A Study to Compare Insulin Pump With Conventional Treatment in Type 2 Diabetes

Not Applicable
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: conventional treatment
Device: insulin pump
Registration Number
NCT02198846
Lead Sponsor
Konkuk University Medical Center
Brief Summary

Insulin deficiency resulted from progressive beta cell failure and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes requires exogenous insulin therapy, escaping from oral antihyperglycemic agents. Previous data have been suggested that continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) does not only have efficacy in glucose control but also restore beta cell failure.

The investigators plan to compare the efficacy/safety and beta cell function between insulin pump treatment and the intensification of conventional treatment in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.
