About this study

Official title: Effects of DPP-4 Inhibitor Therapy on Renal Sodium Handling and Renal Hemodynamics in Type 2 Diabetes Patients. The INDORSE Study: Inhibition of Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV: Outcomes on Renal Sodium Excretion

Background: Dedicated renal hemodynamic and renal function studies are lacking for DPP-4 inhibitors in patients with Type 2 diabetes; accordingly little is known regarding the mechanisms mediating the renal effects of DPP-4 inhibitors in humans.

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of DPP-4 inhibition acutely (single dose) and following short-term therapy (28 days) on renal sodium handling and renal hemodynamics and function in patients with type 2 diabetes and systolic hypertension.

Read more

Design: double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, Phase IV.

Patient population: 32 patients with Type 2 diabetes, HbA1c (6.5%-9%), with systolic blood pressure ranging from 120-160 mmHg.

Intervention: subjects will be randomized (1:1) to either sitagliptin (100 mg daily) or to placebo (1 tablet daily) for 28 days.

Endpoints: Fractional excretion of sodium, renal function, and renal hemodynamics.

Read the detailed description

Background: DPP-4 inhibition improves glycemic control, modestly reduces blood pressure and may also reduce albuminuria in patients with Type 2 diabetes; effects which occur without significantly modifying heart rate or body weight. While preclinical studies have demonstrated that DPP-4 inhibition acutely increases urinary sodium excretion in addition to other favorable renal effects (anti-inflammatory, anti-proteinuric), few studies have examined the renal effects of DPP-4 inhibition either acutely or following short-term therapy in humans with type 2 diabetes. Considering the world-wide prevalence of Type 2 diabetes and the increasing use of DPP-4 inhibitors amongst patients, it is important to ascertain potential non-glycemic effects of DPP-4 inhibitors including those within the kidney.

Study Objectives: To determine effect(s) of DPP-4 inhibition on tubular sodium handling, renal hemodynamics, and renal function.

Study Design: double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, Phase IV.

Study Patients: 32 patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Systolic Hypertension (SBP 120-160 mmHg).

Endpoints: Fractional excretion of sodium, renal function (measured GFR), renal hemodynamics (effective renal plasma flow, filtration fraction, renal blood flow, renal vascular resistance), systemic hemodynamics (non-invasive cardiac monitoring), plasma neurohormones, urinary vasoactive mediators, markers of free radical stress.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)

    Measured: 3 Hrs post-administration after 1 month and after 1 dose

  2. Change in Fractional Excretion of Lithium (FELi)

    FELi at 3 Hr post-study drug administration after 1 month compared to FELI at 3hrs post-study drug administration after 1 dose, sitagliptin vs. placebo

    Measured: 3 Hrs post-administration after 1 month and after 1 dose

  3. Change From Baseline in SDF-1alpha^1-67 (Intact) Measured by Immunoaffinity and Tandem Mass Spectrometry

    Plasma concentration of SDF-1alpha^1-67 (intact) measured by quantitative mass spectrometry methods after antibody-based affinity enrichment, sitagliptin vs. placebo

    Measured: 3 Hr vs. baseline after 1 dose

  4. Change From Baseline in SDF-1alpha^3-67 (Truncated) Measured by Tandem Mass Spectrometry With Antibody-based Affinity Enrichment

    Plasma concentration of SDF-1alpha^3-67 (intact) measured by quantitative mass spectrometry methods after antibody-based affinity enrichment, sitagliptin vs. placebo

    Measured: 3Hrs vs baseline after 1 dose

  5. Change in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Non-invasive Cardiac Output Monitoring

    SBP by Non-Invasive cardiac output monitoring at 3Hrs post- study drug administration after 1 month compared to SBP by Non-invasive cardiac output monitoring at 3Hrs after 1 dose, sitagliptin vs placebo

    Measured: 3 Hrs post-administration after 1 month and after 1 dose

  6. Change in Effective Renal Plasma Flow (ERPF)

    ERPF (para-aminohippurate clearance) 3Hrs post-study drug administration after 1 month compared to ERPF at 3Hhrs post-study drug administration after 1 dose, sitagliptin vs placebo

    Measured: 3 Hrs post-administration after 1 month and after 1 dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sitaglitpin in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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 5 Apr 2018. 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 Canada. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 5 Apr 2018). 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?

Percent Change in Fractional Excretion of Sodium (FENA) (time frame: 3 Hrs post-administration after 1 month and after 1 dose). 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 NCT02406443, 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 5 Apr 2018.
