About this study

Type II diabetes (T2D) is characterized by endothelial dysfunction, resulting in a poor tissue perfusion and function as well as an increased risk of cardiovascular events. ATP, which is released from the red blood cells, contributes to the regulation of the blood flow and studies have shown that red blood cells taken from T2D patients have an impaired ability to release ATP. However, it is not known whether the changes in the ATP system is an underlying cause of the poor tissue perfusion observed in T2D. The purpose of project 1 is to test the hypothesis that the deterioration in blood flow in T2D is caused by a reduced release ATP from red blood cells, and to test if pharmacological manipulation of cAMP will normalize ATP release, plasma ATP levels and thereby blood flow.

Furthermore, epidemiological studies show a clear link between regular exercise and a reduced risk of serious cardiovascular disease. The extent to which a physically active lifestyle may improve endothelial function in T2D is unknown. Regular physical activity improves vascularization and induces an anti-inflammatory environment. Both the angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of physical activity is in part mediated by substances released from the active muscle. These muscle-derived substances are classified as myokines and have paracrine, autocrine and endocrine effects and may thereby affect distant tissues. The purpose of the project 2 is to investigate whether high intensity interval training may reverse endothelial dysfunction in T2D through increased release of ATP and myokines. In individuals with T2D we will determined blood flow in the muscle tissue using advanced ultrasound. In addition, using intravascular and intramuscular microdialysis we will determine ATP levels in blood and in the muscle interstitium.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Exercise training in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Anders Rasmussen Rinnov at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 inclusion and 18 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 16 Jun 2015. 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 Denmark. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Kamilla Winding, MSc PhD (+4535459574, kamilla.winding@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glucose metabolism (time frame: 12 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 NCT02001766, 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 16 Jun 2015.
