Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of long-term treatment with alogliptin (Nesina) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who responded inadequately to diet therapy and exercise therapy alone, or a combination of diet therapy, exercise therapy, and α-glucosidase inhibitor. In addition, examining the safety and efficacy of alogliptin in patients with renal impairment, information on the appropriate dosage of alogliptin according to the severity of impaired renal function should be collected.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of long-term combination therapy with alogliptin (Nesina) and thiazolidinediones in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who failed to respond adequately to treatment with thiazolidinediones in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy.

The purpose of this study is to describe the incretin effect and postprandial incretin response in patients with MODY2 and MODY3 and a group of matched healthy subjects. In sulphonyl urea treated subjects the purpose is also to compare the incretin effect with and without treatment. In healthy subjects the purpose is also to investigate the incretin effect under increased levels of endogen incretin hormones.

To establish the bioequivalence between Glucobay ODT (Orally Disintegrating Tablet) taken without or with water and the Glucobay standard tablet taken with water

Clinical measures of adipose tissue mass (BMI, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio) do not adequately explain the inter-individual and ethnic heterogeneity in diabetes. . There is a need to identify novel/universal markers of risk for diabetes (DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). These biomarkers also can become additional outcome measures for an intervention such as pancreatic/kidney transplant. If biological markers show an improvement with an intervention before anthropometric changes occur, intermediate outcomes can be an encouraging finding for practitioners. This study will focus on the central question of "adipose tissue dysfunction" as mediator of metabolic complications of positive energy balance, independent of body fat content and distribution. This study will address the question of effect of hyperglycemia on adipose tissue function independent of body fat mass. This project will take advantage of unique expertise of our investigators to perform detailed metabolic studies in patients with diabetes who undergo pancreatic/kidney transplant. The results of the proposed study will provide support to the novel approach of identifying adipose tissue dysfunction, rather than obesity and fat distribution, as predictor of diabetes and CVD across all ethnic groups, age and gender. We will obtain necessary preliminary data for future grant submissions to support our central hypothesis and develop stronger interactions within and outside The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) with clinical investigators in the area of DM and its complications.

The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the effects on glycemic control and to evaluate the safety of long-term use of pioglitazone tablets (Actos Tablets) in type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycemic control and a prior history of cerebral infarction.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of mixed herbs as ad-on therapy on blood sugar and lipid profile of patients with established T2DM. A total 20 patients were consented and were equally divided into the Control and the Test groups and was fed with the Placebo or mixed herbs 4 g daily for 30 days, respectively. Blood samples were collected before and at the end of the feeding period and analyzed for the parameters namely Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), 2 hours post prandial (2HPP) Glycosylated Hb (HbA1c) and Lipid Profile. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS Statistical Software version 12.

This study is conducted in Asia. The aim of this study is to evaluate long term safety and efficacy in patients with diabetes mellitus in routine clinical practice in India.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate bioequivalence of coadministered drugs on healthy subjects.

This is a multi-center, prospective, non-pivotal, single arm, non-significant risk evaluation the Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System - Pro across different stages of T2 diabetes management. This is a non-significant risk study.
