Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Background: Pasireotide treatment is strictly associated with glucose metabolism impairment. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of pasireotide on β -cell and adipose function in patients with Cushing's disease (CD).

Methods: Clinical and hormonal parameters, insulin secretion, evaluated by homostasis model assessment (HOMA-β) and by the area under the curve (AUC2h) of C-peptide during a mixed meal tolerance test and insulin sensitivity, evaluated by the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, were evaluated in 12 patients with active CD before and after 12 months of pasireotide.

Circulating adipokines were evaluated in patients with CD compared to a matched group of 12 diabetic patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change of circulating adipokines levels [Change from baseline to 12 months of therapy]
