Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of quercetin on glucose tolerance and postprandial endothelial function in comparison to placebo and Acarbose in participants with Type 2 Diabetes. Primary Hypothesis: We hypothesize that administration of quercetin (2g oral) prior to a 100g maltose tolerance test (MTT) will result in a decrease in postprandial blood glucose at 60 minutes compared to placebo. Acarbose (100mg oral), a pharmaceutical alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, will serve as a positive control. Secondary Hypothesis: We hypothesize that administration of quercetin (2g oral) will reduce the Area Under the Glucose Curve (AUC) for the 2 hours following a 100g MTT compared to placebo. AUC is hypothesized to be comparable between quercetin and Acarbose. Tertiary hypothesis: We hypothesize that administration of quercetin (2g oral) prior to a 100g MTT will result in a smaller reduction in flow mediated dilation (FMD) measured as an increase in Reactive Hyperemia Index (RHI) at 90 minutes compared to placebo.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of JTT-851 on diabetes as well as to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of JTT-851 in type 2 diabetic patients either treated with metformin or treatment-naïve.

The general aim of the present study is to investigate the impact of 4 weeks treatment with linagliptin (5 mg) on endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In the current trial this effect of linagliptin treatment on endothelial function will be compared against both the sulfonylurea glimepiride and against placebo, which has not been tested in a trial before; as also is the case for other DPP-4 inhibitors. Besides placebo, glimepiride was chosen as a comparator, as it is one compound of the second most used oral antidiabetic drug class.

To assess the effect of adding acarbose or repaglinide or gliclazide to sitagliptin plus metformin, compared to adding glimepiride, on glycemic improvements in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) participants who require the addition of a third oral anti-hyperglycemic agent (OAHA) according to China Guideline for Type 2 Diabetes. The three co-primary hypotheses are that after 24 weeks of treatment in phase 2, the mean change from baseline in hemoglobin A1c (A1c) in participants receiving either (1)acarbose or (2)repaglinide or (3)gliclazide added to sitagliptin and metformin combination is non-inferior to that of participants receiving glimepiride added to sitagliptin and metformin combination. The study would be declared successful if at least one of the three primary hypotheses was met.

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose or doses of HM11260C, when administered once a week under the skin, to improve the control of blood sugar levels in patients with early-stage type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Primary objective: - To evaluate the effect of lixisenatide versus placebo over a period of 24 weeks on glycemic control, as evaluated by glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction, in older type 2 diabetes participants (T2DM) who are inadequately controlled with their current anti-diabetic treatment regimen. Main secondary objective: - To assess the safety and tolerability of lixisenatide compared to placebo in older T2DM participants (including occurrence of documented (Plasma Glucose PG < 60 mg/dL) symptomatic hypoglycemia and gastrointestinal side effects). Other secondary objectives: To assess the effect of lixisenatide compared to placebo after 24-week treatment on: Fasting plasma glucose (FPG); During liquid standardized breakfast meal challenge test : 2 hour- Postprandial Plasma Glucose (PPG) and Plasma Glucose Excursion; 7-point Self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profile; Body weight; Change in total daily dose of basal insulin (if taken); Percentage of participants requiring rescue therapy Safety and tolerability; To assess lixisenatide pharmacokinetic profile; To assess anti-lixisenatide antibody development.

The ASI Non-Invasive Arterial Stiffness Screening Device (ASI Device) is an investigational device under development for the non-invasive assessment of arterial stiffness. The ASI Device is considerably smaller and more cost effective than its commercially available counterparts. As the device is readily portable, it is intended to be targeted for use in the community (or at home), as opposed to within the hospital or clinic setting only. However, as the device is still under development, it is not known whether it is capable of determining arterial stiffness with the same sensitivity and consistency as those already in commercial use. An added variable is the fact the sensor for the ASI Device is located on the fingertip. Validation is a prerequisite for obtaining Health Canada approval of devices for diagnostic purposes. The ASI Device has not been tested against other instruments capable of providing similar measurements. Therefore, a clinical trial to compare the ASI Device against similar devices is necessary. The study will compare measurements of arterial stiffness and other central haemodynamic parameters obtained with the ASI Device against similar measurements from devices that have already been approved for this purpose by Health Canada/United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This trial is being conducted to look for following changes when Korean traditional diets is taken in subjects with hypertension and type 2 diabetes: To evaluate the improvement of the controlling fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin. To assess the controlling blood pressure and heart rate. To evaluate the influence on cardiovascular risk factor, Triglyceride, cholesterol, High Density Lipoprotein-cholesterol and Low-Density Lipoprotein-cholesterol. To evaluate the influence on Gamma-Glutamyl Transpeptidase. To evaluate the influence on Cardiovascular risk factor. To evaluate the influence on valsava score, breathing score and upright score.

Study Design: Part 1.Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, escalating single-dose design with Healthy volunteers Part 2.Open , sequential, two-period, single dose study with type 1 diabetes Part 3.Open, sequential, two-period, single dose study with type 2 diabetes

This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of two doses (high and low) of empagliflozin in combination with metformin (500 mg and 1000 mg) administered twice daily in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Study will compare four dose combinations of empagliflozin + metformin versus each individual component after 24 weeks of treatment.
