or older), they haven't been approved for children and adolescents due to lack of clinical studies in this specific population. Patients with Type 2 Diabetes have higher levels of blood glucose (sugar) than patients who do not have this disease.The high level of sugar in the blood can lead to serious short-term and long-term medical problems. The main goal of treating diabetic patients is to lower blood glucose to a normal level. Lowering and controlling blood glucose help prevent or delay complications of diabetes, such as heart disease, kidney, eye and nerve diseases, and the possibility of amputation. Dapagliflozin is a drug that helps to reduce blood glucose levels by helping the kidneys to remove excess glucose from the blood and excrete it in the urine. It prevents the kidneys from returning glucose from the urine back into the bloodstream. Saxagliptin increases insulin production when blood glucose levels are high. Saxagliptin helps to improve blood sugar levels in response to a meal and between meals if blood glucose levels are not lowered effectively. Saxagliptin does not work when the blood glucose is low. Saxagliptin also helps to decrease the amount of sugar made by the body. Together, these processes reduce blood glucose levels and help to control Type 2 Diabetes. The subject will either receive one of the active study drugs or a placebo (a pill that looks identical but contains inactive drug). This study will be double blind; this means that neither the subject, nor the study doctor will know which treatment the subject will receive. Which treatment the subject receives is decided by a computer, purely by chance; this is called a "random assignment". For this study, there will first be a screening phase of up to 6 months if Investigator thinks that some of the screening tests can be repeated, followed by a 2 week lead in phase.Thereafter there will be a 26W short-term treatment phase (W1-26), and a 26 W long-term treatment phase (W27-52). Following this there will be a follow-up telephone call on week 56 and a post study visit at W104. At day1 visit after the lead in phase the subject will be randomly assigned to receive one of 3 treatments: dapagliflozin 5mg, saxagliptin 2.5mg or placebo in a blinded manner.This treatment will continue up to week 14. After week 14, the subject will be assigned to receive one of the following 5 treatments: dapagliflozin 5mg,dapagliflozin 10mg,saxagliptin 2.5 mg, saxagliptin 5 mg compared with placebo in a blinded manner. The drugs assigned after week 14 will be the same drugs as at Day 1, but some of the groups will receive them at a higher dose.Starting at W32 or W40, i.e., after the end of the primary endpoints, patients with background medication of metformin only, and an HbA1c value < 7.5% at W26 or W32, will undergo a third randomization. Eligible subjects from the treatment arms will undergo the randomized withdrawal of background medication, while eligible patients from the placebo arm will undergo, in addition to rand withdrawal of background medication a randomized switch to active treatment. Short/ long-term period study visits can be delayed by a maximum of 11 months in total. If the duration of IP administration is longer than 52(+1)weeks, the safety follow-up period should be shortened such that the complete study duration does not exceed 104 weeks(+7 days). A window period of -28 days to +7 days from the original scheduled date will be allowed for the Week-104 visit.If more than 12 weeks elapse between the HbA1c collection at W26 and the third rand at W32, or the HbA1c collection at W32 and the third rand at W40, the subject should not go through this rand as the HbA1c value would no longer be reliable to ascertain eligibility for the third rand

In a triple-crossover study, the effect aronia consumption on type 2 diabetes will be examined. 48 type 2 diabetes patients need to complete the trial. Each patient will receive two daily doses of both fermented aronia, aronia, or placebo for eight weeks each. There will be 3 weeks wash-out periods between the intervention periods. Before and after the intervention periods, various measurements will be performed to assess the effects of aronia, fermented aronia, and placebo on type 2 diabetes.

Tele-rehabilitation (TR) which carries health services distant through using electronic communication systems is an important treatment option. Although TR studies in musculoskeletal system, neurologic and cardio-pulmonary diseases are effective TR studies in type 2 DM patients are limited. TR interventions in patients with type 2 diabetes has not yet sufficiently defined and more studies with different exercise protocols will be an important step for the clinical value of this intervention but also for it's application in clinical practice. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telerehabilitation program on glucose control, functional capacity, muscle strength and quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes. Study design: It is a supervised-double blind randomized controlled trial, comparing two groups (a control group and a telerehabilitation group). The duration of the intervention will last 6 weeks. Setting: home-based patients environments , only the first session in University of Thessaly for educational reason Participants: A total of 22 patients with type 2 diabetes, regardless sex, aged 40 years and older will randomly assign to a telerehabilitation group (n = 11) and a control group (n = 11). Measurements /Assessments Study data will be collected at baseline and after the intervention period ( 6 weeks) by two blinded physiotherapists, in University of Thessaly).

The purpose of the trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide to dulaglutide in participants with type 2 diabetes and increased cardiovascular risk.

This study involves pilot testing a newly developed diabetes nutrition education program for American Indian and Alaska Native adults with T2D. The first phase of this study (COMIRB Protocol 18-006) included a qualitative needs assessment to inform the development of this program. The Study Aims include: piloting the newly adapted program at 6 AI/AN collaborating sites to gain feedback on satisfaction, likability, usability and clinical outcomes such as HgA1C (measure of blood sugar control), blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI).

The primary objective of the study is to determine if treatment with high-dose aflibercept (HD) at intervals of 12 or 16 weeks provides non-inferior best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) compared to aflibercept dosed every 8 weeks. The secondary objectives of the study are as follows: To determine the effect of HD vs. aflibercept on anatomic and other visual measures of response To evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of aflibercept

The main objective of this study is to determine whether home use of fully closed-loop glucose control applying ultra-rapid Lispro insulin is superior to standard insulin pump therapy with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in adults with type 1 diabetes on insulin pump therapy with sub-optimal glycaemic control (HbA1c ≥ 8.0%). This is an open-label, single centre, randomised, crossover design study, involving a run-in period followed by two study periods during which glucose levels will be controlled either by an automated closed-loop system using ultra-rapid Lispro insulin or by participants usual insulin pump therapy with continuous glucose monitoring in random order. A total of up to 30 adults (aiming for 24 completed participants) with T1D on insulin pump therapy will be recruited through diabetes clinics and other established methods. Participants who drop out of the study within the first 4 weeks of the first intervention arm will be replaced. Participants will receive appropriate training in the safe use of the closed-loop devices. Participants will have access to the study team during the home study phase with 24/7 telephone support. The primary outcome is time spent in target range between 3.9 and 10.0 mmol/L as recorded by CGM over the 8 week period. Secondary outcomes are HbA1c, time spent with glucose levels above and below target as recorded by CGM, and other CGM-based metrics in addition to insulin requirements. Safety evaluation comprises severe hypoglycaemic episodes, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) events and other adverse and serious adverse events.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, and durability of up to two REACT injections delivered percutaneously into biopsied and non-biopsied contralateral kidneys on renal function progression in two different cohorts of subjects with T1DM or T2DM and CKD.
