Trial summary

Some of the fat (triglyceride) from the food humans eat gets stored in the bowel. This triglyceride can then be released into the blood when another meal is consumed or in response to hormones. How the gut hormone glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) and glucose release the triglyceride from the gut is not known. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Investigating the Plasma Lipoprotein Response to a Single Subcutaneous Injection of Analogue Glucagon-like Peptide-2 and Oral Glucose in Humans

Some of the fat (triglyceride) from the food humans eat gets stored in the bowel. This triglyceride can then be released into the blood when another meal is consumed or in response to hormones. How the gut hormone glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) and glucose release the triglyceride from the gut is not known. The research team in this study is interested in finding out how teduglutide (a degradation resistant form of GLP-2) ang glucose, given together, release stored triglyceride from the gut by evaluating how blood lipoproteins respond to teduglutide in healthy individuals.

Read the detailed description

The lipoprotein response will be performed in 15 healthy individuals recruited by newspaper advertisements. A member of the study team will explain the study in detail on visit 1, and if the individual is interested in participating, informed consent will be obtained and preliminary screening will occur. On visit 2 participants will receive a high fat liquid meal after an overnight fast. Hourly blood samples will be taken for 5 hours, followed by a subcutaneous teduglutide injection and simultaneous glucose drink. Following the injection and drink, blood samples will be taken every 15 minutes for the first hour and every 30 minutes for the subsequent 3 hours.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing TED + glucose in people with Hyperlipidemias, 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 2 inclusion and 13 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 29 Apr 2021. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Brenda Hughes, RN (416-340-4800 ext. 8886, brenda.hughes@uhn.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lipoprotein response to teduglutide and glucose (time frame: 8 hours). 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 29 Apr 2021.
