Active clinical trials for "Diabetic Neuropathies"

Aims: To evaluate the effect of ezetimibe/simvastatin and rosuvastatin on oxidative stress and mitochondrial function in patients with DPN. Methods: We performed a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial in adult patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) who had Diabetic Polyneuropathy (DPN) evaluated by composite scores and nerve conduction studies (NCS), HBA1C <12% (108 mmol/mol), previous exclusion of other neuropathies. Ninety-eight persons with T2DM were allocated 1:1:1 to either placebo, ezetimibe/simvastatin 10/20 mg or rosuvastatin 20 mg for 16 weeks, and healthy controls (not randomized) were included for comparisons. Primary outcomes were lipid peroxidation (LPO), nitric oxide (NO), and total antioxidant capacity (TAC); secondary were clinical, NCS and metabolic parameters. Results were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD) or standard error of the mean (SEM), frequencies and percentages. Non-parametric analysis was used.

The purpose of this trial is to explore whether liraglutide has a long term effect on clinical symptoms and biomarkers in patients with diabetic neuropathy.

This is a prospective, randomized, double blind, comparative, experimental controlled Phase 3 clinical trial to assess the efficacy, safety and superiority of F0343 (gabapentin combined with B vitamins) compared to gabapentin alone for treating neuropathic pain in subjects with chronic distal diabetic polyneuropathy.

Patients will be switched from their current medication for painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pregabalin as compared to placebo. All patients will receive pregabalin, and half of patients will receive placebo at some point during the study.

The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of 6 months of 4 g/day oral Lovaza® on endothelial-dependent and heat-induced vasodilation in type 2 diabetics with neuropathy and elevated triglyceride levels. Omega-3 fatty acids appear to exert beneficial effects on vascular function that are independent of the changes in serum triglycerides. The efficacy will be compared with a placebo given at the same duration. Efficacy of the drug will be evaluated after 3 and 6 months of treatment. This timeline should be adequate for evaluation of the primary neurophysiological endpoints. Previously, the investigators have demonstrated that it is feasible to pharmacologically alter nerve fiber density in as little as 18 weeks and that this correlates with subjective and objective measures of neurovascular function. The investigators are predicting an enhancement of post-ischemic hyperemia of the foot dorsum, where the dilative mechanism is primarily endothelium-dependent and a similar improvement in heat-induced hyperemia.

The primary objective of the trial is to assess the tolerability and safety of long-term SPM 927 administration in subjects with diabetic neuropathy.

To evaluate the effects of multiple oral doses of desvenlafaxine sustained release (DVS SR) and paroxetine on the biotransformation of codeine to morphine in healthy subjects. To assess the safety and tolerability of DVS SR and paroxetine when coadministered with codeine to healthy subjects.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of TRO19622 administered PO daily for 6 weeks compared to placebo administered PO daily in patients with painful peripheral diabetic neuropathy.

The purpose of this protocol is to investigate the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of CAST as a treatment for diabetic neuropathy. The primary outcome measure will be Total Neuropathic Symptom Score. Secondary outcomes will be neurological disability score, nerve conduction measurements and quantitative sensory testing. Statistical analyses will compare changes from baseline for CAST- and placebo-treated groups at both time points, compare effects of CAST at 6 and 12 months and, if numbers permit, compare doses.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether QR-333 is safe and effective in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy as compared to placebo.
