Measure
Treatment Group 1
Placebo first, then exendin 9-39 30 mg BID, then exendin 9-39 60 mg QD exendin 9-39: Exendin 9-39 is a competitive antagonist of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) at its receptor. Placebo: Placebo solution is identical to the active drug product except for the absence of the active ingredient, Exendin 9-39.
Treatment Group 2
Placebo first, then exendin 9-39 60 mg QD, then exendin 9-39 30 mg BID exendin 9-39: Exendin 9-39 is a competitive antagonist of GLP-1 at its receptor. Placebo: Placebo solution is identical to the active drug product except for the absence of the active ingredient, Exendin 9-39.
