Trial summary

Exenatide has been shown to result in better glycemic control in type II diabetes patients. Obesity and diabetes are states of increased inflammation; exenatide is expected to lead to decreased inflammation by virtue of better glycemic control and weight loss. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Exenatide on Insulin Requirement, Weight and Inflammation in Obese Type 2 Diabetic Subjects on Insulin

Exenatide has been shown to result in better glycemic control in type II diabetes patients. Obesity and diabetes are states of increased inflammation; exenatide is expected to lead to decreased inflammation by virtue of better glycemic control and weight loss.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of Exenatide to diabetic patients will reduce the requirements of insulin particularly the short acting insulin. Exenatide may also lead to decreased inflammation by virtue of better glycemic control and weight loss, or an independent effect.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fasting Insulin

    To compare the fasting insulin level at the end of 12 weeks in patients on exenatide subcutaneously twice daily (5 or 10 mcg/injection) as compared to controls in insulin treated obese type 2 diabetic patients.

    Measured: after 24 hours fast at baseline and 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Weight

    To compare the body weight at the end of 12 weeks in patients on exenatide subcutaneously twice daily (5 or 10 mcg/injection) as compared to controls in insulin treated obese type 2 diabetic patients

    Measured: value at 12 weeks minus value at baseline

  2. HbA1c

    To compare the HbA1c at the end of 12 weeks in patients on exenatide subcutaneously twice daily (5 or 10 mcg/injection) as compared to controls in insulin treated obese type 2 diabetic patients.

    Measured: value at 12 weeks minus value at baseline

  3. Intranuclear NFκB Binding Activity

    Measured by a gel shift assay showing the NFKB and Oct-1 binding to the doublestranded oligonucleotide containing the NFKB DNA binding site in Exenatide group and placebo group

    Measured: measured after 6 hours of a single dose of placebo or exenatide treatment for value measured at 12 weeks minus baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing exenatide 5 mcg and exenatide 10 mcg in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University at Buffalo at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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 6 Oct 2022. 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Oct 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Fasting Insulin (time frame: after 24 hours fast at baseline and 12 weeks). 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 NCT01154933, 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 6 Oct 2022.
