Trial summary

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major public health problem .Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is also high i.e. 78-96% in different groups of population in north India.

About this study

Official title: Oral Cholecalciferol in Prevention of Type 2 DM in Prediabetic Population With Vitamin D Insufficiency

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major public health problem .Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is also high i.e. 78-96% in different groups of population in north India. Observational studies find association between low Vitamin D status and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Prediabetes is a condition that progress to diabetes at a rate of 6-10% per year .There is mechanistic support that vitamin D may influence both insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity and subsequently T2DM incidence. In general, cross-sectional and prospective studies support the role of vitamin D in the prevention of T2DM. This study will be a single blind randomized placebo controlled trial to study the effect of oral cholecalciferol in insulin sensitivity and secretion in adults with prediabetes who are also vitamin D insufficient.

Being tested
oral cholecalciferol + life style counselling, placebo + life style counselling

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in insulin sensitivity using OGIS (oral glucose insulin sensitivity index)

    Measured: Base line and 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. change in indices of insulin secretion using HOMA1-beta% and HOMA2-beta %

    Measured: Base line and 6 months

  2. change in other insulin sensitivity indices

    QUICKI, HOMA 1-IR ,HOMA2- IR ,WBISI( Matsuda index),hepatic and muscle insulin sensitvity indices

    Measured: Base line and 6 months

  3. Change in Hb A1c

    Measured: Base line and 6 months

  4. Change in fasting and post prandial blood glucose

    Measured: 0,3, 6months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing oral cholecalciferol + life style counselling in people with Prediabetes and Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.

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 7 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 26 Oct 2015. 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 India. 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 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?

Change in insulin sensitivity using OGIS (oral glucose insulin sensitivity index) (time frame: Base line and 6 months). 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 26 Oct 2015.
