Efficacy and Safety of EGT0001442 in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
- Registration Number
- NCT01377844
- Lead Sponsor
- Theracos
- Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of EGT0001442 in lowering glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c, A laboratory test to diagnose three months average of blood sugar)levels at 24th week from baseline, when compared to placebo group(no diabetic medication given). The secondary aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of EGT0001442 in lowering fasting blood glucose at the weeks 2 and 24 and comparing the results with placebo group. This study assess the efficacy of EGT0001442 based on the proportion of subjects who reach the American Diabetes Association (ADA) target of HbA1c of \< 7% in EGT0001442 group and comparison with placebo. The study also evaluates the effect of EGT0001442 on systolic, diastolic pressures, body weight and compare with the respective placebo groups.This study also assess the change from baseline in HbA1c overtime, from week 1 to week 96. Finally, to assess the safety of EGT0001442 in the Type 2 Diabetic patients (adult/maturity onset).
- Detailed Description
EGT0001442 is a compound that may inhibit the effect of other compounds in the body known as sugar transporters. The use of EGT0001442 may enhance the elimination of glucose from the blood by increasing the amount of urine produced. Hence the blood glucose levels are significantly decreased and the efficacy of EGT001442 can be established by assessing the three months average blood glucose levels (HbA1c). Due to the increased urinary output, the effect of EGT001442 on blood pressure levels are also assessed.
