PDE5 Inhibition for Obesity-Related Cardiometabolic Dysfunction

3 maggio 2022 aggiornato da: Evan Brittain, Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Obesity and its adverse cardiometabolic consequences are major public health problems. Several features of obesity contribute to the associated cardiovascular risk and are potential targets for intervention. These include insulin resistance and beta cell dysfunction, reduced metabolic rate, and impaired aerobic capacity.The purpose of this study is to examine if the phosphodiesterase type 5A inhibitor tadalafil improves cardiometabolic health in individuals who are obese and insulin resistant.

Descrizione dettagliata

Obesity is a risk factor for nearly all cardiovascular (CV) disease including coronary artery disease, hypertension, and heart failure. Increased CV risk in obese individuals appears to depend largely on the degree of metabolic dysregulation and metabolic risk factors (glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, etc.). Notably, interventions that improve insulin sensitivity and cardiorespiratory fitness can reduce CV risk in obese individuals, even in the absence of weight loss.

The cyclic guanylate monophosphate pathway (cGMP) is involved in energy homeostasis and systemic metabolism. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that increasing cGMP activity is beneficial from a metabolic standpoint. Tadalafil is a clinically-available drug that inhibits the enzyme that breaks down cGMP.

The study investigators hypothesize that chronic PDE5 inhibition in obese, insulin-resistant adults will improve cardiometabolic health.

Aim 1: To examine the effect of PDE5 inhibition on energy expenditure. Aim 2: To examine the effect of PDE5 inhibition on insulin sensitivity and secretion.

Aim 3: To examine the effect of PDE5 inhibition on cGMP tone and circulating mediators of cardiometabolic risk.

Armi e interventi

Gruppo di partecipanti / Arm
Intervento / Trattamento
Comparatore attivo: Tadalafil
Subjects will be randomized to one of two arms. 100 obese adult subjects will be randomized to the Tadalafil arm following the screening visit. Beginning at their baseline visit, they will receive an oral daily dose of Tadalafil (20mg) that they will take for 12 weeks (through their completion of the study). After randomization has occurred, the active comparator subjects will undergo the following visit protocol: baseline visit (two half-days), an interim visit (6 weeks post-baseline), and a 12-week visit (two half-days).
Tadalafil is an FDA approved, clinically-available drug that inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5A (PDE5). Subjects who are randomized to this arm will be provided with 20mg of Tadalafil to take every day for 12 weeks, beginning at their baseline visit.
Altri nomi:
  • CIALIS
Comparatore placebo: Placebo
Subjects will be randomized to one of two arms. 100 obese adult subjects will be randomized to the placebo arm following the screening visit. Beginning at their baseline visit, they will receive an oral daily dose of a placebo pill (20mg) that they will take for 12 weeks (through their completion of the study). After randomization has occurred, the placebo comparator subjects will undergo the following visit protocol: baseline visit (two half-days), an interim visit (6 weeks post-baseline), and a 12-week visit (two half-days).
100 patients will be randomized to receive a placebo pill. Subjects in this arm will be provided with 20mg Placebo to take every day for 12 weeks, beginning at their baseline visit.

Lasso di tempo: 12 weeks
During the metabolic chamber protocol, conducted at baseline and at 12 weeks, the cardiopulmonary exercise test protocol will be conducted. The Energy Expenditure (EE) related to physical activity will be calculated as peak EE above the resting level while performing the exercise test.

Lasso di tempo: 12 weeks
Quality of life will be assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). The SF-36 is a 36 question survey with a total score range from 0-100; higher scores indicate better quality of life.
