COMPLETED
Role of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 in Postprandial Hypoglycemia
Description

It has been proposed that the rapid gastric emptying of carbohydrate containing fluids into the intestine causes hyperglycemia followed by reactive hypoglycemia. The investigators have shown that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion in response to a glucose load is increased in children with Post-prandial hypoglycemia (PPH). This is a proof of concept study to investigate the causative role of GLP-1 in the pathophysiology of PPH after fundoplication by evaluating the effects of GLP-1 receptor antagonism on metabolic variables after a mixed meal. Hypothesis: In children with post-prandial hypoglycemia after fundoplication, antagonism of the GLP-1 receptor by exendin-(9-39) will elevate nadir blood glucose levels after a meal challenge and prevent post-prandial hypoglycemia.

Improving Post-Prandial Blood Glucose Control With Afrezza During Closed-Loop Therapy
Description

The study will be conducted in two phases; an in-patient meal study phase (Phase I) and an outpatient home study (Phase II). The two phase study design is chosen to enhance safety by testing the Afrezza Closed-Loop (CL) system in controlled in-clinic setting under study staff supervision before it could be investigated at the outpatient home setting. Phase II will not begin without the establishment of safety in Phase I.

COMPLETED
Evaluating Exenatide for the Treatment of Postprandial Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia
Description

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of exenatide in adults experiencing episodes of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia following Roux-en-Y bariatric surgery.

COMPLETED
Effect of Mizagliflozin on Postprandial Glucose and Insulin in Post-Bariatric Hypoglycemia Subjects
Description

This clinical study will examine the safety and tolerability, as well as the effects of orally administered mizagliflozin on post prandial glucose and insulin levels in subjects diagnosed with post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH).

Effect of Mizagliflozin Repeat Dosing on Adverse Events and Postprandial Glucose Excursions
Description

This is a phase 2 crossover, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, repeat dose study in PBH subjects to determine the effect of mizagliflozin on adverse events and postprandial glucose excursions.

COMPLETED
Study Comparing Prandial Insulin Aspart vs. Technosphere Insulin in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes on Multiple Daily Injections: Investigator-Initiated A Real-life Pilot Study-STAT Study
Description

This is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, multicenter, parallel, open-label, pilot clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of TI for PPBG, PPGE, and time-in-range on CGM download in patients with T1D. TI is an inhaled ultra-rapid-acting insulin, approved by the FDA for use in patients with diabetes. This is a pilot, real-life study where patients will continue their routine diabetes care and use post-meal correction dosages as deemed necessary for normalizing PPBG as per the protocol. This multi-center study will enroll 60 patients with T1D, A1c values between 6.5 to 10%. The patients will be randomized in 1:1 fashion to either TI or NL. Patients who are randomized into the NL arm will continue using their usual prandial insulin dose before meals. Patients who are randomized into the TI arm will be instructed to dose before the meals and take necessary corrections at 1- and 2-hours after meals to optimize PPBG (Table 1B). There will be a total of 7 study visits (screening visit, randomization visit, 2 clinic, and 3 phone visits). There will be a 4-week treatment comparison between TI and NL and 1-week of post-study follow up. (Phone visit; Figure-1). Standard lab tests (A1c, complete metabolic panel {CMP}, complete blood count {CBC}) will be performed at the screening visit. All patients will use real-time CGM (Dexcom G5®, San Diego, CA), which will be provided at the randomization visit for their day-to-day diabetes care. CGM data will be downloaded at every clinic visit on a secured computer. The data will be analyzed after the study for different primary and secondary end points. All patients will be allowed to keep the CGM after the study is over for their day-to-day diabetes care.
