Obesity Clinical Trial - CCK1R Function in Patient Leukocytes

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The type 1 cholecystokinin receptor (CCK1R) is a potential target for the treatment of obesity, due to the ability of this GI hormone to elicit satiety. However, this receptor has been shown to be sensitive to the cholesterol content of the membrane in which it is expressed. Because some patients who might be candidates for the use of CCK agonists to treat their obesity and co-morbidities, the goal of this study is to determine how metabolic abnormalities might affect the responsiveness of this receptor to CCK. Because the normal site mediating CCK-stimulated satiety is on vagal afferent neurons that cannot easily be studied, we will collect buffy coat cells from a peripheral blood sample from patients involved in the Sangre Por Salud Biobank at Mountain Park Medical Center. Ex vivo, the CCK1R will be expressed on these cells and will be functionally characterized, and the cholesterol content of the cells will be assayed. These data will be correlated with the clinical, biochemical, and metabolic phenotypic data collected as part of the parent study.

Clinical Trial Description

Subjects are volunteers who provide prospective informed consent to be entered into the Sangre Por Salud Biobank at Mountain Park Medical Center. These include men and women age 18-85 of Hispanic/Latino descent, who are not pregnant or have given birth in the previous 12 months, or who are nursing, and who have not been diagnosed with cancer in the previous three years. Two groups of patients are included, representing those who have not been diagnosed as having diabetes, and those with diabetes. Subjects undergo entry physical examination and standard metabolic phenotyping, with the non-diabetics also undergoing a 2-hour glucose tolerance test. Blood samples are also banked and available for other studies, such as the one now being described.

For the current study, 5 ml of blood will be coded and delivered in an anonymized form. Buffy coat cells will be isolated and infected ex vivo with a viral construct including the wild type CCK1R tagged with a fluorescent tag. Cells will be placed in culture overnight and harvested for quantitation of receptor expression and determination of CCK responsiveness and cholesterol content. These data will be correlated with selected relevant clinical, biochemical, and morphometric data. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
