Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to determine the dose-response relationship for body weight and five escalating doses of NNC 90-1170 (liraglutide) in subjects with type 2 diabetes previously treated with an oral hypoglycemic agent (OHA).

Aim: The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of glimepiride(G) and metformin(M) on vascular reactivity, haemostatic factors and glucose and lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A prospective study will be performed in 20 uncontrolled patients previously treated with dietary intervention. Participants will randomized into M (750 to 2500 mg/day) or G (1 to 8 mg/day) therapy. After 4 months, the patients will be crossed-over with no washout period to the alternative treatment for an additional 4-month period on similar dosage schedule. The following variables were assessed before (basal values) and after 4 months of each treatment period: Hormonal and metabolic determinations: fasting plasma glucose, insulin, catecholamine, lipid profile and HbA1 levels. Haemostatic factors: t-PA antigen and activity, PAI-1 antigen and activity, platelet aggregation, fibrinogen and plasminogen levels. Cardiovascular evaluation: flow indexes of carotid and brachial arteries. Also, at the end of each treatment period, a 12-hour metabolic profile including measurements of glucose, insulin, glucagon, proinsulin and triglycerides levels at fasting and every 2 hours (7:00 am to 7:00 pm)will be done

The purpose of this study is to assess whether Januvia (sitagliptin phosphate 100mg) is safe and effective for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes in patients who have had Gastric Bypass.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 different doses of canagliflozin compared with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are receiving treatment with metformin monotherapy (ie, treatment with a single drug) and have inadequate glycemic (blood sugar) control.

The purpose of this study was evaluate the efficacy and safety of alogliptin, once daily (QD) combined with an Sulfonylurea taken QD or twice daily (BID) in type 2 diabetic patients with uncontrolled blood glucose.

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of the trial is to compare the effect on glycaemic control of biphasic insulin aspart 30 twice daily with two different dosage split regimens for Chinese subjects with type 2 diabetes who did not achieve the treatment target of a glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) below 7% in trial BIASP-3756 (NCT01123980).

The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of alogliptin compared to placebo when given alone or as add-on therapy to metformin or add-on to pioglitazone (with or without metformin).

This is a trial in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus to study the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single escalating doses of PF-05231023.

Saxagliptin + Metformin XR (S+M) will be effective in stabilizing blood glucose (BG) levels in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with severe hyperglycemia (BG levels 300 to 450 mg/dl) and glucose toxicity and with no criteria for inpatient admission or occurrence of severe hypoglycemia compared to glipizide XL. The study may provide preliminary evidence to support the role of S+M as a bridging, stabilizing and safe therapy in patients with severe hyperglycemia

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by progressive deterioration in the function of the pancreatic beta-cells, which are the cells that produce and secrete insulin (the hormone primarily responsible for the handling of glucose in the body). We propose a double-blind, randomized controlled study comparing the effect of liraglutide (a novel anti-diabetic drug with beta-cell protective potential) versus placebo, on the preservation of beta-cell function over one year in patients with T2DM. This study may demonstrate an important beta-cell protective capacity of liraglutide.
