About this study

Official title: Near Normalisation of Blood Glucose Improves the Potentiating Effect of GLP-1 on Glucose Induced Insulin Secretion in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The ability of glucagon-like peptide 1 to enhance beta-cell responsiveness to I.v. glucose is impaired in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared with healthy individuals. We investigated whether 4 weeks of near-normalisation og blood glucose improves the potentiation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by GLP-1

Being tested
glucagon-like peptide-1, Saline
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • glucagon-like peptide-1Drug

    continuous infusion of GLP-1 (1½ pmol/kg/min)

  • SalineDrug

    continuous infusion of saline

Receives: Drug: Saline

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. insulin secretion rate (ISR) were derived by deconvolution of c-peptide. ISR is expressed as pmol/kg/min

    Measured: 180 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The calculated ISR values was plotted against the ambient plasma glucose. The slopes of this linear relationships were calculated by cross-correlation analysis and is and estimation of beta-cell responsiveness (pmol/kg/min)/mmol/l

    Measured: 180 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing glucagon-like peptide-1 and Saline in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, run by Hvidovre University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

insulin secretion rate (ISR) were derived by deconvolution of c-peptide. ISR is expressed as pmol/kg/min (time frame: 180 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00612625, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2008.
