About this study

Official title: Eye Blood Flow and the Kidney

The purpose of this study is to the determine the effect of salt intake and Captopril on the ophthalmic artery (OA) blood supply of individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Read the detailed description

The overall objective of this study is to ascertain if salt intake affects ophthalmic artery (OA) blood flow. In addition, we will study both the eye and kidney response to ACE inhibition compared to placebo while controlling salt intake in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

We hypothesize that salt intake will affect OA blood flow.

We will initially look at both eye and renal response to subjects on a low salt diet (10mEq Na/day) followed by response to high salt diet (200mEq Na/day). In addition, we may look at eye response while subjects consume their regular diet.

Being tested
Captopril, placebo
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in ophthalmic artery blood flow from baseline

    Eye blood flow will be measured at baseline and post drug time points (3 total)

    Measured: 1 hour post drug, 2 hours post drug, 3 hours post drug

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in blood pressure from baseline

    Blood pressure will be monitored throughout the study starting at baseline

    Measured: Every 15 minutes for 3 hours

  2. Change in renal plasma flow (RPF) from baseline

    Renal Plasma Flow (to measure kidney function) will be measured at baseline and post drug time points (3 total)

    Measured: 1 hour post drug, 2 hours post drug, 3 hours post drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Captopril in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Brigham and Women's Hospital 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 3 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 1 Aug 2019. 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. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 Ebrahim Barkoudah, M.D.,M.P.H. (617-732-6901, ebarkoudah@partners.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in ophthalmic artery blood flow from baseline (time frame: 1 hour post drug, 2 hours post drug, 3 hours post drug). 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 Aug 2019.
