Trial summary

This is an exploratory study on the metabolic endotoxemia associated with type 2 diabetes. The investigators will measure systemic endotoxin level and lipid level after ingestion of high fat diet to evaluate the effect of gemigliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, on metabolic endotoxemia and lipemia induced by high fat diet.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effect of Gemigliptin on Metabolic Endotoxemia and Lipemia Induced by High Fat Diet in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

This is an exploratory study on the metabolic endotoxemia associated with type 2 diabetes. The investigators will measure systemic endotoxin level and lipid level after ingestion of high fat diet to evaluate the effect of gemigliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, on metabolic endotoxemia and lipemia induced by high fat diet.

Read the detailed description

Study subjects will be allocated to either gemigliptin or placebo. After 4 weeks of treatment and 2 weeks of wash out period, all subjects will be switched to the opposite arm.

The subjects will be tested oral fat tolerance test and adipose tissue needle biopsy(only for the subjects who agreed to participate donate adipose tissue) at 3 time points: the start of 1st treatment, end of 1st treatment and end of 2nd treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Difference between baseline and peak serum LPS

    The increment of serum LPS after ingestion of high fat diet

    Measured: serum LPS before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Fasting serum LPS level

    Compare fasting LPS level between treatment group

    Measured: After 10 hrs of fasting

  2. Incremental AUC of serum LPS during oral fat tolerance test

    Calculated incremental AUC of serum LPS

    Measured: serum LPS before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

  3. Difference between baseline and peak serum triglyceride level

    The increment of serum TG after ingestion of high fat diet

    Measured: serum TG before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

  4. Incremental AUC of serum triglyceride level during oral fat tolerance test

    Calculated incremental AUC of serum TG

    Measured: serum TG before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

  5. Difference between baseline and peak serum apolipoprotein-B48

    The increment of serum apolipoprotein-B48 after ingestion of high fat diet

    Measured: serum apolipoprotein-B48 before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

  6. Incremental AUC of serum apolipoprotein-B48 during oral fat tolerance test

    Calculated incremental AUC of serum apolipoprotein-B48

    Measured: serum apolipoprotein-B48 before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet

  7. Serum level of inflammatory markers (CRP, TNF-alpha, IL-6)

    Compare serum level of inflammatory markers between treatment groups

    Measured: After 10 hr of fasting

  8. mRNA expression level of inflammatory markers in the adipose tissue

    Compare mRNA expression level of inflammatory markers

    Measured: After high fat diet ingestion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gemigliptin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2016. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Difference between baseline and peak serum LPS (time frame: serum LPS before high fat diet and 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 3 hr, 4 hr after high fat diet). 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 21 Apr 2016.
