Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors reduce hyperglycemia and improve peripheral insulin sensitivity by ameliorating glucotoxicity. Insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation. Thus strategies to improve insulin sensitivity and lower glucotoxicity may improve endothelial inflammation and vascular inflammation. However, the effects of these agents on vascular inflammation and endothelial function is not known in patients with type 2 diabetes although anti-inflammatory properties have been demonstrated in various animal models. In the present study the investigators will assess if dapagliflozin treatment for 12 weeks decreases monocyte inflammation and improves endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes on metformin monotherapy.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

United States
  • Baylor College of Medicine

    Houston, Texas, United States

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
