About this study

Official title: ACE/ACE2 Ratio in Diabetic Patients Treated With Antihypertensive Drugs

This feasibility study is designed to examine modulation of the relative activities of ACE and ACE2 in diabetic patients following treatment with the angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1R) antagonist, Candesartan.

This study will provide a closer insight to the possible involvement of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS)-related enzymatic components in development or attenuation of vascular pathogenesis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing candesartan in people with NIDDM, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Shlomo Keidar, MD (97248542518, skeidar@rambam.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ACE and ACE2 activities in monocytes. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Feb 2006.
