Diabetes trial

June 16, 2010

AUSTRALIANS with Type 2 diabetes are being invited to take part in a large global trial of a potential new “breakthrough treatment” for the condition. The trial, known as Study D19, will look at the new treatment which, unlike current Type 2 diabetes medications, may also help patients manage their weight and reduce blood pressure. People aged over 45 are being sought to take part, which involves a so-called SGLT2 inhibitor, with nine sites across NSW, Victoria, Queensland and South Australia actively recruiting participants. The trial is being conducted on behalf of AstraZeneca; more information on 1800 218 272.
