Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability of sitagliptin 100 mg/simvastatin 40 mg FDC (MK-0431D) in Vietnamese participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus with inadequate glycemic control on metformin.

The study is being performed to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of multiple oral doses of DBPR108 in healthy male subjects.

This Phase IIIb, randomized, open-label, parallel group, active control, multicenter, treat to-target study of 26 weeks' treatment duration will evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-weekly albiglutide as replacement of prandial insulin in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) failing to achieve adequate glycemic control on their current basal bolus insulin regimen (with or without metformin). Approximately 794 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of 2 treatment groups: albiglutide + insulin glargine (with insulin lispro discontinuation at Week 4) (with or without metformin) or to intensification of insulin glargine + insulin lispro (with or without metformin). The study will comprise 4 study periods : Screening (2 weeks), Standardization (4 weeks), Treatment (26 weeks), and Post treatment Follow up (4 weeks). The total duration of a subject's participation will be approximately 36 weeks.

Study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of BI 1356 BS during 4 week treatment duration

There will be a randomized clinical trial, non-blind, 3-arm treatment (medical, surgical, gastric bypass and ileal transposition surgery with and sleeve), which will be conducted in a single center - S.B.S. Hospital Sirio Libanês, including 75 research subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity class I. In order to compare the effect of weight loss on glycemic control among medical and surgical groups, and after 2 years of follow up, the results of efficacy, safety and maintenance will be compared between the three groups.

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, South America, and the United States of America (USA). The aim of the trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of FIAsp in a basal-bolus regimen versus basal insulin therapy, both in combination with metformin in adult subjects with type 2 diabetes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) -IV inhibitor Vildagliptin vs. Glibenclamide on circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) number in type 2 diabetes patients in metformin failure. Subjects will be followed for 12 months after randomization.

This is a prospective, open, randomized study involving 100 patients with microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity, who will undergo gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass ARM A) or receive best medical treatment (ARM B, control arm). The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in the control of diabetic nephropathy in diabetic patients with BMI between 30 and 35 kg/m2. The medical community is confronted with many different studies using various methodologies to investigate the best pharmacological treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus. The treatment algorithm offers several different options according to the stage of the disease (which is different in each study). In addition, new drugs are being developed over the years, but are not always a guarantee of effective type 2 diabetes mellitus control [MENDES, 2010]. Furthermore, these drugs do not prevent the development of this disease, consequently increasing the risks of microvascular and macrovascular complications. Conversely, there is considerable evidence that surgery can be an adequate tool to promote type 2 diabetes mellitus remission in patients who are unresponsive to clinical treatment. Gastric bypass surgery is one of the most popular bariatric surgeries in the world, but its effects on microvascular and macrovascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus have not been established. Specialists suggest that the rapid and uncontrollable decrease in blood glucose adds to the concern that the surgery may paradoxically cause exacerbation of microvascular complications [LEOW, 2005], whereas gradual improvement in blood glucose before gastric bypass surgery may prevent this paradoxical worsening, leading to an interruption of this process, or even retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy remission. However, there are no studies comparing the results of these two types of treatment (clinical vs. surgical) in a similar population and assessing the development of microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Therefore, in order to clarify such doubts, it is necessary and extremely desirable to conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing gastric bypass with the best and most modern clinical treatment. Its findings could have a direct impact on hundreds of millions of diabetics by allowing the inclusion of surgical treatment as a safe and feasible therapeutic option for a significant portion of these patients.

This clinical study is to determine if the use of structured testing, which is a blood glucose monitoring, via the Accu-Chek 360° View blood glucose analysis tool has a positive effect on the subjects overall glycemic control.

This trial is conducted in Europe and North and South America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of semaglutide once-weekly versus exenatide ER (extended release) 2.0 mg once-weekly as add-on to 1-2 oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
