What is being measured

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

  1. change in blood glucose load response to sitagliptin

    change from blood glucose response at 12 weeks

    Measured: pre-treatment of sitagliptin and post 12-week treatment of sitagliptin

  2. change in blood insulin response to sitagliptin

    change from blood insulin response at 12 weeks

    Measured: pre-treatment of sitagliptin and post 12-week treatment of sitagliptin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sitagliptin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and PreDiabetes, run by National University of Malaysia at 1 site in Malaysia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 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 Malaysia. 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 blood glucose load response to sitagliptin (time frame: pre-treatment of sitagliptin and post 12-week treatment of sitagliptin). The study lists 2 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 15 Mar 2022.
