Low blood TG patientsExperimentalsubjects with baseline blood triglyceride level ≤ 1.7 mmol/l will have intervention device (DIAMOND Implantable Pulse Generator (IPG)) programmed to deliver GCM signal including the setting of automatic eating detection parameters for a 48 weeks period.
Receives: Device: DIAMOND System
High blood TG patients treated with blood TG lowering therapyExperimentalsubjects with baseline blood triglyceride level > 1.7 mmol/l will have their device programmed to deliver GCM signal including the setting of automatic eating detection parameters for a 48 weeks period and will receive fenofibrate at the dose of 160mg per day
Receives: Device: DIAMOND System
High blood TG patientsPlacebo comparatorsubjects with baseline blood triglyceride level > 1.7 mmol/l will have their device programmed to deliver GCM signal including the setting of automatic eating detection parameters for a 48 weeks period and will receive placebo of fenofibrate administered in the same schedule as the drug.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DIAMOND System in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by MetaCure Limited at 13 sites in 6 countries.

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 18 inclusion and 23 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 16 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Poland, Greece, Italy, Serbia, Australia and 1 more country. 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

improvement of HbA1c (time frame: 48 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 16 Mar 2016.
