Pediatric ObesityInsulin Resistance1 moreTo compare anthropometric and metabolic effects of a comprehensive weight management program on obese adolescents and children in comparison to regular clinical weight management visits.
Phase II Long Term, Randomized Study of Recombinant Human Insulin-like Growth Factor I in Children...
HyperinsulinismOBJECTIVES: Evaluate the safety and efficacy of long term recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I in children with hyperinsulinism.
Open-label Trial Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of Dasiglucagon in Children With Congenital Hyperinsulinism...
Congenital HyperinsulinismThe objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of dasiglucagon administered as a subcutaneous (SC) infusion in reducing hypoglycemia in children with CHI.
The Effect of Andrographis Paniculata to GLP-1, Fasting Insulin, Insulin 2-h Post OGTT, and HOMA-IR...
Increased InsulinPrevalence of type 2 diabetes have been increased, but medications had not been well, so that needed new alternatives. A new approach used in management of type 2 diabetes is incretin based therapy. Incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotrophic peptide (GIP), had producted in intestine due to carbohydrate intralumen. After had secreted, GLP-1 had degradated by DPP-4 enzyme till number and effect had been decreased. Decreasing of GLP-1 effect as main defect in type 2 diabetes. Andrographis paniculata (A. paniculata) as traditional treatment had known since years ago to have hypoglycemia effect. Extract of A. paniculata consists of andrographolid and flavonoid. Based on study of Wooten et al that flavonoid has hydroxyl to stimulate insulin's production through modulated GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1 receptor ligand). So the investigators need to study about The Effect of A. paniculata Extract to GLP-1, Fasting Plasma Insulin, Insulin concentrations measured during a standardized 2-h OGTT, and HOMA-IR.
An Open-Label Multiple Dose Study of RZ358 in Patients With Congenital Hyperinsulinism
Congenital HyperinsulinismThe objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and glucose-raising effects of RZ358 in patients with Congenital Hyperinsulinism (HI).
Effect of Exendin-(9-39) on Fasting Adaptation and Protein Sensitivity
Congenital HyperinsulinismThe purpose of this study is to examine the effects of exendin-(9-39) on fasting blood glucose and protein induced hypoglycemia on subjects with Congenital Hyperinsulinism. Funding Source - FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OODP).
Effect of Meal Frequency on Glycemic Control of People at High Risk or Diagnosed With Diabetes
Impaired Glucose ToleranceHyperinsulinism3 moreThis study investigated any potential associations between two isocaloric diets with different meal frequency (3 meals versus 6 meals) and glycemic control in people at high diabetes risk (lean and overweight/obese women with PCOS, individuals with hyperinsulinemia, individuals with impaired glucose tolerance) and diagnosed with diabetes.
Dose Ranging Study of Recombinant Human Insulin-like Growth Factor I in Children With Hyperinsulinism...
HyperinsulinismOBJECTIVES: I. Determine the dose of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I that minimizes or decreases the need for exogenous glucose support without causing hypoglycemia.
Bionic Pancreas in Children With Hyperinsulinism and Post-Pancreatectomy Diabetes
HyperinsulinismDiabetes2 moreThis is a pilot study designed to determine if the bihormonal bionic pancreas provides improved blood glucose control, compared to the current standard of care, in individuals with hyperinsulinism who developed diabetes after having a pancreatectomy.
Utility of [F-18] fluoroDOPA for Neonatal Hyperinsulinism
Congenital HyperinsulinismHyperinsulinism3 moreChildren with congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) have low blood sugar, and some of these children may require surgery. In this study, researchers affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania will test how well a radioactive drug (called F-DOPA) can detect a form of hyperinsulinism that may be cured by surgery. Eligible participants in this study will have positron emission tomography (PET) scans with F-DOPA prior to surgery.
