Actual (reported)Among South Asians, in comparison to Western Europeans, there is an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and DM2-related cardiovascular disease. The effect of Liraglutide (Victoza®) on cardiovascular function is therefore investigated in the DM2 patient group of South Asian descent specifically. Liraglutide is a new widely prescribed therapeutic agent for DM2 patients. It is a Glucagon Like Peptide - 1 homologue that improves glucose homeostasis and reduces blood pressure and body weight. The disadvantageous metabolic phenotype as seen in South Asians includes a relatively large total fat mass, with predominately visceral relative to subcutaneous adipose tissue and lower brown adipose tissue volume and activity, accompanied by increased lipid levels. The key elements in the mechanism of action of Liraglutide seem to correspond to the differences in metabolic profile between South Asians and Western Europeans. Diastolic dysfunction, an early finding of cardiovascular disease in DM2 and obesity and an independent predictor of mortality, has been shown to be associated with the amount of triglyceride accumulation in the heart and liver. The investigators hypothesize that Liraglutide has direct advantageous cardiovascular effects and reduces triglyceride accumulation in end-organs, specifically for DM2 patients of South Asian descent.

Liraglutide: Solution for subcutaneous injection 6 mg/ml; Flexpen 3 ml. Dose: s.c. 0,6 mg (0,1 mL) once daily. After 1 week, the dose will be increased to 1,2 mg (0,2 mL) once daily. If tolerated, after 1 week, dose will be increased to 1.8 mg (0,3 mL) once daily. In case of a hypoglycaemic episode, the dosage of oral blood glucose lowering medicaments will be adjusted first. If hypoglycaemia persists, Liraglutide / Liraglutide placebo will be adjusted on the basis of clinical parameters. Duration: 26 weeks
Liraglutide placebo: Solution for injection; Flexpen 3 ml. Dose: same as Liraglutide Duration: 26 weeks
Drug: Liraglutide Preparation and labelling of Investigational Medicinal Product: Liraglutide will be packed and labeled by Novo Nordisk A/S and provided in non-subject specific boxes. Labeling will be in accordance with Annex 13, local law and trial requirements. The examples of labels are not readily available, but will be supplied when received from Novo Nordisk. Drug accountability: Drug accountability will be cared for by the Department of Clinical Pharmacy of the LUMC. The trial product will be dispensed to each subject as required according to treatment group by the clinical pharmacist. No trial product will be dispensed to any person not enrolled in the trial.
