What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the change in fasting and post-load plasma glucose levels during OGTT

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. the changes in endothelial function, measured by circulating adhesion molecules

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. the changes in beta cell functions derived from the glucose/insulin levels during OGTT

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. the safety and the tolerability of sitagliptin, including clinical and laboratory adverse experiences, laboratory values, weight, and vital signs.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sitagliptin in people with Impaired Glucose Tolerance, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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 22 Mar 2010. 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 Taiwan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Lee-Ming Chuang, MD, PhD (886-2-23123456 ext. 65038, leeming@ntu.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the change in fasting and post-load plasma glucose levels during OGTT (time frame: 24 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 22 Mar 2010.
