Trial summary

Type 2 diabetes patients have been proved to have decreased of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels. Incretin based therapy is associated with improved glycemic control by boosting GLP-1 levels . Nevertheless, the clinical effects are in great diversity for poorly controlled Type 2 diabetes patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Genetic Variations Study of Incretin Based Therapy for Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Type 2 diabetes patients have been proved to have decreased of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels. Incretin based therapy is associated with improved glycemic control by boosting GLP-1 levels . Nevertheless, the clinical effects are in great diversity for poorly controlled Type 2 diabetes patients. This study is designed to understand the pharmacological effects and genetic variation of incretin based therapy on type 2 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Background:

Since GLP-1 receptor is encoded by GLP1R ( glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor) gene, individuals may veritably respond to incretion based treatment, depending on the presence or absence of minor alleles characterized by single nucleotide polymorphisms. The genotyping of patients will be performed to compare the genetic factors and the pharmacological effects.

Expected Results: How to select a anti-diabetic drug tailored to the individual becomes more and more important because the enormously increasing classes of treatment modality. This study could be of great help in recommending the best possible agent for an individual, improving the possibility of treatment success, and justifying if the need of expensive drugs in a given patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Chang Gung Memorial 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 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 2 Feb 2016. 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. 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?

mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions (MAGE) (time frame: 3 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 2 Feb 2016.
