Brief Summary

This study will test the effect of four common oral anti-diabetic agents on hepatic insulin sensitivity in South Asian women with impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose. In a 12-week, ...

Detailed Description

Background: South Asians (SA) have a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D). SA i Norway develop T2D approximately 10 years earlier than Nordic subjects (NO).T2D in SA is often poorly regulated with...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Able and willing to give informed consent
  • Woman ≥ 18 years of age
  • Of South Asian origin
  • Participated in the DIASA 1 study (i.e. has had previous gestational diabetes (GDM) in last pregnancy). A period of 3 months after the 3-year limit since childbirth after GDM is seen as acceptable for inclusion.
  • Impaired glucose tolerance (2-hour glucose value ≥7.8 and \< 11.1 mmol/l) and/or impaired fasting glucose (fasting plasma glucose ≥ 6.1 and \< 7.0 mmol/l) diagnosed in DIASA 1

Exclusion

  • Known type 2 diabetes
  • Known type 1 diabetes
  • Fasting or 2-hour glucose values outside the inclusion criteria if the subject according to protocol needs to undergo an OGTT at baseline in DIASA 3
  • Pregnant or fully lactating at randomisation or planned during study period.
  • Not willing to practice a highly effective birth control method\* prior to initial dose, during study and for 2 weeks after the last administration of study drug.
  • Concomitant use of any antidiabetic medication
  • Concomitant use of fibrates or rifampicin
  • Radiological examinations iodine containing contrast the previous week before randomisation, or planned during the study period.
  • Known serious illness such as cancer (except in situ carcinoma) during past 5 years.
  • Previous radiation therapy directed towards the pelvic area.
  • Heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) class I-IV.
  • Estimated glomerulus filtration rate (eGFR) \< 60 ml/min/1,73m2
  • Chronic liver disease with serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) or alanine amino transferase (ALAT) \> 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or known impaired liver function (INR \> 1.5, Albumin \< 20 g/l, Bilirubin \> 20 g/l.
  • Active infectious disease at inclusion
  • Use of systemic corticosteroids \> 14 days within last 3 months before inclusion
  • Hypothyroidism where substitution with levothyroxine has not been stable for the last 3 months or with thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) outside normal limits.
  • A history of bullous pemphigoid
  • A history of acute or chronic pancreatitis
  • Previous or present acute metabolic acidosis.
  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the active ingredients or additives in the study medication or placebo capsules.
  • Macroscopic haematuria not previously examined
  • History of major surgical procedures within 3 months prior to inclusion or planned during study period.
  • Any condition which in the investigator's opinion would jeopardize the subject's safety or compliance with the protocol.
  • Birth control methods which may be considered as highly effective: Methods that can achieve a failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly are considered as highly effective birth control methods. Such methods include: combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal or transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable or implantable), intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system ( IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized partner or sexual abstinence.
