Pre-diabetes in Subject With Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) and Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
HYPOTHESIS: Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) have distinct pathophysiologic etiologies. Therefore, therapeutic interventions designed to correct the specific underlying pathogenic abnormalities in IGT and IFG will be required to optimally prevent the progressive beta cell failure and development of overt type 2 diabetes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Beta cell function [24 months after treatment phase begins]
Beta cell function will be measured as insulin secretion during the hyperglycemic clamp (mean plasma insulin concentration in uU/ml) multiplied by insulin sensitivity measured with the euglycemic insulin clamp (mg/kg.min).
- Insulin sensitivity [24 months after treatment phase begins]
Insulin sensitivity will be measured with the euglycemic insulin clamp and expressed as mg/kg.min.
- Glucose tolerance status [24 months after treatment phase begins]
Glucose tolerance status will be evaluated by measuring the HbA1c which is a measure of the average of the amount of glucose attached to hemoglobin over the past 3 months, expressed as a percentage.
