About this study

Official title: Effects of Fat Metabolites on Gut Hormone Secretion After Gastric Bypass Surgery

To investigate the effects of different fat metabolites on gut hormone secretion in gastric bypass operated subjects and BMI-matched controls.

Read the detailed description

Dietary triglycerides are hydrolyzed during digestion to two fatty acids and one 2-monoacyl glycerol. The study will investigate the effects of these different fat components on gut hormone secretion in gastric bypass operated patients and non-operated BMI-matched controls.

Being tested
C-8 dietary oil, Tricaprylin, Olive oil
Medical subject headings
Overweight, Obesity, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Within group difference in glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal).

    Comparison of the GLP-1 responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) induced by the different oils.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  3. Between group comparison of CCK secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal).

    GIP secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal) in gastric bypass operated patients compared to BMI-matched control subjects for each of the oils.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  4. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of insulin within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  5. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of C-peptide within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  6. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of peptide YY (PYY) within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  7. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of oxyntomodulin within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  8. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of glucagon within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  9. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of bile acids within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  10. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF-19) within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  11. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of lipid metabolites (triglyceride, cholesterol, fatty acids) within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  12. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of neurotensin within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  13. Responses (evaluated by AUC above basal) of glucose within and between groups.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  14. Between group comparison of differences in GLP-1 secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal).

    Differences in GLP-1 secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal) induced by the different oils in gastric bypass operated patients compared with differences in BMI-matched control subjects.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  15. Between group comparison of differences in GIP secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal).

    Differences in GIP secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal) induced by the different oils in gastric bypass operated patients compared with differences in BMI-matched control subjects.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

  16. Between group comparison of differences in CCK secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal).

    Differences in CCK secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal) induced by the different oils in gastric bypass operated patients compared with differences in BMI-matched control subjects.

    Measured: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing C-8 dietary oil, Tricaprylin and Olive oil in people with Overweight and Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes, 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 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2017. 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?

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Sten Madsbad, Professor (+4538623032, sten.madsbad@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Within group difference in glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion (evaluated by AUC above basal). (time frame: 0-240 min following fat ingestion.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03223389, 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 26 Jul 2017.
