Exenatide on GI Motor Function and Permeability in Short Bowel Syndrome

January 10, 2014 updated by: Michael Camilleri, Mayo Clinic

Acute Effects of a Glucagon-like Peptide 1 Analog, Exenatide, on Gastrointestinal Motor Function and Permeability in Patients With Short Bowel Syndrome on Home Parenteral Nutrition

We plan to examine the gastrointestinal (GI) physiologic profile of Exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) analog as a possible intestino-trophic growth factor capable of inducing small bowel adaptation and regeneration in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS), with the potential to decrease parenteral nutrition dependence.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Patients with short bowel syndrome, between the ages of 18-85 who are dependent on parenteral nutrition for at least a year and are being closely followed by the Mayo Clinic Home Parenteral Nutrition Program (HPN) with at least one multisystem evaluation a year.

Experimental: Exenatide
Qualifying participants will be assigned to 2 different treatment arms consisting of placebo or exenatide 5 mcg administered subcutaneously twice: the first dose during fasting and the second four hours later. Subsequently, participants will switch over to the alternate treatment arm. In both arms participants will undergo a series of measurements including 24 hour GI transit, permeability measurements by using mannitol and lactulose, and 24 hour urine and stool collections.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in 24hr Gastrointestinal and Colonic Transit before and after Exenatide vs placebo
Time Frame: In both arms participants will undergo GI transit measurements on 2 seperate occasions for a total of 24 hours, with a wash out period of 48 hours in between transit studies.
To measure gastric, small intestinal and colonic (if applicable) transit in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS) before and after the administration of Exenatide compared to placebo
In both arms participants will undergo GI transit measurements on 2 seperate occasions for a total of 24 hours, with a wash out period of 48 hours in between transit studies.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in 24hr Intestinal Permeability before and after administration of Exenatide vs placebo
Time Frame: In both arms participants will undergo intestinal permeability measurements on 2 seperate occasions for 24 hours,with a wash out period of 48 hours in between permeability studies. .
To measure intestinal permeability to mannitol and lactulose in patients with short bowel syndrome before and after administration of Exenatide compared to placebo
In both arms participants will undergo intestinal permeability measurements on 2 seperate occasions for 24 hours,with a wash out period of 48 hours in between permeability studies. .

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in 24hr Stool Weight before and after administration of Exenatide vs placebo
