Trial summary

Cilostazol is an antiplatelet agent used to reduce the symptoms of intermittent claudication. Cilostazol inhibits phosphodiesterase III (PDE III), which causes it to be a vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Cilostazol on Plasma Adipocytokine and Arterial Stiffness in Type 2 Diabetes Patient With Metabolic Syndrome (Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controled, Cross-Over Study)

Cilostazol is an antiplatelet agent used to reduce the symptoms of intermittent claudication. Cilostazol inhibits phosphodiesterase III (PDE III), which causes it to be a vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Recently there were report of beneficial effect of cilostazol like vasodilation, lipid metabolism, and cytokine production. But there were few clinical studies that support these effects of cilostazol. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the vasodilatory and anti-inflammatory effect of cilostazol presented by PWV and plasma adipocytokines.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing cilostazol in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 and Metabolic Syndrome X, run by Korea University Anam 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 0 inclusion and 9 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 Dec 2007. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Hee Young Kim, MD, PhD (+82-2-920-5767, lynsette@korea.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The effect on pulse wave velocity (PWV) (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 NCT00573950, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Dec 2007.
