De rol van fosfodiësteraseremmers bij de secretie van incretine

7 november 2026 bijgewerkt door: National Institute on Aging (NIA)

Background:

The drug Roflumilast (Daliresp) is used to treat Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). COPD is a lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe. Studies have shown that this drug decreased the blood sugar of people with type 2 diabetes. Sitagliptin (Januvia) is a medication presently used to treat diabetes. Researchers think that both of these drugs may decrease blood sugar by causing an increase in the hormone GLP-1.This hormone is secreted in the small intestines and stomach and is also known as an incretin. Researchers want to study how these drugs affect blood sugar, insulin, and other hormones in the blood.

Objectives:

  • To study the effects of Roflumilast (Daliresp) and Sitagliptin (Januvia) on blood sugar and insulin.
  • To better understand GLP-1 and other gut hormones. This may lead to new treatments for type 2 diabetes.

Eligibility:

  • Healthy volunteers age 21 55.
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) less than 30

Design:

-This study will require one screening visit and four study visits, scheduled about 3-weeks apart.

Screening visit requires participants to arrive after fasting for 10 hours and have the following:

  • Medical history, physical exam, height, weight, blood pressure measurements and blood and urine tests.
  • A 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Participants will drink an orange-flavored drink containing 75 grams of sugar (300 calories). A blood sample will be taken prior to drinking the beverage and 2-hours later.
  • An electrocardiogram (EKG) to measure the electrical activity of the heart.
  • Questionnaires about risk for depression or suicide.

Study visits 1to 4:

  • Participants will arrive the evening prior and blood work will be done to confirm eligibility. They will not eat or drink anything except water starting at 8:00 p.m.

  • About 6:30 a.m. the following day, an I.V. (small plastic tube) will be placed in an arm vein and used to take 20 blood samples over a period of about 11 hours.

  • Participants will receive one of the following study medication/placebo groupings in random order:

    1. Roflumilast (Daliresp) 500 mcg pill; and 1 placebo pill
    2. Sitaglipitin (Januvia) 100 mg pill; and 1 placebo pill
    3. Roflumilast (Daliresp) 500 mcg pill; and Sitagliptin (Januvia) 100 mg pill
    4. 2 placebo pills
  • One hour later, they will have a 10-hour mixed meal test (MMT). They will be asked to drink a nutritional shake (Ensure Plus). Blood samples will be taken over the next 10 hours to measure blood sugar, insulin and other hormones. At the end of the test, they will be given a meal.

  • Participants will answer questions about side effects and symptoms. They will receive a follow-up phone call within 10 days.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Objectives and Specific Aims:

We plan to investigate whether phosphodiesterases are involved in the regulation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion from L cells in humans. We hypothesize that: (1) phosphodiesterase-4D (PDE4D) inhibitor (roflumilast) enhance GLP-1 secretion from L cells; (2) PDE4D inhibitor (roflumilast) and DPP4 inhibitor (sitagliptin) have synergistic effect on increasing the amount of circulating active GLP-1.

Experimental Design and Methods:

Twenty healthy adults, age 21-55, will be recruited for this study. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study. Each subject will serve as his/her own control and each person will have four different study visits spaced about 3 weeks apart. During each visit, they will receive one of the following medications (oral route) in random order:

  1. Roflumilast (Daliresp) 500 mcg + Placebo
  2. Sitagliptin (Januvia) 100 mg + Placebo
  3. Roflumilast (Daliresp) 500 mcg + Sitagliptin (Januvia) 100 mg
  4. Placebo

A 10-hr mixed-meal test will be administered 1 hour after the medications and frequent blood-samplings will be done over 10 hours.

Medical Relevance and Expected Outcome:

Preliminary clinical data have shown that phosphodiesterase inhibitors improved glycemic control in type 2 diabetes, and pre-clinical animal data have shown that phosphodiesterase inhibitors enhanced GLP-1 secretion from L cells. The application of novel, pre-clinical findings to an understanding of human biology and pathobiology is of fundamental and critical importance. This study will give us a better understanding of the regulators of GLP-1 secretion in humans, and this new understanding may lead to new treatments for type 2 diabetes.

Beschrijving

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA:

    1. Age 21-55 (Age restriction is used to remove age as a confounding factor because (beta) cells function and insulin resistance tend to deteriorate with age and may affect GLP-1 and GIP levels.

    2. Screening laboratory evaluations with no clinically significant abnormal results (minor deviations from normal lab results will be at the discretion of the principal investigator):

      1. fasting comprehensive metabolic panel
