Trial Outcomes & Findings for Mechanism of Microbiome-induced Insulin Resistance in Humans (Aim2) (NCT NCT02127125)

NCT ID: NCT02127125

Last Updated: 2020-09-11

Results Overview

Insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle (M value) as measured by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp study. The clamp study tests the ability of peripheral tissues such as skeletal muscle to uptake glucose in response to a constant insulin stimulus, which give a measure of sensitivity to insulin action. 60 mU/m2\*min insulin was infused into subjects for 180 minutes with concomitant adjustment of glucose infusion rate using D20 glucose to maintain a clamped plasma glucose concentration of 100 mg/dL. When the glucose infusion rate equals the rate of glucose uptake and the targeted glucose concentration is achieved, the clamp is at steady-state equilibrium. Steady-state glucose infusion rate at 150min-180mins was used as the measure to calculate the M value.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Change from baseline insulin sensitivity at 28 days of the intervention.

Population: Enrollment and completion for Type 2 diabetes mellitus group was low due to exclusionary criteria that prevented most diabetes medications from being used while in the study. Lean with NGT and Obese with NGT groups completed 6 control, 8 sevelamer, 8 synbiotic subjects for Lean group and 10 control, 9 sevelamer and 9 synbiotic for Obese group.

Insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle (M value) as measured by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp study. The clamp study tests the ability of peripheral tissues such as skeletal muscle to uptake glucose in response to a constant insulin stimulus, which give a measure of sensitivity to insulin action. 60 mU/m2\*min insulin was infused into subjects for 180 minutes with concomitant adjustment of glucose infusion rate using D20 glucose to maintain a clamped plasma glucose concentration of 100 mg/dL. When the glucose infusion rate equals the rate of glucose uptake and the targeted glucose concentration is achieved, the clamp is at steady-state equilibrium. Steady-state glucose infusion rate at 150min-180mins was used as the measure to calculate the M value.
