Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

Diabetes is a disease with a high impact in the population older than 65 years old. Some indications suggest that diabetes in the old age aggravate the negative effects of ageing, as the loss of muscle mass and strength, bringing the patients to a situation of vulnerability and elevated risk of disability and death known as "frailty syndrome". Recently, scientists have observed that if older population train with musculation machines emphasising the muscular power, it is possible to have an impact on a disminution of frailty and restoring the physical functionality. This project deeps in the physiological and molecular mechanisms that underlie to improvements in the frail diabetic patients.

This study is undertaken to explore in T2D, the effect of meal timing on serum induced SIRT1 and Clock Genes mRNA expression in cultured hepatocytes. Fasting serum samples were collected from T2D participants, following two different meal timing schedules, either a diet with large breakfast and lunch with small dinner Breakfast Diet (3Mdiet) or an isocaloric diet with 6 small meals evenly distributed along the day Allday Diet (6Mdiet). The researchers will use an ex-vivo/in-vitro approach in which cultured medium will be conditioned with the fasted human serum collected from the two groups of T2D participants at baseline, after 2 weeks and after 12 week of the diet intervention.

Over 27 million Americans are diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), and their health outcomes, including hospitalization, emergency department use, and hospital readmission, are largely driven by social determinants; diabetes complications are largely attributable to unmet health-related social needs. Investigators will conduct a pilot feasibility trial of the Re-Engineered Discharge for Diabetes-Computer Adaptive Testing (REDD-CAT) system to inform the design of a future, fully-powered randomized controlled trial. REDD-CAT will allow clinical staff to preemptively link patients with community-based social services tailored to meet their unique needs in order to reduce avoidable hospitalization and emergency department visits.

This is a randomized clinical trial with the aim to evaluate the effects of two water-based aerobic training programs (walking or running in shallow pool) on type 2 diabetes control. The sample will be composed by 50 individuals with type 2 diabetes, of both sexes, aged between 40 and 70 years, who will be randomized into water-based progressive aerobic training (PAT, n=25) and water-based non-progressive aerobic training (NPAT, n=25). Both trainings will have 12 weeks of duration with 3 weekly sessions (of 50 minutes each). Biochemical, cardiorespiratory fitness, maximum strength, body composition and functional mobility variables, as also quality of life, sleep quality and depressive symptoms will be analyzed before and after the 12 weeks of training.

A randomized, open-label, single dose, two-way crossover study to compare the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of CKD-370 with D745 in healthy volunteers

Rationale: Hyperglycaemia is an important cause of long-term macro-and microvascular complications in all patients with diabetes mellitus. However, only a small fraction of the patients with diabetes reaches the set target of glycemic control. Problems with adequate self-management usually underlie problems to maintain glycaemic control. Thus, patients need more support in order to reduce the burden and increase the effectiveness of their diabetes self-management. One way to do this is by using integrated technologies and personalized plans for diabetes care. For this purpose, the POWER2DM support system was developed to give patients insight into their condition and support diabetes patients and their health care professionals in setting and achieving self-management goals using predictive computer model simulations and behavioural action plans. Objective: To provide proof of concept that POWER2DM is safe and effective in improving glycaemic control, improving behavioural/psychosocial and lifestyle markers, and to assess the cost-effectiveness of the approach and to highlight any potential issues that may impede implementation. Study design: This is a pragmatic randomised controlled trial with 9 months follow-up in which patients will be randomised 1:1 to either Power2DM support (Power2DM group) or usual care (usual care group). There will be evaluation moments at baseline, after 11 weeks, 22 weeks and 37 weeks. Study population: 230 patients with diabetes (N=115 type 1 diabetes (T1D), N=115 type 2 diabetes (T2D)) recruited from out-patient clinics in the Netherlands (Leiden University Medical Centre and affiliating teaching hospitals N=115) and Córdoba, Spain (Reina Sofia University Hospital N=115). Intervention: The POWER2DM support group will receive access to the prototype 2 of the POWER2DM system. This system consists of two components: 1) the web-based Shared Decision Making Dashboard, used to set self-management goals together with a health care professional with the use of both short- and long-term predictive computer simulation models, and 2) the POWER2DM Self-Management Support System as a mobile application and webpage, used to support behavioural change in DM self-management. The system is fed with data from an activity tracker, a glucose monitor and manual data entry. Main study parameters/endpoints: Change in glucose regulation as measured by %HbA1c before and after the intervention compared between the intervention and control group.

The main aim of this study is to identify the underlying mechanisms of Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors which are associated to better outcomes in patients with Diabetes mellitus type 2 and Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction.

A total of 74 Adult Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) will be enrolled and randomized into 2 groups. The intervention group will receive oral magnesium (Mg) supplementation. The study objectives are: To estimate level of Mg (total and ionized) in patient with type 2 DM. To determine the effect of Mg supplementation for diabetic patient on serum Mg level, glycemic control and level of inflammation. To assess the correlation between serum Mg level and glycemic control and level of inflammatory mediators (CRP)

The primary objective of the study is to determine if continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) can improve glycemic control in women with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who are pregnant.

To compare the impact of the FreeStyle Libre (FSL) 2 Flash Glucose Monitoring System to the current Diabetes Monitoring standard of care (SOC) on weight reduction in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
