Pathophysiological Implications of the Incretin Hormones in Maturity Onset of Diabetes of the Young (MODY)

Completed
Conditions
Maturity-onset Diabetes of the Young
Interventions
Other: Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
Other: iso glycaemic intravenous (iv) glucose infusion (IIGI)
Dietary Supplement: Meal test
Other: Sitagliptin
Other: Incretin effect on sulphonyl urea treatment
Registration Number
NCT01342939
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Gentofte, Copenhagen
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to describe the incretin effect and postprandial incretin response in patients with MODY2 and MODY3 and a group of matched healthy subjects. In sulphonyl urea treated subjects the purpose is also to compare the incretin effect with and without treatment. In healthy subjects the purpose is also to investigate the incretin effect under increased levels of endogen incretin hormones.

Detailed Description

Comparison of of insulin secretion (AUC) during the experimental days. Furthermore a comparison of GIP, GLP1 and glucagon responses as well as plasma glucose levels.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incretin effectWithin 1 year

The difference in insulin responses, as assessed by the area under curve (AUC) for plasma insulin and C-peptide concentrations, during the two different glucose stimuli: OGTT and isoglycemic iv glucose infusion aswell as after a test meal in MODY-patients compared to healthy control subjects.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Plasma GLP1 responseWithin 1 year

Comparing GLP1 responses of the different experimental days, compared to healthy control subjects.

Plasma GIP responseWithin 1 year

Comparing GIP responses of the different experimental days, compared to healthy control subjects.

Plasma glucagon responseWithin 1 year

Comparing glucagon responses of the different experimental days, compared to healthy control subjects.
