NCT02160990

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this study was to determine the effect of exenatide on gastric emptying, satiety and satiation in obese participants. The hypothesis in this study was that exenatide retards gastric emptying in obese patients with baseline accelerated gastric emptying.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Gastric Emptying Half-time (T 1/2) of Solids

    Gastric emptying of solids half-time is defined as the time for half of the ingested solids to leave the stomach. Subjects were given a scrambled egg breakfast with toast and a glass of milk. The eggs contained a small amount of a radioactive substance. Anterior and posterior gamma camera images were obtain immediately after radiolabeled meal ingestion, every 15 minutes for the first 2 hours, then 30 minutes for the next 2 hours (total 4 hours after the radiolabeled meal).

    time frame is 30 days after the initiation of dose.

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Percentage of Gastric Contents Emptied at 1 Hour

    Visit 4, approximately 1 hours after radiolabeled meal was ingested

  • Change in Body Weight

    baseline, day 30

  • Satiation Expressed as Volume to Fullness

    Visit 3, approximately 30 minutes after liquid meal

  • Maximum Tolerated Volume

    Visit 3, approximately 30 minutes after liquid meal

  • Buffet Meal Intake (kcal)

    Visit 4, approximately 30 minutes after start of "all you can eat" meal

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes

You may qualify if:

  • Obese subjects with BMI\> 30 Kg/m\^2: Otherwise healthy individuals who are not currently on treatment for cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, hematological, neurological, endocrine (other than hyperglycemia not requiring medical therapy) and unstable psychiatric disease.
  • Women of childbearing potential will have negative pregnancy test before initiation of medication.
  • Gastric emptying (GE): Accelerated GE T1/2 \< 79 minutes or GE 1h\>35 %

You may not qualify if:

  • Type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus diagnosed according to American Diabetes Association criteria
  • Unstable heart disease as evidenced by ongoing angina
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Concomitant use of appetite suppressants (i.e., caffeine based or diethylpropion) or orlistat (Xenical®)
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (Blood pressure greater than 160/90 mmHg)
  • Use of anti-diabetic drugs including metformin,
  • History of nephrolithiasis,
  • Recurrent major depression, presence or history of suicidal behavior or ideation with intent to act, and current substantial depressive symptoms (Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) total score ≥10).
  • Gastroparesis
  • Inflammatory bowel disease or irritable bowel syndrome
  • Malignancy treated with chemotherapy within the past 3 years
  • History of pancreatitis
  • Renal insufficiency (eGFR less than 50 ml/min)
  • Concomitant use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (i.e., phenelzine, selegiline), serotonergic agents, and other centrally acting appetite suppressants
  • Significant psychiatric dysfunction based upon screening with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) self-administered alcoholism screening test (SAAST, substance abuse) and the questionnaire on eating and weight patterns (binge eating disorders and bulimia). If such a dysfunction is identified by a HADS score ≥11 in any of the subscales or difficulties with substance or eating disorders, the participant will be excluded and given a referral letter to his/her primary care doctor for further appraisal and follow-up.
