About this study

Official title: Regulation of Immune Cells in Obese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Treated With Liraglutide (Victoza)

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of exogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 on the immune system i.e on the regulation of immune cells important in diseases such as obesity and diabetes.

The hypotheses are:

  • Glucagon-like peptide-1 has an immunological effect observed by studying immune cells in the blood
  • Treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 increases the number of immune cells in the blood
  • Treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 leads to a more anti-inflammatory cytokine profile in the blood

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Hvidovre University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 28 Jul 2014. 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 Denmark. 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?

Change in number of specific immune cells in blood detected by flow cytometry (time frame: Before and 12 weeks after initiation of liraglutide treatment). 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 28 Jul 2014.
