Time-restricted Eating to Improve Metabolic Abnormalities in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

PCOSHyperinsulinemia1 more

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is associated with metabolic symptoms such as hyperinsulinemia. Time-restricted eating may reduce serum insulin and improve insulin resistance in patients with PCOS. Currently, there are few studies investigating time-restricted eating in patients with PCOS. The investigators plan to test the feasibility of time-restricted eating in the management of PCOS by means of a real-world clinical intervention. The investigators will determine if an 18:6 eating protocol reduces insulin levels by means of a randomised controlled crossover trial.

HM15136 Treatment for 8 Weeks in Subjects Aged ≥2 Years With Congenital Hyperinsulinism (CHI)

Congenital Hyperinsulinism

This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of HM15136 when used as add-on therapy in subjects with CHI with persistent hypoglycemia while on standard of care treatment (SoC). HM15136 will be administered once weekly in multiple doses to subjects in multiple age including pediatric to find appropriate exposure-response data.

A Pilot Study of Monitoring Insulin Levels and Treating Hyperinsulinemia and Hyperglycemia With...

Metastatic Breast CancerHyperinsulinism1 more

The goal of this study is to test whether monitoring insulin levels and using pioglitazone to treat hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia in patients treated with Alpelisib for metastatic breast cancer is feasible and safe, and to assess the rates of glycemic control, dose reductions and treatment discontinuation and the progression free survival of patients treated with this regimen.

Hyperinsulinemia in Prediabetes Mediated by Interleukin-1β

HyperinsulinemiaPreDiabetes

The goal of this clinical study is to test whether postprandial insulin secretion in subjects with prediabetes is mediated by Interleukin-1β and may be influenced by administration of the medicinal product anakinra (Kineret®). The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference in insulin secretion following a standardized mixed-meal test under anakinra compared to placebo.

Diabetes MellitusType 1

The investigators will test the hypothesis that reducing insulin doses using a low carbohydrate diet (LCD) will be associated with with improved insulin sensitivity (Aim 1) and blood vessel health (Aim 2).

Fluorodopa F 18 in Congenital Hyperinsulinism and Insulinoma

Congenital HyperinsulinismInsulinoma

Low blood sugars are known to cause brain damage in newborn babies. One of the most common causes of low blood sugars persisting beyond the new born period is a condition called congenital hyperinsulinism (HI). This is a disease whereby the pancreas secretes too much insulin and causes low blood sugars. Twenty to forty percent of these babies will have brain damage. There are two forms of this disease. In one form only a small part of the pancreas makes too much insulin (focal HI) and in the other, the whole pancreas make too much insulin (diffuse HI). Another very similar disease is insulinoma which occurs after birth, but also causes hyperinsulinism. If a surgeon could know which part of the pancreas has the focal lesion he could remove it and cure the patient. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a new investigational drug called Fluorodopa F 18, when used with a PET scan, can find the focal lesion and guide the surgeon to remove it, thus curing the patient and preventing further brain damage.

18F-DOPA II - PET Imaging Optimization

Congenital HyperinsulinismNeuroblastoma4 more

A single centre non-randomized, non-blinded phase III prospective cohort study of 18F-DOPA PET/CT imaging in specific patient populations: Pediatric patients (less than 18 years old) with congenital hyperinsulinism. Pediatric patients (less than 18 years old) with neuroblastoma. Pediatric (less than 18 years old) or Adult patients (18 or older) with known or clinically suspected neuroendocrine tumor. Adult patients (18 or older) with a clinical suspicion of Parkinson's disease or Lewy body dementia. Pediatric (less than 18 years old) or Adult patients (18 or older) with brain tumors. Image optimization (the primary study objective) and gallbladder activity pattern (the secondary objective) will be evaluated.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Exercise Training in Adolescents At-Risk for Type 2 Diabetes

Insulin ResistanceDepression6 more

The investigators are doing this study to learn more about how to prevent type 2 diabetes in teenage girls. The purpose of this study is to find out if taking part in a cognitive-behavioral therapy group, exercise training group, or a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and exercise training groups, decreases stress, improves mood, increases physical activity and physical fitness, and decreases insulin resistance among teenagers at risk for diabetes.

Effect of Hibiscus Sabdariffa Beverage

Markers of InflammationHyperglycemia2 more

There are numerous plant foods that are a source of bioactive compounds, which can induce an anti-inflammatory effect on various pathways of inflammatory processes in the body as it may be useful in decreasing markers of inflammation expressed by COVID-19 infectious disease and conditions such as obesity and its comorbidities. Given the above, Hibiscus sabdariffa hibiscus possesses advantages as a potential adjuvant in the management of COVID-19, as studies on the phytochemical properties of H. sabdariffa show that it has several health benefits, and could be used as a potent material for the therapeutic treatment of various diseases. Due to its high content of bioactive compounds, these can exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic effects, as well as help control blood glucose levels, prevent cardiovascular disease and obesity. In addition, it is a traditional component of the Mexican diet, of common consumption, easy incorporation in the diet, versatility in preparation and national production. Therefore, to evaluate the bioavailability of bioactive compounds present in a beverage developed from the TECNM/ITESO collaboration, as well as the glycemic and insulinemic response produced by its consumption; besides establishing the effect on some inflammation markers that may be activated as a consequence of the SARS-COV-2 virus infection. This will help to increase knowledge about potential treatment/prevention schemes, avoid the development of severe manifestations of the disease, as well as boost the production and market of a national product.

Effect of Alpelisib in Healthy Volunteers

Insulin ResistanceHyperinsulinemia1 more

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a single dose of the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor alpelisib versus placebo in healthy volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are the impact of acute alpelisib-induced insulin resistance on parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism (how healthy people respond to temporary insulin resistance so that the investigators can see what happens to how the liver handles fat and sugar). Participants will: Consume their total calculated daily caloric needs in nutritional supplements, divided in three meals, and otherwise fast for 24 hours Take a dose of alpelisib 300 mg or placebo at bedtime Wear a continuous glucose monitor for 72 hours Participate in an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) Researchers will compare blood tests before and during OGTT in participants randomized (like the flip of a coin) to alpelisib versus placebo to see how the drug treatment affects plasma glucose, serum insulin, and serum lipid parameters (triglycerides, free fatty acids, and apolipoprotein B).
