About this study

Official title: Complementary Effects of New Diabetes Medications on Adrenal Function and Intestinal Microbiota

The primary aim of this observational study is to describe the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and Sodium-Glucose Co-transporter 2 inhibitors ( SGLT-2 inhibitors) on adrenal function. Secondary endpoint is change in intestinal microbiota.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational study conducted in patients with type 2 diabetes starting treatment with either GLP-1 receptor agonist or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor.

Planned study cohort consists of 60 patients: 30 patients starting GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment and 30 patients starting SGLT-2 inhibitor treatment. All patients must have metformin as background therapy. All other diabetes medications are allowed.

Patients are tested before starting treatment, at 1 month (stool sample only), 3 months and 12 months after starting treatment. The primary endpoint is change in overnight urinary aldosterone corrected for creatinine.

Secondary endpoint is change in intestinal microbiota composition.

    Measured: At 1 month after starting treatment, at 3 months and 12 months.

  2. Urinary aldosterone at 12 months

    Overnight urinary aldosterone at 12 months compared to pretreatment level.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Tartu at 1 site in Estonia.

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 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 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 Estonia. 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?

Urinary aldosterone at 3 months (time frame: 3 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 21 Feb 2023.
