Official title
Role of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 in Postprandial Hypoglycemia After Nissen Fundoplication: Studies With the GLP-1 Receptor Antagonist Exendin-(9-39)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
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.
