Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, self-controlled study to evaluate the effects of endovascular denervation (EDN) on insulin secretory function and insulin sensitivity in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) .

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Endovascular Denervation System (Netrod)
N/A

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, self-controlled study. Patients with diagnosed T2DM and poor glycemic control (i.e.. glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) between 7.5% and 10.5% despite one to three oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD) and/or insulin on the basis of metformin. All included subjects will accept EDN treatment and were followed up at 7, 30 days and 3, 6, 12 months. The primary objectives were evaluate the effects of EDN on insulin secretory function and insulin sensitivity in the treatment of T2DM.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: The endovascular denervation (EDN) group

Receive endovascular denervation (EDN) treatment

Device: Endovascular Denervation System (Netrod)
The Netrod system is a percutaneous, catheter- based device which uses radiofrequency energy to denervate the sympathetic nerves surrounding the arteries
