No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether hypoglycaemia observed after food intake in bariatric patients can be either influenced by an SGLT2 inhibitor, empagliflozin, or via inhibition of inflammation with an human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL1-RA, anakinra).

Conditions

  • Postprandial Hypoglycemia
  • Bariatric Surgery
  • Late Dumping Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

Empagliflozin

Glucose lowering effect of empagliflozin for reducing the counter-regulatory glucose-lowering response

DRUG

Anakinra

IL-1Beta blockage effect on insulin secretion and thereby influencing postprandial glucose level

OTHER

oral placebo (winthrop tablet)

subcutaneous placebo (0.67 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride) 3 hours before the test meal and an oral placebo (winthrop tablet) 2 hours before the test meal will be administered by an Independent nurse to the blinded patient

OTHER

subcutaneous placebo (0.67 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride)

subcutaneous placebo (0.67 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride) will be administered in arm 'Placebo-Placebo' and arm 'drug: Empagliflozin'
