Diabetes Prevention Program Clinical Trials Information presented on Clinical Trials Search isn't designed to be a substitute for certified healthcare advice, travels to or professional assistance using a genuine medical doctor. We are not physicians. Always confer with your dr. about Diabetes Prevention Program conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site devoted to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Diabetes Prevention Program Clinical research trials and Diabetes Prevention Program medical trials happen in hundreds of places across the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials usually measure the effectualness of new drugs. The intention of the studies / undertakings is to solve certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for mDs, government agencies, and private sector companies to locate treatments for all forms of circumstances, such as Diabetes Prevention Program. Diabetes Prevention Program Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow for volunteers to undergo medical treatment choices before they are available to the general public. Some times the human subjects get treatment for free of charge, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Diabetes Prevention Program clinical trial. Participants frequently get the best healthcare available for their Diabetes Prevention Program condition. Risks are a reality, nonetheless, and can include extra or frequent physician trips, medical risks (possibly life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being ineffective. Trials are federally governed with exacting guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

Diabetes Prevention Program
For Condition: Glucose Intolerance,Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
Status: Completed
Sponsor(s): National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) , National Institute on Aging (NIA),National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD),National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NCMHD),Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH)
Synopsis: The Diabetes Prevention Program is a nationwide clinical study to answer the question: Can Type 2 diabetes (also called noninsulin-dependent or adult-onset diabetes) be prevented or delayed? The study has recruited 3819 volunteers, who are at high risk of developing diabetes, at twenty-five medical centers in the United States. It is sponsored by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases of the National Institutes of Health, and other Institute and corporate sponsors. Researchers will evaluate the efficacy of a lifestyle intervention and a pharmacological intervention in preventing or delaying Type 2 diabetes in persons with IGT, impaired glucose tolerance. Each person in the study will be followed for 3 to 6 years.
