Who may be able to join

  • • An individual must be >18 years of age
  • Have diagnosed type 2 diabetic mellitus by one of the following criteria:
  • o Treated with diet, diet plus oral hypoglycemic agents (for at least one year), or insulin preceded by treatment with oral agents (for at least one year).

  • Individuals must be able to provide informed consent
  • Perform walking exercise testing on a treadmill
  • Be able to participate in a 12-week supervised exercise program.

Who cannot join

  • • Patients are currently exercising
  • Requiring dialysis
  • Have an Hematocrit <30%
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (>200/100mmHg)
  • Peripheral vascular disease.
  • An inability to understand English or give consent. Other exclusion criteria are: any contraindications to exercise testing or training as indicated by the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines such as: Unstable coronary heart disease and symptomatic heart failure, exercise capacity limited by health problems such as angina, severe arthritis, or extreme dyspnea on exertion, progressive neuromuscular disease, pulmonary disease., or having undergone a coronary revascularization within the past 6 months prior to enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. endothelial function measured by brachial artery flow mediated vasodilation

    Endothelium-mediated change in in vascular tone

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. arterial stiffness measured by pulse wave velocity

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

  2. Circulating markers of vascular health

    C-reactive protein, isoprostane F2, Asymmetric dimethylarginine

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

  3. aerobic capacity

    Peak oxygen consumption

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

  4. blood pressure

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

  5. 24-hour albuminuria

    assessed in 30 participants measured in milligram per gram creatinine

    Measured: at week 0 and at week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exercise in people with Focus Type 2 Diabetes Related Chronic Kidney Disease, run by University of Minnesota 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 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 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 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. 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?

endothelial function measured by brachial artery flow mediated vasodilation (time frame: at week 0 and at week 12). 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 24 Jul 2015.
