Trial summary

Multiple studies have examined the effect of endogenous GLP-1 secretions by using a competitive antagonist of GLP-1 - Exendin-9,39 - infused at rates of 300pmol/kg/min. However, the presence of an effect does not necessarily imply that this effect is due to the blockade of the endogenous GLP-1 actions at the receptor. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Dose-response Study of the Effects of Exendin-9,39 on Glucose Metabolism, Glucagon and Insulin Secretion and on Insulin Action.

Multiple studies have examined the effect of endogenous GLP-1 secretions by using a competitive antagonist of GLP-1 - Exendin-9,39 - infused at rates of 300pmol/kg/min. However, the presence of an effect does not necessarily imply that this effect is due to the blockade of the endogenous GLP-1 actions at the receptor. It is possible that the supraphysiologic concentrations of Exendin may have effects of its own. To examine the effect of Exendin on glucose metabolism the investigators propose a dose-response study to determine whether the compound has effects in a dose-dependent fashion.

Being tested
saline infusion, GLP-1-9,36 infusion, Exendin-9,39 at low dose, Exendin-9,39 at high dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing saline infusion, GLP-1-9,36 infusion and Exendin-9,39 at low dose in people with Pancreatic Effects of 9,39-Exendin and 9,36-GLP-1, run by Adrian Vella 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?

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 23 Jan 2013. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

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 (time frame: over 360 minutes of study). 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 NCT01218633, 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 23 Jan 2013.
