Relative Effects of Physical Exercise Versus Rosiglitazone on Endothelial Function in Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Patients With Impaired Fasting Glucose or Impaired Glucose Tolerance
Information source: University of Leipzig
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on June 20, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Impaired Glucose Tolerance
Intervention: rosiglitazone (Drug); physical exercise (Behavioral); control (Other)
Phase: Phase 4
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: University of Leipzig
Summary
The aim of this study is to prospectively assess the relative benefits of either treatment
with rosiglitazone or physical exercise on endothelial function in patients with impaired
fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance and coronary artery disease (CAD).
