Clinical Trial Summary

The obesity epidemic is attributable to dietary and behavioral trends acting on a person's genetic makeup to determine body mass and susceptibility to obesity-related diseases. Furthermore, common forms of obesity have a strong hereditary component and many genetic pathways that contribute to obesity have already ben identified.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone that potentiates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. However, GLP-1 also acts as an appetite-inhibiting hormone affecting the appetite center in the hypothalamus. Today, GLP-1 receptor agonists are available for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, and their treatment potential in obesity is an area of active research.

The aim of this study is to explore if the appetite inhibiting effect of GLP-1 is intact in people diagnosed with obesity causing genetic disorders and to investigate the physiological role of GLP-1 on food intake and appetite regulation in this group.


Clinical Trial Description

- Exploration of the physiological role of GLP-1 concerning food intake and appetite regulation in obese adults diagnosed with obesity related genetic disorders.

- Assessment of the effect of GLP-1 on body composition, bone mineral density, energy expenditure, cardiac function, glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, lipid concentrations and neuroendocrine function.

- Assessment of the impact of the leptin induced adaptive thermogenesis response in the weight reduced study participants.

- Investigating the alteration of the composition of gut bacteria as well as subjective ratings of satiety and hunger before after supplement with GLP-1. ;
