About this study

Official title: Decrease in Body Fat and Increase in Ketone Body After 6-month Treatment of Empagliflozin in Korean Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes of body composition induced by Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor and its metabolic consequence in Korean type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Read the detailed description

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor increases urinary excretion of glucose, promoting glycemic control and weight loss. However, it is unclear whether weight loss is attributed to decrease in fat components and associated with favorable changes in metabolic profile. The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes of body composition induced by SGLT2 inhibitor and its metabolic consequence in Korean type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Being tested
Empagliflozin 10 MG, Hypoglycemics Oral

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Empagliflozin 10 MG and Hypoglycemics Oral in people with Diabetes Mellitus and Fat; Intolerance, Pancreas, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2023. 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 South Korea. 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 Yujin N Shin, MD (82-31-787-7035 ext. 82317877035, 54256@snubh.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

HbA1c (time frame: 6 months). 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 14 Aug 2023.
