Study to Assess the Effects of Deglusterol on Fasting Glucose and Other Cardiometabolic Risk Factors.

Phase 3

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Hyperglycemia, unspecified,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2023/01/048723
• Lead Sponsor: Caregen Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

The clinicaltrial is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel,multi-center study. A total of 70 male and female subjects, diagnosed withprediabetes (ages 20 to 75 years, inclusive), will be enrolled.

 On the first dayof the 4-week screening period3 (Day -28), subjects will be screened according tothe study inclusion and exclusion criteria. Male subjects can be screenedwithin 4 weeks prior to randomization (Day 0). Subjects meeting all theinclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be invited toparticipate in the study. Subjects who provide written informed consent toparticipate in the study will be randomized either to the Deglusterol group orthe placebo group in a 1:1 ratio. Each group will consist of 35 subjects.

 On the day ofrandomization (Day 0), blood samples for the assessment of primary and secondaryoutcomes will be collected (i.e., as baseline measures) and an OGTT will be conducted.Subjects will be asked to return 2 and 4 weeks after the baseline visit.Therefore, each subject will be required to make a total of 4 visits to theclinical research site (i.e., Days -28, 0, 14, and 28).

 The study willcommence only after obtaining written approval from the site InstitutionalEthics Committee.
