Active clinical trials for "Hypoglycemia"

This study in Germany is designed to compare the effects of twice-daily exenatide plus metformin and twice-daily premixed human insulin aspart plus metformin with respect to glycemic control, as measured by HbA1c, combined with the percentage of patients with at least one treatment-emergent hypoglycemic episode. Patients will be treated with study therapy for approximately 26 weeks.

This study aimed to develop a new approach for the treatment of fasting induced hypoglycemia during ramadan using mini-dose glucagon.

This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 2-treatment, 2-period, crossover comparison in a clinical research center (CRC) setting, followed by a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, 2-arm parallel comparison with a third open-label arm in an outpatient setting. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of Glucagon Ready-to-Use [RTU] to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia (EIH) in adults with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), who perform regular, moderate-to-high intensity aerobic exercise.

To examine effects of two approaches to sahoor meal consumption during Ramadan on blood sugar control and incidence of early day hypoglycemic episodes requring the discontinuation of fasting.

Bariatric surgery is an effective anti-obesity treatment providing durable weight loss and profound beneficial effects on glucose metabolism. However, bariatric surgery also comes with an increased risk for a late metabolic complication known as postbariatric hypoglycaemia (PBH). The condition presents with hypoglycaemic episodes 1-3 hours after meals and develops one to several years after bariatric surgery, mainly gastric bypass. PBH affects approximately 30% of patients without preexisting diabetes. For a subset of patients, hypoglycaemia-associated impairment of daily living and social functioning are commonly observed. The underlying mechanisms of PBH are multifactorial. It is considered that inadequately high insulin secretion caused by both accelerated glucose absorption from the gut and increased insulinotropic hormones such as GLP-1 are important pathophysiologic mechanisms. Empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor reduces glucose exposure by increasing urinary glucose excretion. In a pilot study, a single dose of 10mg of empagliflozin taken before a mixed meal reduced the risk of PBH by 74%. Both, postprandial glucose and insulin exposure were significantly lower with empagliflozin vs. placebo, which makes Empagliflozin a potential treatment for PBH. In this study, treatment naïve patients will be randomized to receive either oral empagliflozin 25 mg daily in the morning for 20 days, followed by 2-6 weeks wash out and 20 days placebo once daily in the morning, or the reverse sequence. Urine and blood analysis will be performed as detailed in the protocol.

This clinical study proposes to assess the impact of Libre on frequency, duration and severity of hypoglycaemia, compared with the Dexcom G5 realtime CGM and will focus on people with impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia.

The trial is a randomized, double-blind First in Human trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ZP4207 in healthy volunteers (HV) and in insulin-induced hypoglycemic T1D (type 1 diabetes) subjects as compared to native glucagon. The trial includes two parts. Part 1 includes dose escalation of ZP4207 in cohorts of 8 subjects. In each cohort, subjects will be randomized 3:1 to receive either a single ascending dose of ZP4207 (6 subjects) or a single fixed dose (SD) of native glucagon (2 subjects). The doses will be administered s.c. in 4-5 cohorts and i.m. in 3 cohorts. Part 2 includes two sequence groups of 10 hypoglycemic T1D subjects. The subjects will be treated with fixed single doses of ZP4207 and native glucagon s.c. in a sequential cross-over design in a randomized treatment order.

This is a randomized, controlled trial of Unified Safety System (USS) Virginia closed-loop versus sensor-augmented pump (SAP) therapy for hypoglycemia prevention in subjects with type 1 diabetes and hypoglycemia unawareness and/or risk for hypoglycemia.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that G-Pen(TM) glucagon is comparable to Lilly Glucagon(TM) in terms of safety and efficacy, as a treatment for severe hypoglycemia, a complication of diabetes.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of a fixed dose combination of vildagliptin plus metformin versus combination therapy of glimepiride plus metformin in glycemic variability in patients with type 2 diabetes who have not achieved adequate control of their disease prior to treatment with metformin monotherapy in optimal doses.
