Trial summary

To examine pancreatic islet function and incretin function during intravenous and oral stimulation >2 years after gastric bypass surgery in patients with normal glucose tolerance. We hypothesize that islet cell and incretin function is enhanced in response to oral, but not intravenous, stimulation - i.e. Read more about this study

About this study

To examine pancreatic islet function and incretin function during intravenous and oral stimulation >2 years after gastric bypass surgery in patients with normal glucose tolerance. We hypothesize that islet cell and incretin function is enhanced in response to oral, but not intravenous, stimulation - i.e. incretin released from the gut in response to oral stimulation play a key role for the enhanced islet function after gastric bypass surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in islet cell function from baseline (preoperatively)

    Change in insulin and glucagon secretion during oral and intravenous stimulation after gastric bypass

    Measured: >24 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in glucose tolerance during oral glucose tolerance test

    Fasting, peak and nadir glucose during oral glucose tolerance test

    Measured: >24 months

  2. Arterio-venous glucose difference during oral glucose tolerance test after gastric bypass

    Differences in arterial and venous plasma glucose during oral glucose stimulation

    Measured: >24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obesity, 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 7 Apr 2015. 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?

Change in islet cell function from baseline (preoperatively) (time frame: >24 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 NCT02161666, 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 7 Apr 2015.
