Trial summary

Progression of T2DM is widely accepted to be contributed by two main components: beta cell function deterioration where insulin secretion is impaired and insulin resistance where insulin physiological response is reduced. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Cross-Sectional Study on Association Between the Estimation of Insulin Resistance and Beta Cell Function Through Homeostasis Model Assessment With HbA1C Among Oral Anti-Diabetics Treatment Non-Responders

Progression of T2DM is widely accepted to be contributed by two main components: beta cell function deterioration where insulin secretion is impaired and insulin resistance where insulin physiological response is reduced. Insulin resistance and beta cell function will be estimated through a mathematical model, homeostasis model assessment. Fasting insulin and C-peptide will be measured using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Insulin resistance and beta cell function is then compared with the glycaemic control, HbA1C.

Read the detailed description

Primary objective

  • To investigate the association between the estimation of insulin resistance and beta cell function through homeostasis model assessment with HbA1C among oral anti-diabetics treatment non-responder.

Secondary Objectives

  • To compare the insulin resistance and beta cell function between the OAD treatment responders (negative control) and non-responders
  • To investigate the relationship between plasma level of metformin and gliclazide with the estimation of beta cell function and insulin resistance
  • To identify the proportion of patients with high insulin resistance and proportion of patients with low beta cell function
  • To identify difference in insulin resistance and beta cell function of different ethnic groups in Sarawak
  • To compare insulin resistance with cardiovascular disease risk using Framingham Risk Score and ASCVD risk estimation
Being tested
Fasting insulin level, Plasma drug level

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Fasting insulin levelDiagnostic test

    Fasting insulin and C-peptide level measured using LCMS which is then used to calculate the insulin resistance and beta cell function using homeostasis model assessment

  • Plasma drug levelDiagnostic test

    Plasma trough level of metformin and gliclazide will be measured using LCMS to ensure true compliance.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Clinical Research Centre, Malaysia at 1 site in Malaysia.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2018. 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 Malaysia. 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?

HOMA estimation of insulin resistance and beta cell function (time frame: 1 day). 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?
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 19 Jul 2018.
