Lead Sponsor:

Tokyo University

Conditions:

Diabetes Mellitus

Glucose Intolerance

Eligibility:

All Genders

30-74 years

Phase:

PHASE4

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of pitavastatin for preventing diabetes in a population with impaired glucose tolerance.

Detailed Description

Diabetes mellitus and its complications are major health problems globally. People with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) are at high risk of developing diabetes. It is therefore important to focus on ...
