NCT02274740

Brief Summary

Primary Objective: To evaluate the ability of lixisenatide to modulate postprandial hyperlipidemia in particular, the effects on plasma changes in triglycerides. Secondary Objectives: The effect of lixisenatide on the following postprandial lipids: apolipoprotein (APO) B48; free fatty acid, lipoprotein distribution, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. The effect of lixisenatide on chronic low-grade inflammation present in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and obesity. The effect of lixisenatide on microvascular dysfunction. To evaluate the effect of lixisenatide on postprandial plasma glucose, insulin and C-peptide and glucagon.

Study Arms (2)

lixisenatide

EXPERIMENTAL

Lixisenatide injection should be performed in the morning, within 1 hour (ie, 0-60 minutes), prior to breakfast (or standardized meal). Lixisenatide is to be started with once daily injections of 10 μg per day for 2 weeks then to be continued by the maintenance dose (8 weeks) of 20 μg/d up to the end of the treatment period.

Drug: LIXISENATIDE AVE0010Drug: metformin

Greater than or equal than 1.5 g/day as background therapy for 10 weeks

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male and female patients, 18-70 years of age.
  • Diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes treated with metformin and obesity (body mass index \[BMI\] \>30 kg/m\^2) and the following other abnormalities:
  • Abdominal obesity (waist circumference \>102 cm in men and \>88 cm in women). According to National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel (NCEP-ATP) III (2001).
  • Glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥7 and ≤8.5% (after Sponsor approval providers might reasonably suggest more stringent A1c goals \[such as 6.5%\] for selected individual patients, if this can be achieved without significant hypoglycemia or other adverse effects of treatment. Appropriate patients might include those with short duration of diabetes, long life expectancy, and no significant cardiovascular disease).
  • Hypertriglyceridemia (fasting triglyceride levels between 150 mg/dL and 600 mg/dL, cholesterol \<300 mg/dL. In order to exclude patients who might be suffering from a primitive dyslipidemia).
  • Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (serum HDL-cholesterol \<40 mg/dL in men and \<50 mg/dL in women).
  • Written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Smoking. Thyroid disease even if under appropriate hormonal replacement therapy or thyroid suppressant (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone \[TSH\] \>5 mU/L with clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism).
  • Hepatic disease (Aspartate Aminotransferase \[ASAT\] or Alanine Aminotransferase \[ALAT\] \>2 times the upper limit of normal).
  • Renal disease (serum creatinine \>1.7 times the upper limit of normal). A history of coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, or peripheral arterial disease in the 6 months before enrollment.
  • History of malignancies. Use of lipid lowering therapy. Systolic blood pressure ≥180 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥110 mmHg. Triglycerides \>600 mg/dL. History of chronic pancreatitis or of idiopathic acute pancreatitis.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
