Compare the Effect of DPP-IV Inhibitor or TZD on Glycemic Variability and Oxidative Stress in Patient With 2 Diabetes

May 5, 2011 updated by: Korea University Anam Hospital

An Open-label, Randomized, Active-controlled Study to Compare the Effect of DPP-IV Inhibitor and TZD as add-on Therapy to Metformin on Glycemic Variability and Oxidative Stress in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Monotherapy

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of vildagliptin vs. pioglitazone to oxidative stress on daily blood glucose fluctuations, in patients with type 2 diabetes that was inadequately controlled by metformin.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Activation of oxidative stress by glucose fluctuations plays a major role in the pathogenesis of diabetic complication. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), such as vildagliptin, enhances glucose-induced insulin secretion, decreases glucagon secretion, and reduces postprandial hyperglycemia and may also improve acute fluctuations of glucose. We believe that vildagliptin may exert an effect of decreasing oxidative stress by reducing glucose excursion.
