Trial summary

Besides causing weight loss Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has profound effect on glucose metabolism leading to remission of type 2 diabetes early after surgery. However the mechanisms for this improvement remain uncertain. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Study population: Morbid obese patients who are already enrolled for Roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery will be invited to participate (investigators do not assign patients to the surgery). 8 with type 2 diabetes, 8 with impaired glucose tolerance and 8 with normal glucose tolerance. Glucose tolerance will be assessed with an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) prior to surgery and prior to the other tests. Plasma glucose 120 minutes after OGTT will define glucose tolerance. Normal: < 7,8 mM. Impaired: 7,8 - 11,1 mM. Diabetic: >11,1 mM. Subjects are recruited from the outpatient clinic of endocrinology and gastrosurgical clinic at Hvidovre University Hospital.

Who may be able to join

  • patients eligible for RYGB, Age 18-60 years, BMI 35-60 kg/m2 at time of referral to operation, blood pressure <145/85, C-peptid>700 pmol/l.

Who cannot join

  • Obesity caused by medical treatment for psychiatric disease. Mental retardation. Alcohol or drug abuse. Severe cardiopulmonary disease. History of peritonitis, ventricular disease, upper gastrointestinal surgery, recurrent oesophagitis or severe complications to general anesthesia. Bad compliance. Treatment with thyroid hormones or antithyroid treatment. Treatment with anorectic medicine later than 3 months prior to surgery. Furthermore prior to surgery each patient has to loose 8 % of bodyweight to reduce the risk of operative complications.
  • Before each test day all glucose lowering medication will be paused for an appropriate amount of time depending on the type of medicine.

About this study

Besides causing weight loss Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has profound effect on glucose metabolism leading to remission of type 2 diabetes early after surgery. However the mechanisms for this improvement remain uncertain. The aim of this study is to investigate the changes in insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function 1 week and 3 months following RYGB using oral and intravenous test.

Read the detailed description

Investigators plan to study 24 obese patients already enrolled for Roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB). 8 with type 2 diabetes (DM2), 8 with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and 8 with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) before, within the first week and 3 month after RYGB using a liquid mixed meal test (MMT) and an insulin modified frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (IM-FSIGT). Furthermore, an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) will be performed before and after 3 months. Blood will be sampled in fasting and during the tests measuring plasma glucose, insulin and C-peptid (OGTT, MMT and IM-FSIGT) and GLP-1, glucagon, GIP and GLP-2 (MMT). Beta-cell function will be assessed from the MMT (insulinogenic index - IGI), OGTT (IGI) and the IM-FSIGT (Acute insulin response, AIR) in order to examine whether changes in beta-cell function after RYGB depend on an oral stimulus. Insulin sensitivity will be assessed in fasting (HOMA-IR), during the IM-FSIGT (minimal model: Si) and from MMT/OGTT (Matsuda index). Insulin clearance/hepatic extraction of insulin will be assessed in fasting and during the intravenous and oral test.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01993511
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
RYGB patients with type 2 diabetesPreoperative oral glucose tolerance test with 2 h P-glucose >11.1 mmol/L
RYGB patients with IGTPreoperative oral glucose tolerance test with 2 h p-glucose >7.8 and <11.1 mmol/L
RYGB patients with NGTPreoperative oral glucose tolerance test with 2 h p-Glucose <7.8 mmol/L

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in beta-cell function after RYGB.

    Beta-cell function will be assessed with both intravenous tests (acute insulin response to glucose - AIRg) and oral tests (insulinogenic index - IGI).

    Measured: 1 week and 3 months.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in insulin sensitivity after RYGB.

    Insulin sensitivity will be assessed in fasting and by intravenous tests (sensitivity index - Si) and oral tests (Matsuda index).

    Measured: 1 week and 3 months.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Anna Kirstine Bojsen-Møller, MD (+45 30 25 22 06, kirstine.bojsen-moeller@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in beta-cell function after RYGB. (time frame: 1 week and 3 months.). 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 NCT01993511, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 25 Nov 2013.
