About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Prospective, Parallel Design Study to Compare the Effectiveness of Sitagliptin Versus Glimepiride on Endothelial Dysfunction During an Oral Glucose Loading in Drug Naive Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.

To investigate whether single administration of sitaglitpin can restore acute endothelial dysfunction and ameliorate impaired increase of the number of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) after oral glucose loading in patients with T2DM.

To compare the effect of sitagliptin and glimepiride on endothelial function evaluated by flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) and the number of circulating EPCs in patients with T2DM.

Read the detailed description

Acute and chronic improvement of endothelial function is expected through the pleiotropic effect of DPP-4 inhibitors. A randomized, prospective, open-labeled, parallel design. The duration of treatments with sitagliptin or glimepiride is 12 weeks. The number of study centers is a single (Dokkyo Medical University Hospital). Participants will be randomized into the two treatment groups; (a) 50mg sitagliptin (N=15) and (b) 1mg glimepiride (N=15).

Anti-Hyperglycemic effect is expected to be similar according to our study

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in endothelial function during the OGTT evaluated by flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD). The change is defined as below, assuming the peak value and changes of FMD will be observed at t=60 min.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in endothelial function during OGTT* evaluated by endo-PAT. Change in endothelial function after 12-week treatment at the fasting state evaluated by endo-PAT and FMD.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing dieting, Sitagliptin and Glimepiride in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Dokkyo Medical University at 2 sites in Japan.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 17 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 2 sites in Japan. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yoshimasa Aso, MD (81-282-86-1111, yaso@dokkyomed.ac.jp), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in endothelial function during the OGTT evaluated by flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD). The change is defined as below, assuming the peak value and changes of FMD will be observed at t=60 min. (time frame: 12 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 17 Feb 2016.
