About this study

Official title: Early Performance in Patients With Type-II-Diabetes Mellitus Under New Treatment With SGLT-2-Inhibitors Compared to Control Groups.

The PUSH Study is conceived to investigate the early effects of SGLT-2-Inhibitors on the physical performance of patients with Type-II-Diabetes mellitus compared to patients under other therapy regimes. Patients shall be divided into 3 groups: I - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus under new treatment with an SGLT2-Inhibitor. II - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus without SGLT-2- Inhibitor medication. III - Patients without type II diabetes mellitus but with similar comorbidities to the previous groups.

Read the detailed description

SGLT-2-Inhibitors have been shown to improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type II diabetes mellitus. Present evidence shows this effect to be not directly related to better serum glucose levels because the effect was measurable within several days of initiation of the treatment.

In a prospective single-centre double-blinded comparative observational study, other aspects of the effect of SGLT-2-Inhibitors shall be analyzed from patient registry, particularly the physical performance of patients under new treatment with SGLT-2-Inhibitors. Patient consent will be sort for the analysis of clinical data during the duration of stay.

Patients included in the registry suitable for analysis shall be divided into 3 groups: I - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus under new treatment with an SGLT2-Inhibitor. II - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus without SGLT-2- Inhibitor medication. III - Patients without type II diabetes mellitus but with similar comorbidities to the previous groups.

    Measured: 28 days

  6. Muscle anatomy (echogenicity)

    Change in muscle architecture parameter (MAP) measured as the mid-thigh echogenicity of the lateral vastus muscle, using image J software, arbitary units (AU)

    Measured: 28 days

  7. Biochemical (metabolic function)

    change in routine laboratory parameter related to metabolic function: Uric acid in serum, expressed in micromol/l

    Measured: 28 days

  8. Body constitution (BMI)

    change in body mass index measured as weight/height x height expressed in kg/m2

    Measured: 28 days

  9. Body constitution (Hip circumference)

    change in hip circumference measured at the maximum posterior protrusion of the buttocks in cm

    Measured: 28 days

  10. Body constitution (Muscle mass predicted I)

    change in muscle mass predicted using the Baumgartner equation 0.2487(BM) + 0.0483(ST)-0.1584(GQUAD) +0.0732(HGS) +2.5843(SEX) + 5.8828 in kg

    Measured: 28 days

  11. Body constitution (Muscle mass predicted II)

    change in muscle mass predicted using the muscle thickness of the forearm (4.89xMT-Ulna(cm)xHeight(m)-9.15) in kg

    Measured: 28 days

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 8 Oct 2020. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Distance (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03422263, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 8 Oct 2020.
