About this study

Official title: Clinical Effect of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4) Inhibitors in Urinary Albumin to Creatinine Ratio in Patients With Overt Kidney Disease

The people being asked to participate in this study have type 2 diabetes and abnormal levels of protein in their urine. This indicates that they are starting to develop diabetic kidney disease. The standard treatment for this is the use of one of two blood pressure medicines, either an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). However, these medicines are not always completely effective in stopping/reversing the kidney disease. Some studies have previously suggested that another type of medicine, called sitagliptin, normal used to treat diabetes may also help prevent diabetic kidney disease from getting worse.

This study is being performed to test the effectiveness of sitagliptin as compared to a placebo, along with a stable dose of an ACE inhibitor or ARB, to determine whether or not it will reduce protein levels in their urine. Protein levels in the urine are a marker of the severity of kidney disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sitagliptin in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Microalbuminuria, run by University of Missouri-Columbia 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 6 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2017. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Aug 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Microalbuminuria Level (time frame: Six 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 10 Aug 2017.
