Diabetes Prevention Clinical Trials

The overall study will consist of two parts conducted in tandem: This Pilot Study is a 3-month pilot RCT study to test the feasibility of the Sweetch app in combination with a digital body weight scale (DBWS), with both groups receiving usual care for prediabetes.

The study is a 2-arm, multicenter, 1:1 randomized, placebo controlled clinical trial. All subjects will receive close monitoring for development of AGT or T1DM. Subjects will receive Abatacept or placebo and close monitoring for development of AGT or T1DM. To assess the safety, efficacy, and mode of action of Abatacept ...

The study will determine whether the anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, teplizumab, can help to prevent or delay the onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in relatives determined to be at very high risk for developing the disease. Teplizumab has been studied in new onset type 1 diabetes for testing of efficacy ...

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease. This means that the immune system (the part of the body which helps fight infections) mistakenly attacks and destroys the cells that produce insulin (islet cells found in the pancreas). As these cells are destroyed, the body's ability to produce insulin decreases. ...

Introduction Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disorder associated with poor survival. Endothelial dysfunction resulting from 1) genetic susceptibility, and 2) a triggering stimulus that initiates pulmonary vascular injury, the two-hit hypothesis, appears to play a central role both in the pathogenesis and progression of PAH. Inflammation appears to ...

Approximately one third of Canadian children and adolescents can be classified as having overweight or obesity. Health-care professionals (HCP), particularly primary care physicians, play a critical role in helping to address weight-related issues with patients and their families. A primary care-based obesity treatment model may be a practical means of ...

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of ertugliflozin (MK-8835) in pediatric participants with T2DM on metformin with/without insulin. The primary hypothesis of the study is that the addition of ertugliflozin reduces hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) more than the addition of placebo after 24 weeks of treatment.

Background There is currently no data on invasive measurement of FFR, CFR and IMR in patients with diabetes mellitus. Studies such as RIPCORD has shown that using coronary angiography alone to guide revascularization strategy may be flawed in a significant proportion of patients. Patients with diabetes mellitus are more likely ...

To provide riociguat therapy to eligible patients with PAH originating from Bayer-sponsored trials with BAY63-2521/ Riociguat / Adempas who are currently or recently treated in these trials until lack of patient benefit as assessed by investigator, or commercial availability and reimbursement.

This is a single center, phase II trial where after a process of stem cell mobilization and conditioning, adult subjects receive a CD34-selected autologous peripheral blood stem cell rescue. By virtue of positive selection for the stem/progenitor cell marker of CD34, the graft will be at least 3-log depleted for ...
