Trial Outcomes & Findings for Growth Hormone Feedback to Insulin-like Growth Factor-I (IGF-1) and Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) (NCT NCT00915954)

NCT ID: NCT00915954

Last Updated: 2019-07-09

Results Overview

Subjects underwent recombinant insulin like growth factor 1 (rhIGF1) suppression testing and growth hormone levels were measured at time 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes after injection of rhIGF-1. A response \</= 0.4 ng/ml is considered a normal response in the healthy control and diabetic control subjects. The percentage of subjects with a normal GH suppression to \</= 0.4 ng/ml was calculated.

Placebo, oral glucose tolerance test, and subcutaneous administration of recombinant human IGF-1 will be given at visits 2, 3, and 4 respectively. All visits will be performed within a 4 week period. Oral Glucose Tolerance Test: Participants will have their blood drawn for a baseline value and then will be asked to drink a beverage with 75 grams of sugar. Blood will then be drawn every 30 minutes for 2 hours. Subcutaneous administration of recombinant human IGF-1: Participants will receive a subcutaneous injection of recombinant human IGF-1 followed by a series of blood draws. Placebo: Participants will receive a subcutaneous injection of saline followed by a series of blood draws.
