No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether exenatide is superior to insulin glargine (after 24 weeks) in reducing liver fat content (by MRS) in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus and concomitant non-alcoholic fatty-liver disease(NAFLD).

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
  • Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Interventions

DRUG

Exenatide

The starting dose of exenatide is 5 ug bid, subcutaneously, for 4 weeks, followed by 10 ug bid, subcutaneously, for 20 weeks. If hypoglycaemia (blood glucose\<2.9 mmol/l or \< 3.9 mmol/l at least 2 times) or serious intolerance occurs, the dose will be adjusted to 5 ug bid, subcutaneously.

DRUG

insulin glargine

The starting dose of insulin glargine will depend upon the HbA1c level at screening(HbA1c \<8% use 0.1 -0.2 U/kg per day;HbA1c \>8% use 0.2 -0.3 U/kg per day). Dose adjustment protocol for insulin glargine (at least 3 determinations of fasting blood glucose per week): fasting blood glucose(FBG) \> 180 mg/dL(10 mmol/l): add 4 U; FBG 140-180 mg/dL(7.8-10 mmol/l): add 2 U; FBG 126-139 mg/dL(7.0-7.8 mmol/l): add 1 U. If hypoglycemia, reduce insulin glargine by: blood glucose \<70mg/dl(3.9mmol/l): 10%-20%; blood glucose \<40mg/dl(2.2mmol/l): 20%-40%.
