140 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of H0E901-U300 to Lantus, in change of glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Secondary Objectives: To demonstrate the superiority of H0E901-U300 in comparison with Lantus in: * Percentage of participants with at least one severe and/or confirmed (by plasma glucose ≤70mg/dL \[3.9mmol/L\]) hypoglycemia event from 22:00 to 08:59 next morning * Percentage of participants with at least one nocturnal (from 00:00-05:59) severe and/or confirmed (≤70mg/dL \[3.9mmol/L\]) hypoglycemia event * Percentage of participants with at least one severe and/or confirmed (by plasma glucose ≤70mg/dL \[3.9mmol/L\]) hypoglycemia event occurring at any time of day * HbA1c change
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of roflumilast plus alogliptin on glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of resveratrol (plant derived food supplement) on inflammatory mediators and insulin resistance at the cellular and molecular level in obese non diabetic and type 2 diabetic subjects in vivo.
This study aims to determine whether a 6-month multilevel intervention involving problem-solving training, exercise training and support from community health workers is more effective in improving outcomes for individuals with low socioeconomic status, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and early cardiac dysfunction than receiving education and access to a community exercise facility.
The study team is studying how increasing dietary fiber, specifically through adding potato starch to participant's diet, may impact the species of bacteria in participant's gut microbiome. The study team also wants to understand if adding potato starch to participant's diet helps these bacteria make more short chain fatty acids, a byproduct the team thinks may benefit participant's health.
The majority of T2DM adults show thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency which may contribute to impaired function. This study will examine patients with T2DM through brain MRI scans, cognition assessments, blood tests, and questionnaires. Our goal is to see if a thiamine treatment (taking vitamin B1 capsules) can improve function. Patients will be asked to come to UCLA two times three months apart and each visit will last about 2.5-3 hours.
The study team will examine the effects of elevated plasma ketone levels following initiation of SGLT2 inhibitor therapy in high-risk type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) individuals with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) providing an energy-rich fuel that is taken up with great avidity by the myocardium, to measure change in Left Ventricle diastolic and systolic function
Sulfonylurea medications are unsafe for older patients with diabetes. They are associated not only with hypoglycemia, but also with falls and increased cardiovascular risk. Yet they continue to be prescribed frequently. Indeed, older adults with type 2 diabetes, who are especially prone to adverse effects, are more likely to be prescribed sulfonylureas than younger patients. This is unfortunate since over the past several years, newer, safer, and more effective classes of medications (GLP-1 agonists and SGLT2-inhibitors) have emerged. The investigators acknowledge that sulfonylureas are inexpensive and that their low cost is a driver of continued use. However, the investigators believe patients and providers should have discussions about the risks of sulfonylureas and safer and more effective alternatives, to make diabetes care safer overall in ambulatory settings. Our research is designed to promote such discussions. The investigators will first identify patients taking sulfonylureas regularly. Next, using recommendations from AHRQ and the Canadian Deprescribing Network, the investigators will empower patients to discuss their medications with their providers through a simple question prompt sheet. Patients will be divided into an intervention group which receives explicit prompting questions, and a control group that receives a general brochure on diabetes medications. Health care providers will receive education about newer diabetes medications through case-based discussions and academic detailing. Finally the investigators will measure key outcomes including the proportion of patients who have discussions about sulfonylureas and alternatives, rates of discontinuation, and measures of control of diabetes and associated cardiovascular risks. The investigators will also evaluate the experiences of patients and providers qualitatively through brief, semi-structured interviews. Should our multi-faceted, patient-oriented intervention prove effective in promoting discussions of sulfonylureas and alternatives, and also discontinuation of sulfonylureas and switching to newer alternatives, the investigators will incorporate our prompting questions into routine care for patients taking sulfonylureas. Our intervention can be easily disseminated to other settings and therefore has considerable potential to improve safety among patients with type 2 diabetes nationwide.
The CARING study assesses the health benefits of nutrition education for Blue Cross Blue Shield subscribers, as well as potential healthcare cost savings to subscribers and the insurance company.
A phase 2a trial randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to determine whether NMN administration improves DKD, as indicated by a significantly greater reduction in UACR compared with placebo administration. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive either 1000 mg NMN or placebo twice daily.
The goal of this study is to improve the therapeutic management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The main questions to answer are if a program of non-weight bearing exercise helps the DFU heal faster than standard wound care. This randomized clinical trial will determine how blood flow to the ulcer and whole body metabolism may be improved with exercise. Participants will be randomized to either exercise + standard wound care or standard wound care alone and undergo testing for leg blood flow, fitness and measures of metabolism through blood draws. The intervention period is 6-weeks. Eligible participants must have an existing foot ulcer uncomplicated by infection and be medically cleared to exercise.
This research study proposes to quantify the efficacy of the novel high intensity body-weight circuit (HIBC) training intervention on metabolic profile, body composition, and health related fitness exercise in middle aged persons with type-2 diabetes (T2DM). This research project is extremely relevant to public health, in that prevalence of T2DM continues to rise on a national and global scale, placing a heavy economic cost on both the healthcare industry and the individual patient in an age-dependent fashion. Results of this study may provide an effective and appealing alternative exercise intervention for cardiometabolic disease management in adults with T2DM, and have significant clinical and public health applications.
Glycemic control is often the main indicator of successful diabetes care, but a singular focus on glycemic control may lead to patients' overall health and wellbeing being overlooked or undervalued. The investigators have previously developed an intervention comprised of (a) a set of conversation cards designed to enable patients to identify aspects of life with diabetes important to them and to share them with their clinician to obtain their input; and (b) materials that help clinicians respond to patient concerns. The investigators will now conduct a randomized clinical trial to test the feasibility of the research procedures and efficacy of the intervention with respect to patient reported outcome measures.
Caloric restriction (and RYGB) improves insulin action and lowers fasting glucose, glucagon and EGP, without changes in postprandial EGP and glucagon concentrations. Caloric restriction also improves hepatic steatosis and lowers fasting AA. These changes may represent restoration of glucagon's hepatic actions. This experiment will determine whether caloric restriction improves glucagon's actions on hepatic amino acid, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in T2DM in comparison to a baseline experiment performed separately in people with T2DM.
PRECIDENTD is a randomized, open label, pragmatic clinical trial designed to compare rates of the total number of cardiovascular, kidney, and death events among two alternative treatments for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and either established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or at high risk for ASCVD. To accomplish this objective, we will randomly assign 6,000 patients with established T2D and ASCVD or high-risk for ASCVD in a 1:1 allocation to sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA). Participants will be followed for the occurrence of the trial primary endpoint of the total (first and recurrent) number of episodes of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, arterial revascularization, hospitalization for heart failure, development of end-stage kidney disease, kidney transplantation, and mortality, counting all events from randomization until end of study.
This study will assess differences in patient preferences and glucose control between continuous glucose monitoring and standard glucose checks in pregnant patients with Type 2 Diabetes. 40 participants will be on study for approximately 182 days (26 weeks).
Hyperglycemia in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is initially treated with metformin coupled with intentional caloric restriction, which is difficult to sustain due to multiple barriers, including acquiring the necessary knowledge, teaching the intervention, cost of delivery and potential burden on quality of life. In contrast to intentionally restricting calories, time restricted eating (TRE), presents a simplified view of eating focused on restricting the eating window, which allows ad libitum intake per a person's dietary preferences during a daily fixed eating window. This study proposes a 24 week feasibility study to test if TRE is a viable alternative to Caloric Restriction in improving glycemic measures while accounting for weight loss in overweight/obese patients \[BMI:25-45 kg/m2\] with metformin-only treated Type 2 diabetes.
In this study the primary aims are to investigate the effect of resistance exercise training with different degrees of effort on glycemic control and psychological variables in individuals living with type 2 diabetes mellitus. As a secondary aim, investigate adherence and dropout rates and reasons for dropping out and adhering or not to the protocols.
This is a single arm, multi-center, prospective study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System in adults with type 2 diabetes requiring insulin therapy.
Investigators propose to study youth across the spectrum of body mass index (BMI) and dysglycemia. This approach will allow investigators to disentangle the relationship of key features of type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk (e.g. obesity) with intermediary physiologic changes (e.g. insulin resistance, inflammation, β-cell dysfunction and dysglycemia) that pose a risk for the brain. Investigators will determine which of these factors are most associated with differences in brain structure and function among groups, over time, and how these effects differ from normal neurodevelopment.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety and efficacy of tirzepatide compared to placebo in children or teenagers with type 2 diabetes taking metformin, or basal insulin, or both. The overall study will last about 60 weeks with up to 14 clinic visits and 6 phone visits. Clinic visits will include blood sample collection, physical exam and questionnaire.
The purpose of this study is to determine glycemic response of four different meals containing either whole green peas, whole lentils, powdered green peas, or powdered lentils in comparison to Glucola. Participants are adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus or metabolic syndrome.
BT-001 is a software program intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes, under the guidance of their physician, improve glycemic control (i.e., levels of blood sugar). The BT-001 software delivers a type of behavioral therapy to patients via a mobile application that targets behaviors related to achieving glycemic control. The effectiveness of BT-001 will be measured by its ability to help patients reduce Hemoglobin A1c, or HbA1c (a marker in the blood that measures blood sugar) in patients with type 2 diabetes.
The study team will examine the effects of SGLT2i (and SGLT2i-induced increases in plasma ketone concentrations) on skeletal muscle and cardiac ketone uptake, skeletal muscle bioenergetics, cardiopulmonary exercise capacity, and patient-reported functional outcomes.
Tabula Rasa HealthCare (TRHC), d/b/a CareKinesis, is the first national pharmacy that provides science-based medication risk identification and mitigation technologies and services. CareKinesis utilizes medication decision support tools and pharmacists certified in geriatrics to provide pharmacy services for various healthcare organizations including PACE organizations (described above). Presently, CareKinesis services more than 35 PACE organizations, including approximately 140 PACE sites, across the country. As a national PACE pharmacy provider since 2011, CareKinesis focuses on improving medication regimens to reduce medication-related risks while enhancing economic, clinical and humanistic outcomes. Pharmacist-led clinical services and medication safety reviews are currently being offered to PACE organizations under the direction of licensed healthcare prescribers by TRHC (CareKinesis). Through mutual data-sharing agreements, patient data will be collected retrospectively for patients satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. TRHC via other programs such as the Center for Medicare \& Medicaid Enhanced Medication Therapy Management program with BlueCross BlueShield Northern Plain Alliance and ClearStone, or via collaboration as third party with other health plans can have access to de-identified patient's data. TRHC has also established an agreement with the Watson IBM database to retrieve relevant patients' information for research.
This study will randomize 90 adults with type-2 diabetes (T2DM) from three different states (RI, MA, and AL) to a 12-week program of either (1) Iyengar yoga or (2) a Standard Exercise program. Follow up assessments occur at 3 and 6-months post-intervention. Results of this study will determine the ability to deliver these interventions with strong rigor and fidelity across multiple sites and will establish the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention across racially and ethnically diverse populations. The study will also examine factors (e.g., outcome expectations, barriers to home practice) that promote long-term adherence to yoga and/or physical activity.
Accessible and effective interventions for chronic diseases such as diabetes are especially needed in the under-resourced patient population. This is a pilot randomized control trial compares usual diabetic care to usual diabetic care plus virtual health coaching utilizing lifestyle action plans in under-resourced adult type II diabetic patients. This is a one-site study at an under-resourced family medicine residency clinic. The primary outcome is the change of insulin resistance as measured by HOMA2-IR. Secondary metabolic outcomes are being tracked. Potentially confounding variables related to SDoH, race, and engagement in health coaching are being assessed for. The cost of the intervention as well as expensive healthcare utilization as measured by ER visits are also being tracked.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of the WW program on people with Type 2 diabetes and the effect on glycemic control. This study will be a 6 month prospective, single arm clinical trial coordinated by Pennington Biomedical Research Center. Up to 150 participants will be recruited across 3 sites. Participants will have Type 2 diabetes and overweight/obesity.
Hispanic adults are twice as likely to have type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and 1.5 times more likely to die from the disease than non-Hispanic whites. These disparities are mediated, in part, by less healthful levels of physical activity, dietary quality, medication adherence, and self-monitoring of blood glucose than non-Hispanic whites. Innovative approaches that arise from affected communities are needed to address these health disparities. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) has been successful in targeting health issues among Hispanic and immigrant populations; CBPR is an effective approach for addressing health behaviors in a sociocultural context. In 2004, the research team developed a CBPR partnership between immigrant communities and academic institutions called Rochester Healthy Community Partnership (RHCP) Storytelling or narrative-based interventions are designed to incorporate culture-centric health messaging to promote behavior change among vulnerable populations. Digital storytelling interventions are narrative-based videos elicited through a CBPR approach to surface the authentic voices of individuals overcoming obstacles toward engaging in health promoting behaviors to shape positive health behaviors of viewers through influences on attitudes and beliefs. RHCP partners from Hispanic communities identified T2D as a priority area for intervention, and have co-created each of the formative phases leading up to this proposal. Narrative theory and social cognitive theory formed the conceptual basis for intervention development. The study team conducted surveys and focus groups to derive the approach and personnel for building an authentic intervention that was created in a digital storytelling workshop where stories about diabetes self-management were captured, recorded, and edited to derive the final intervention products in video forma. The respective digital storytelling videos were pilot tested with 25 patients across healthcare institutions in Minnesota and Arizona. The intervention was rated as highly acceptable, culturally relevant, and perceived as efficacious for motivating behavioral change. The overall objective of this project is therefore to assess the efficacy of a digital storytelling intervention derived through a CBPR approach on self-management of T2D among Hispanic adults during a pandemic.
The current paradigm of Type 2 Diabetes treatment relies heavily on expensive pharmacotherapy even though lifestyle factors are at the root of the condition. This study is designed to assess the feasibility of a low carbohydrate diet coupled with a time restricted feeding intervention to improve participant sensitivity, reducing their need for insulin. 20 participants will be invited to enroll from the 20 S Park St Clinic in Madison, WI and remain on study for up to 6 months.
