GLP-1 Receptor Targeting in Diabetic and Healthy Individuals
Completed
- Conditions
- Type 1 Diabetes
- Interventions
- Other: radiolabeled Exendin
- Registration Number
- NCT01825148
- Lead Sponsor
- Radboud University Medical Center
- Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine whether there are differences in pancreatic uptake of the radiotracer between healthy individuals and patients with type 1 diabetes. If T1D patients have a markedly reduced uptake, the compound may be suitable for estimation of pancreatic beta cell mass, i.e. the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin.
