Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Longitudinal study of beta cell function up to 2 years after GBP surgery. Evaluation of the role of endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Early Phase 1

Detailed Description

The increased prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has resulted in a surge in the number of patients seeking surgical weight loss. Gastric bypass surgery (GBP) results in 30-40% body weight loss with resolution of T2DM in 40-80% of cases. The mechanisms by which T2DM improves after GBP are unclear. Glycemic control occurs long before significant weight loss, suggesting that the nature of the procedure, rather than the weight loss, is responsible for the T2DM improvement. Recent data have singled out the role of the gut hormones known as incretins in diabetes improvement after GBP. The current proposal will study 1) whether the short and long term change in the gut hormone incretins after GBP results in improved insulin secretion in response to the administration of oral and IV glucose, in patients with diabetes undergoing GBP surgery; 2) the factors responsible for diabetes remission - or lack of - after GBP. The investigators wish to apply our finding to define better surgical outcome on diabetes.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Exendin9

Longitudinal study of insulin secretion and sensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes before and after gastric bypass surgery.

Drug: Exendin9
Dosed at 600 pmol/kg/min for 210 minutes.
Other Names:
  • Exendin(9-39)
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Beta Cell Sensitivity (BCS) [at 2 years post GBP surgery]

      Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) will be used to calculate BCS Graded glucose infusion with arginine (GGI) will be used to calculate BCS

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Insulin Secretion Rate (ISR) after OGTT [2 years post GBP surgery]

      An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) will be used to estimate ISR in subjects before and up to 2 years after GBP

    2. Insulin Secretion Rate (ISR) after GGI [2 years post GBP surgery]

      A graded glucose infusion with arginine (GGI) will be used to estimate ISR in subjects before and up to 2 years after GBP

    3. Maximal Beta Cell Function [2 years post GBP surgery]

      The effect of a graded glucose infusion with arginine (GGI) on insulin secretion rate (ISR) will be measured in subjects before and up to 2 years after GBP
