About this study

Official title: A Study of PPAR-Gamma Agonist-Rosiglitazone for Determining Cardiac Adverse Effects in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of rosiglitazone treatment on cardiac function compared with metformin

Read the detailed description

Large scale clinical trials have reported fluid retention and increase in plasma volume (6% to 7%) with glitazone therapy, with an increased incidence of peripheral edema occuring in 2% to 5% patients. Some evidence suggests that this effect may be related to increased endothelial cell permeability induced by glitazones therapy. Others report that glitazones may interfere with renal hemodynamics. In controlled clinical trials, the frequency of new onset congestive heart failure was very low in glitazones treated patients. The incidence of congestive heart failure is higher in patients receiving combination therapy with insulin and glitazones. Only few studies compared rosiglitazone and metformin on cardiac safety. Recently a study reported a reversible increase in endothelial cell permeability to albumin in cultured pulmonary arterial cells treated with rosiglitazone. To our knowledge, there is not any clinical study published for showing the reversibility of the cardiac adverse effects if the rosiglitazone treatment is continued.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rosiglitazone(drug), cardiac adverse effects in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Baskent University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Plasma Brain Natriuretic Peptide levels, echocardiographic measurements were made before the treatment and repeated after three months and six months of the treatment. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00300911, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 10 Mar 2006.
