|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to determine whether blocking interleukin-1 by recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) improves beta-cell function in subjects with impaired beta-cell function .;Secondary Objective: Secondary Objective(s): • To determine the effect of IL-1 blockade on insulin sensitivity following four week treatment with anakinra and placebo • To determine the effect of IL-1 blockade on fat cell morphology, fat cell insulin sensitivity and fat cell gene expression following four week treatment with anakinra and placebo. • To determine the effect of IL-1 blockade on plasma levels of inflammatory markers and adipokines following four week treatment with anakinra and placebo. ;Primary end point(s): Insulin secretion | — |
