NCT00623545

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out how exenatide causes weight loss. Specifically, the study is assessing how exenatide may change how people take in energy (energy intake), as well as how it may effect how people use energy (energy expenditure).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Energy Intake Measured Before Treatment and at the End of Treatment.

    Energy intake is as calculated from energy expenditure as measured by doubly labeled water and change in body energy stores before and at the end of treatment. Units are kcal/d.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Weight Loss After Administration of Exenatide.

    3 months

Study Arms (1)

Exenatide

EXPERIMENTAL

Exenatide. Dose was 5 microgram for 2 weeks that was increased to 10 microgram for 10 weeks Each subject serves as their own control for outcome measures taken before and during drug treatment.

Drug: Exenatide

Interventions

Exenatide dose was 5 microgram for 2 weeks that was increased to 10 microgram for 10 weeks of treatment.

Also known as: Byetta
Exenatide
