About this study

The overall aim of the application is to determine the contribution of the elevated incretin hormone concentrations seen after certain types of bariatric surgery to the regulation of food intake and satiety.

Read the detailed description

Both Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) increase GLP-1 concentrations, although this is of lesser magnitude in SG compared to RYGB. Data suggests that endogenous GLP-1 is at least partially responsible for reducing free-choice caloric intake after RYGB, providing a mechanism underlying differences between procedures. Inhibition of GLP-1 action with Exendin-9,39 after RYGB accelerates gastric emptying. These observations suggest that factors other than anatomy regulate the upper gastrointestinal response to food ingestion. It is therefore reasonable to consider that the postprandial rise in GLP-1 might affect feeding behavior after RYGB, and to a lesser extent SG, where the increase in GLP-1 is less marked.

What participants receive

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

  • SalineDrug

    Subjects will be studied on 2 occasions, in random order. During the saline study they will be infused with saline.

  • Exendin-9,39Drug

    Subjects will be studied on 2 occasions, in random order. During the Exendin-9,39 study day they will be infused with Exendin-9,39. Exendin-9,39 blocks the actions of specific hormones called incretins, that are produced in the gut in health and in larger quantities after gastric bypass surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Caloric Intake

    caloric intake from a free choice buffet within 5 hours after ingestion of a standard meal

    Measured: 5 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Gastrointestinal Transit Measured Using Scintigraphy

    Time taken to empty 50% of stomach contents (GE50) measured using scintigraphy over the 4 hours after ingestion of a labeled meal

    Measured: 4 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Saline and Exendin-9,39 in people with Obesity, run by Mayo Clinic 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?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 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 1 May 2020. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 May 2020). 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?

Caloric Intake (time frame: 5 hours). 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 NCT02779075, 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 1 May 2020.
