About this study

Single-center open-label multiple dose randomized two period cross-over study to examine Advanced Glycation End Product (AGE) levels in human subjects pre and post empagliflozin administration.

Read the detailed description

Single-center open-label multiple dose randomized two period cross-over study.

The North-Shore Long Island Jewish Institutional Review Board will be used to approve our study protocol.

All patients will give written informed consent and comply with the Helsinki agreement and good clinical practices guidelines.

Treatment Plan:

Eligible patients will be randomized to receive linagliptin 5mg daily or empagliflozin 25mg daily for 30 days followed by a 30 day washout period and crossover. All pre-existing diabetic medications will continue unchanged.

Fasting blood carboxymethyl lysine (CML), methylglyoxal (MG), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, 8-isoprostane, and routine chemistries and urinary CML, MG, and creatinine will be measured at baseline, after 30 days, 60 days and 90 days.

AGE levels will be measured by Elisa.

Being tested
empagliflozin, linagliptin
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • empagliflozinDrug

    Also called Jardiance

    Test to see how 30 days of jardiance changes serum and urinary advanced glycation end product levels

  • linagliptinDrug

    Also called tradjenta

    Test to see how 30 days of tradjenta changes serum and urinary advanced glycation end product levels

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing empagliflozin and linagliptin in people with SGLT-2 Inhibitors and Advanced Glycation End Products, run by Northwell Health.

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 8 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 AGE levels (time frame: 30 days). 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 15 Feb 2018.
