NCT00411411

Brief Summary

We wish to evaluate the effect of long term treatment with a DPP-IV inhibitor on the function of the incretin hormones Hypothesis We hypothesize that that a gradual improvement in metabolic control induced by DPP-IV inhibitor (Januvia®) treatment significantly ameliorates the impaired secretion and potency of GLP-1 and leads to a restoration of the lost action of GIP.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • the Relative Increase in Meal-induced Total GLP-1 Secretion

    Patients will be followed for 12 weeks with three meal test examinations; before treatment, after 1 week of treatment and after 12 weeks of treatment. Primary outcome is AUC GLP-1 (pM x 120 as stated).

    12 weeks

  • Restoration of the Insulinotropic Effect of GIP

    Restoration of the insulinotropic effect of GIP measured as the relative increase in GIP induced amplification of the late phase insulin secretion (AUC) response to glucose. Patients will be followed for 12 weeks with examinations after 1 and after 12 weeks of treatment.

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Examination of GLP-2, Somatostatin, Glucagon, Peptide-YY and Two Glycaemic Control Parameters (HbA1c and Fasting Plasma Glucose)
