NCT04088461

Brief Summary

The goal of this protocol is to evaluate the effect of addhing linagliptin to patients with prediabetes who do not reverse to normoglycemia after 12 months of treatment with metformin alone. The duration of the study will be 6 months, and it is primarily a efficacy study. Main outcomes will be glucose levels during OGTT, insulin secretion and pancreatic beta cell function measured by the disposition index derived from the OGTT.
