About this study

Official title: Role of Hyperinsulinemia in NAFLD: Dexamethasone-Pancreatic Clamp Pilot & Feasibility Study

This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled (crossover) clinical study designed to investigate the specific dose-response impact of insulin infusion rate (IIR) on blood glucose levels during a pancreatic clamp study in the setting of dexamethasone-induced insulin resistance. The investigators will recruit participants with a history of overweight/obesity but no history of prediabetes or diabetes. Participants will be rendered temporarily insulin resistant by taking seven doses of dexamethasone. They will then undergo two pancreatic clamp procedures in which individualized basal IIR are identified, followed in one by maintenance of basal IIR (maintenance hyperinsulinemia, MH) and in the other by a stepped decline in IIR (reduction toward euinsulinemia, RE). In both clamps the investigators will closely monitor plasma glucose and various metabolic parameters. The primary outcome will be the absolute and relative changes in steady-state plasma glucose levels at each stepped decline in IIR.

Read the detailed description

Although high blood sugar and risk of heart disease are the most well-known health effects of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), in which too much fat accumulates in the liver, has come to be recognized as another important complication. Unchecked, NAFLD can progress to severe liver inflammation, liver failure, and even liver cancer. The investigators suspect that high levels of the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin leads to excessive fat production by the liver, and so lowering insulin levels might help to improve NAFLD. In order to answer this question, the investigators will temporarily render volunteers insulin resistant -- that is, simulating the risk of T2DM and NAFLD -- using seven doses of dexamethasone. They will then perform a "pancreatic clamp" - a procedure in which the body's production of insulin is temporarily shut off and then replaced at the same or lower levels. Again, the investigators expect that lowering insulin levels will lower fat production. Because this is a new research approach, the investigators first need to understand how lowering insulin levels affects blood sugar. Research participants in this pilot study will therefore undergo two pancreatic clamps, each following seven doses of dexamethasone, in random order: one roughly maintaining their own internal ("basal") insulin level and one in which the investigators lower that basal insulin level by 10%, 20%, and 40%. In each case, the investigators will observe the absolute and relative changes in blood sugar and the levels of certain fats as the investigators change the insulin level. Once the investigators have found a lower insulin level that they can safely maintain, the investigators will go on to study its effect on fat production in a later study.

Study groups in NCT06126354
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Maintenance hyperinsulinemia (MH) protocolActive comparatorThe basal insulin infusion rate (IIR) necessary to maintain participants' mean basal fasting plasma glucose (mbFPG) will be determined during the basal titration period. Then, during the intervention period, the IIR will remain at 100% of basal for the full duration (225 min). The IIR and resulting insulin levels are expected to be relatively high (cf. hyperinsulinemia) because of dexamethasone-induced insulin resistance.
Receives: Drug: Insulin human; Drug: Octreotide Acetate; Drug: Glucagon; Drug: Human Growth Hormone; Drug: Dexamethasone Oral; Other: [6,6-2H2] D-glucose; Drug: 20% D-glucose (aq); Dietary Supplement: BOOST Plus; Device: Harvard Apparatus PHD ULTRA CP syringe pump; Device: Yellow Springs Instruments (YSI) 2500 Biochemistry Glucose/Lactate Analyzer; Other: Normal saline; Other: Human albumin
Reduction toward euinsulinemia (RE) protocolExperimentalThe basal insulin infusion rate (IIR) necessary to maintain participants' mean basal fasting plasma glucose (mbFPG) will be determined during the basal titration period. Then, during the intervention period, the IIR will be reduced progressively, at 75-min intervals, to 90%, 75%, and 60% of basal IIR. Thus, the basal hyperinsulinemia expected due to underlying insulin resistance will be reduced toward euinsulinemia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Insulin human, Octreotide Acetate and Glucagon in people with Insulin Resistance and Prediabetic State, run by Columbia University 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 7 inclusion and 97 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jul 2024. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Absolute values of plasma glucose (time frame: Up to 425 minutes from the start of the procedure). The study lists 6 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 NCT06126354.

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 10 Jul 2024.
