Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary aim of this observational study is to describe the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and Sodium-Glucose Co-transporter 2 inhibitors ( SGLT-2 inhibitors) on adrenal function. Secondary endpoint is change in intestinal microbiota.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an observational study conducted in patients with type 2 diabetes starting treatment with either GLP-1 receptor agonist or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor.

Planned study cohort consists of 60 patients: 30 patients starting GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment and 30 patients starting SGLT-2 inhibitor treatment. All patients must have metformin as background therapy. All other diabetes medications are allowed.

Patients are tested before starting treatment, at 1 month (stool sample only), 3 months and 12 months after starting treatment. The primary endpoint is change in overnight urinary aldosterone corrected for creatinine.

Secondary endpoint is change in intestinal microbiota composition.
