Group 2 (n=30): are the patients who are prescribed glimepiride * All patients will be followed up during 3 months' period. * At the end of 3 months, step 4 will be repeated.

Who may be able to join

  • 60 Patients with type 2 DM diagnosed clinically. The age ranged from 18 to 70 years. There are no limits to the duration of DM and gender.
  • HbA1c ≥ 7

Who cannot join

  • Other types of DM
  • Hypersensitivity to the drug
  • Abnormal liver function

About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of Dapagliflozin Versus Glimepiride Effect on Insulin Regulated Aminopeptidase (IRAP) and Interleukin-34 (IL-34) in Patient With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Research objectives:

The aim of the study to check the effect of Dapagliflozin versus Glimepiride on insulin regulated aminopeptidase (IRAPe), NT-Pro BNP and interleukin-34 (IL-34) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and associated it with insulin resistance.

Read the detailed description

Method and proposal steps:

  1. Approval will be obtained from Research Ethics Committee of Faculty of Pharmacy, Damanhour University.
  2. All participant agreed to take part in this clinical study and provide informed consent.
  3. 60 Patients with type 2 DM will be enrolled Internal Medicine Department, Tanta University Hospital.
  4. Serum samples will be collected for measuring the biomarkers.
  5. All enrolled 60 patients will be mentioned as two groups; Group 1(n=30): are the patients who are prescribed dapagliflozin to control their blood sugar level. Group 2 (n=30): are the patients who are prescribed glimepiride
  6. All patients will be followed up during 3 months' period.
  7. At the end of 3 months, step 4 will be repeated.
  8. Statistical tests appropriate to the study design will be conducted to evaluate the significance of the results.
  9. Measuring outcomes: the primary outcome is the change from baseline to post-treatment insulin sensitivity reflected by change of serum level of measured marker after 3 months.
  10. Results, discussion, conclusion, and recommendations will be given.

Methodology:

  1. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) 2 hrs. post prandial blood glucose(2hPPBG) will be measured by glucometer.
  2. HbA1c %, Fasting plasma insulin (FPI), Interleukin-34 (IL-34), NT-Pro BNP and extracellular domain of insulin regulated aminopeptidase (IRAPe) will be assayed by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).
  3. Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) will be calculated.
Being tested

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?

Blood Sugar (mg/dl) (time frame: three months). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04240171, which also lists 4 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 18 Apr 2023.
