Filter by:Incretinomimetics and inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) are new treatments for diabetes. Previous retrospective studies have shown that these treatments induced an increase in pancreatic mass with potentially a risk for pancreatitis and development of precancerous lesions. The aim of our study is to provide a better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of increased volume and / or pancreatic exocrine secretion when exposed to certain treatment of type 2 diabetes.
This is an open-label multicenter, phase 1-2 study.
