Active clinical trials for "Glucose Intolerance"

The purpose of open-label study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AO-128 (Voglibose) 0.6 mg/day in patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) who had been non-responsive to diet therapy and exercise therapy, and follow up the progress after the end of treatment in patients who was assessed as normoglycemic.

This is a single-centre, 16-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-treatment arm pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BTI320 in the treatment of high risk subjects with pre-diabetes. This is a pilot study aiming to test whether taking a medicine named BTI320 that slows down carbohydrate absorption in the gut, will lower blood sugar. The study aims to recruit 60 individuals in Hong Kong. To take part in the study, subjects must have pre-diabetes, that is, they have blood sugar levels that are above normal but not reaching diabetes range. The medicine BTI320 is currently licensed as a health supplement in Hong Kong and is known alternatively as SUGARDOWN®. The investigators are comparing the effectiveness of BTI320 against a dummy tablet. Both tablets look and taste identical and during the study, subjects will not know which of these tablets they are taking. There is a 4 in 5 chance of receiving active medication and 1 in 5 chance of receiving placebo. Subjects will be followed up closely every 2 to 4 weeks for a period of time up to 22 weeks. The study visits will take between 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending on additional checks that are required on a particular visit including oral glucose tolerance test and meal tolerance test. At visits involving meal tolerance test, subjects will be required to stay for approximately 3 hours. In addition, at Visit 2, Visit 4 and 3 days before Visit 7, a continuous glucose monitoring system device will be installed. Throughout the study period, subjects will return to the study center for check-ups including careful enquiry about whether they have developed any side-effects from taking the medication, physical examination, as well as blood tests.

Glucose ACCES study will explore the acute and long term (12-week treatment) effects of saxagliptin in patients with impaired glucose tolerance during fasting and after a standardised breakfast. The investigations will be performed on: glycemic parameters on cardiovascular parameters

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PreCrea® on subjects with higher than normal blood sugar levels.

This study hypothesizes that milk protein consumed together or shortly before a white rice or white bread carbohydrate meal exerts different influence on the glycaemic, insulinaemic responses.

The aim of this study is to prospectively assess the relative benefits of either treatment with rosiglitazone or physical exercise on endothelial function in patients with impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance and coronary artery disease (CAD).

This was a 10-week, placebo-controlled, randomized study to investigate the effect of injectable IL-1B antagonist, Canakinumab , in participants with impaired glucose tolerance or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) already treated on different background diabetes therapies.

Inhibition of RAS delays onset of diabetes in clinical studies. Preliminary evidence suggests that telmisartan may have unique metabolic properties compared to other ARB due to activation of PPARγ. This should be tested in comparison with an ARB that is metabolically neutral in already published studies. H0: Telmisartan is not different from Losartan with respect to metabolic and vascular effects. H1: Telmisartan is different from Losartan with respect to metabolic and vascular effects.

A study of 12 weeks' treatment with losartan or placebo, to test the hypothesis that RAS inhibition will improve insulin' vascular actions and therefore improve insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle.

This is an exploratory study to assess whether vildagliptin, an unapproved drug, can increase insulin secretion in subjects with pre-diabetes who have a defect in the insulin response and elevated levels of fasting glucose.
