A Trial Investigating the Possible Difference in Development of Type 2 Diabetes Between Caucasian and Japanese Subjects

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Diabetes
Interventions
Other: Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
Other: Euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp
Registration Number
NCT00897169
Lead Sponsor
Novo Nordisk A/S
Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Europe and Japan. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the possible difference in the development of type 2 diabetes in a Japanese and a Caucasian population. Healthy subjects, subjects with impaired glucose tolerance, as well as subjects with type 2 diabetes will be included in the trial. The development of type 2 diabetes across the cohort will be investigated with regard to insulin sensitivity and B-cell capacity.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Beta-cell function index estimated by a model-based analysis fit to the complete OGTT C-peptide and glucose profiles (12 time points), and including diabetes progression (as assessed by the glucose concentration 2 hours after an oral glucose load)At 5-hour Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Fraction of the possible difference in ß-cell function and insulin sensitivity between Japanese and Caucasian that can be explained by each covariate factorAt 5-hour OGTT and 4-hour clamp procedure
Evaluation of comparability of OGTT and clamp data based on modelling data of insulin sensitivity from steady-state clamp insulin and glucose concentrations and OGTT insulin and glucose profiles (12 time points)At 5-hour OGTT and 4-hour clamp procedure
Insulin sensitivity estimated by a model-based analysis fit to the complete OGTT insulin and glucose profiles (12 time points)At 5-hour OGTT and 4-hour clamp procedure
