About this study

Official title: Four Weeks of Near Normalisation of Blood Glucose Improves the Insulin Response to GLP-1 and GIP in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The incretin effect is attenuated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus partly due to impaired potentiation of beta-cell responsiveness to glucose by glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 respectively. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether 4 weeks of near-normalization of blood glucose could improve the insulin responses to GIP and GLP-1 in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Being tested
glucagon-like peptide-1,, glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, Saline
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing glucagon-like peptide-1,, glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and Saline in people with Type 2 Diabetes, 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

2.phase insulin response measured as incremental area under the curve from 10-120 minutes (time frame: 2 hours). 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 NCT00612950, 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.
