About this study

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of GLP-1 and other gut-secreted hormones (glucagon, GIP, grelin and PYY) on food-intake, appetite and glucose metabolism after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.

Read the detailed description

To do this the effect of combined GLP-1 receptor blockade by Exendin 9-39 and DPP-4-inhibition will be evaluated.

Conditions

What is being measured

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

  1. Ad libitum food intake (changes in food intake)

    Evaluated by changes in food intake between the placebo day and the day with both administration of exendin 9-39 and DPP 4 Inhibitor

    Measured: 3-12 month after RYGB

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Glucose metabolism (iAUC of glucose and c-pep after a meal)

    Evaluated by iAUC of glucose and c-pep after a meal

    Measured: 3-12 month after RYGB

  2. Gut-derived hormone profiles (iAUC of GLP-1, PYY, GIP and glucagon after a meal)

    Evaluated by iAUC of GLP-1, PYY, GIP and glucagon after a meal

    Measured: 3-12 month after RYGB

  3. Appetite measurement (VAS-scores)

    Evaluated by VAS-scores

    Measured: 3-12 month after RYGB

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exendin 9-39 and sitagliptin in people with Severe 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 21 Jun 2016. 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?

Ad libitum food intake (changes in food intake) (time frame: 3-12 month after RYGB). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 21 Jun 2016.
