About this study

Official title: Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy Measurement Technique is Helping Develop More Effective Diagnostic Tools and Therapeutic Regimes for Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Other Mitochondrial Diseases Some Time in the Future

There has been increasing support for our hypothesis that mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in the etiology of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and the overlapping Metabolic Syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Once the mitochondrial defect(s) of these subjects has been defined, the data will be used to develop two non-invasive screening tools to detect mitochondrial defects in Diabetes Mellitus and Metabolic Syndrome patients.

The device call Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy develope at Beckman Laser Instituteis is non-invasive measurement technique, to measure the properties of the muscle tisuue and vascular activity (calf, bicep, or the brain)to evaluate the patient's metabolic status and and to assess muscle mitochondrial OXPHOS function.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metabolic Syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of California, Irvine at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 1 Nov 2022. 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 United States. 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.

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?

Near Infrared Spectroscopy to assess muscle mitochondrial OXPHOS function. (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 1 Nov 2022.
