Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

An open-label, phase II study to assess the acute and chronic effects of empagliflozin (BI 10773)on fasting and postprandial glucose homeostasis in patients with IGT and type 2 diabetes mellitus and assess the acute effects of empagliflozin in healthy subjects.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether TH9507, a stabilized analogue of growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF), would have an effect on insulin sensitivity or control of diabetes in patients with type 2 diabetes.

This is a 2-part study in participants with renal impairment and matched healthy participants to investigate the effect of impaired renal function on the plasma and urine levels of omarigliptin (MK-3102) after taking a single 3 mg dose by mouth.

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Metformin Glycinate versus Metformin Hydrochloride in metabolic control and inflammatory mediators in Mexican type 2 diabetes patients, in a 12 months follow up.

This study intends to compare the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin versus placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycaemic control on a background combination of metformin and sulfonylurea.

The purposes of the study are to determine if a supervised exercise intervention is improving the metabolic parameters in type 2 diabetes patients to investigate what kind of intervention (strength endurance training versus combined strength endurance training and rehabilitation exercise intervention)is more effective in improving the metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes to assess which exercise intervention induces higher effects to the metabolic rate and cardiac and pulmonary capacity to investigate what kind of intervention includes highest effects in long term persistence of these positive effects

The purpose of this study is to examine the insulin-sparing effect of sitagliptin 100 mg once-daily compared with placebo over 24 weeks in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have inadequate glycemic control on insulin alone or in combination with metformin. The primary hypothesis of this study is that after 24 weeks, sitagliptin reduces the dose of insulin relative to placebo.

The purpose of this study is to help low income patients achieve and maintain better self-management skills and improve blood sugar levels, using a 2-in-1 blood glucose and blood pressure monitoring system and nurse case management. Patients must be served at a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in coastal South Carolina.

The study is a multicenter, prospective, open-label, randomized pilot study to investigate the safety and efficacy of sitagliptin (Januvia) for the inpatient management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in general medicine and surgery patients.

Dairy food contains a large amount of long-chain saturated fat, which traditionally has been linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, recent data indicates a more neutral role. Milk fat contains large amounts of medium-chain saturated fatty acids (MC-SFA), which may have beneficial effects on human health. In addition, milk proteins and in particular whey proteins have been shown to have a beneficial effect on glucose disposal as well as anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore dairy products have a potential role in the treatment of the metabolic abnormalities of metabolic syndrome (MeS). However, human data from intervention studies are lacking. Aims of this project is to explore and understand the influence on human health of both medium-chain saturated fatty acids from milk fat and bioactive milk proteins per se as well as their interaction and potential positive synergy on the MeS. The investigators hypothesize that whey protein and medium-chain saturated fatty acids improve insulin sensitivity, postprandial lipid metabolism, blood pressure and inflammatory stress in humans and that they possess preventive effects on the risk of developing CVD and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 64 people with MeS or abdominal obesity will be included. The design is a randomized double-blinded, controlled parallel diet-intervention trial. Subjects are assigned one of four experimental diets for 12 weeks. The diets consist of either a diet with low levels of MC-SFA + whey protein (LF + whey), a diet high in MC-SFA + whey protein (HF + whey), a diet high in MC-SFA + casein protein (HF + casein) or a diets with low levels of MC-SFA + casein protein (LF + casein). The subjects are advised how to integrate the test foods in their habitual diet, which also continues unchanged. The subjects' energy intake is matched so they are kept weight stable throughout the study.
