Summary

Healthy volunteers were recruited from the Old Order Amish population in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. After providing informed consent, research participants were screened for eligibility. The clinical trial was designed as a randomized crossover study in which participants underwent two frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance tests - one after receiving a subcutaneous injection of saline and one after receiving a subcutaneous injection of rapid-acting exenatide (BYETTA). The study sought to determine whether genetic variants are associated with the magnitude of the effect of exenatide. However, because the study fell far short of its recruitment targets, it was under-powered to evaluate genetic association. Thus, the data analysis focused on testing the hypothesis that the order of testing (whether the placebo FSIGT was conducted before the exenatide-stimulated FSIGT or whether the FSIGTs were conducted in the reverse order) does not alter the magnitude impact of exenatide on responses to a frequently sampled iv glucose tolerance test.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Exenatide Injection (before the first FSIGT)

Nurses administered exenatide (5 mcg) subcutaneously 15 minutes prior to conducting the first frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. In this crossover study, participants will also be "crossed over" to receive saline rather than exenatide: Nurses administered saline (0.2 mL) subcutaneously 15 minutes prior to conducting a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test.

DRUG

Exenatide injection before the second FSIGT)

Nurses administered exenatide (5 mcg) subcutaneously 15 minutes prior to conducting the second frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test.
