Diabetes Prevention Program Pilot Study (DPP)

This study has been completed.
Sponsor:
Information provided by (Responsible Party):
Geoffrey Williams, University of Rochester
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:
NCT00729079
First received: August 1, 2008
Last updated: October 8, 2015
Last verified: March 2013
History of Changes
  Purpose
This pilot study is intended to demonstrate that we can actually deliver the Diabetes Prevention Program intervention well and to show that it is likely effective. We will use results from this pilot study to support our application to The National Institute of Health. NIH is asking for health care centers to show ways to provide this treatment at a reasonable cost. We propose to demonstrate successful and sustainable use DPP's lifestyle intervention in a primary care health care setting (University of Rochester Primary Care).

Condition Intervention
Diabetes Prevention
 Behavioral: DPP

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Prevention
Official Title: Virtual Translation of Diabetes Prevention to Primary Care: A Pilot Study

  • Systolic blood pressure> 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure> 105 mmHg
  • Cancer requiring treatment in the past 5 years, unless the prognosis is considered good
  • Renal disease (creatinine GFR < or = 30 ml/hr or > 2.0 mg/dl if GFR not available).
