NCT05422092

Brief Summary

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is always accompanied with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).This prospective, randomized controlled intervention study was designed to reveal the potential clinical application and underlying mechanisms of canagliflozin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes combined with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

    Baseline

Study Arms (2)

Canagliflozin treatment group

EXPERIMENTAL

Canagliflozin 100mg were given to the patients for 24 weeks

Drug: Canagliflozin

Pioglitazone treatment group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Pioglitazone 30mg were given to the patients and the dosage will be increased to 45mg 2 weeks later

Drug: Pioglitazone

Interventions

40 patients with T2DM combined with NAFLD, who have poor glycemic control response to metformin monotherapy, will be randomly assigned to receive canagliflozin on top of metformin as experimental group.

Also known as: Canagliflozin tablets
Canagliflozin treatment group

40 patients with T2DM combined with NAFLD, who have poor glycemic control response to metformin monotherapy, will be randomly assigned to receive pioglitazone 45mg on top of metformin as placebo comparator group.
