What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests ASC30 tablets to evaluate their effectiveness and safety for people with Type 2 Diabetes. Participants will receive varying doses of ASC30 tablets or a placebo (a pill with no active medicine) once daily. Eligible participants must have Type 2 Diabetes, a stable body weight, and a BMI of at least 23. This trial excludes individuals with Type 1 Diabetes, severe low blood sugar episodes, or uncontrolled high blood pressure. As a Phase 2 trial, the research measures the treatment's effectiveness in an initial, smaller group, allowing participants to contribute to important diabetes research.

Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?

Research shows that ASC30 tablets are being tested for safety in people with Type 2 Diabetes. Earlier studies examined how well participants tolerated these tablets. So far, results indicate that most people tolerate the treatment well. These studies have reported no major safety problems, and participants have not experienced significant side effects.

ASC30 tablets are easy to use, taken once a day by mouth. While detailed safety information is still being collected, these ongoing tests are crucial to ensure the tablets are safe and effective. Joining a trial will help gather more information about its safety.12345

Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for Type 2 Diabetes?

Researchers are excited about ASC30 tablets for Type 2 Diabetes because they promise a novel approach compared to existing treatments. Most current diabetes medications, like metformin and sulfonylureas, work by increasing insulin sensitivity or production. ASC30, however, targets a different pathway that could improve glucose control in a new way. Additionally, the tablets are designed to be taken orally once daily, which is convenient and could improve patient adherence. This unique mechanism and ease of use give ASC30 the potential to offer better blood sugar management for people with Type 2 Diabetes.

What evidence suggests that ASC30 tablets could be an effective treatment for Type 2 Diabetes?

Research has shown that ASC30 tablets might benefit people with Type 2 diabetes. In earlier studies, patients who took ASC30 once daily lost a noticeable amount of weight. On average, they lost up to 6.5% more weight than those who took a placebo, and this occurred in just 28 days. Another study found that different doses of ASC30 led to weight losses of 5.4%, 7.0%, and 7.7%. These results suggest that ASC30 could aid in weight management, which is important for controlling Type 2 diabetes. While these studies mainly focus on weight loss, they offer hope for other benefits ASC30 might provide in treating Type 2 diabetes.35678
