Trial Information

Summary: Someday, instead of thinking about Diabetes medication on S M T W T F S it might only have to be on MONDAY.
An investigational diabetes medication that is administered once a week, once every two weeks, or once a month is being evaluated as part of a medical research study.

Although many diabetics are able to control their blood sugar levels through diet and exercise, many others also require a medication. And while there are current medications available for treating type 2 diabetes, most require daily dosing - a constant reminder of the disease. As a result, medical researchers feel it's important to explore other possible diabetes treatment options that provide an alternative to daily dosing. Today local doctors are conducting a medical research study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of an investigational diabetes medication administered to participants once a week, once every two weeks, or once every four weeks, depending on which treatment group they are assigned.

Qualified participants will receive study-related medical evaluations and investigational medication at no cost. Reimbursement for time and travel will also be provided.

To be eligible for this study, you must be:

  • Between the ages of 18 and 75 years
  • Medically-diagnosed with type 2 diabetes
  • Receiving treatment for your diabetes either through:
    • a metformin only based medication for at least 3 months prior to screening, OR
    • a diet and exercise program, with no antidiabetic medication for at least 3 months prior to screening
