About this study

Official title: Observational Study on the Use of Incretins in Diabetic Patients: Evaluation of Metabolic Effects and Cardiovascular Events

Observational, retrospective study, conducted in diabetic patients aimed to evaluate the effects on the glyco-metabolic control and on cardiovascular events of different DPP-4 inhibitors. Patients will be stratified in patients taking different DPP-4 in addition to sulfonylureas, biguanides, thiazolidinediones, insulin, compared to those in therapy with other hypoglycemic classes, such as sulphonylureas, biguanides, thiazolidinediones, insulin, alone or in combination, in primary and secondary prevention.

Being tested
DPP-4 inhibitors
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by University of Pavia at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 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 24 May 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

Glycated hemoglobin (time frame: 8 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 May 2022.
