Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp Protocol

Metabolic Cardiovascular Syndrome Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase 2A, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of TRC150094 in Increasing Insulin Sensitivity in Male Patients With Increased Cardiometabolic Risk

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of TRC150094 in male patients with cardiometabolic risk. Cardiometabolic risk which is the overall risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes resulting from the presence of hypertension, HDL cholesterol, insulin resistance, dysglycemia and visceral obesity.

Clinical Trial Description

20 Subjects will be enrolled in Veeda Clinical research,India and another 20 subjects at Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The maximum duration of participation in the study for each subject will be 9.5 weeks including a less than or equal to 4 weeks screening period, 4 weeks of treatment and a 10 days post treatment follow-up evaluation period.

At each study site, 20 subjects will be enrolled. Each subject will attend the study centre in a fasting state, for a screening visit, 2 study visits (one baseline and one end of treatment), 1 intermediate safety visit and 1 post-study follow-up visit (Total 5 visits). The subjects at each site will be randomized to receive TRC150094 or placebo in a ratio of 1:1. 50 mg dose will be administered once daily (morning) under fasting conditions. Dosing will take place daily on Days 1-28. Subjects will arrive at the study centre for screening visit. Physical examination, vital signs, safety biochemistry and laboratory investigations for verification of inclusion/ exclusion criteria will be performed during screening visit. Subjects meeting all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria and who have given their informed consent for the study will be asked to come for the study on Day 0 (or day -1 if required). Baseline investigations (including baseline clamp procedure and hepatic MRS) will be done on Day 0 (or day -1). Subjects will receive properly labelled bottle containing either Active treatment or Placebo as per the randomization number of the subject. ;
