Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate safety parameters in patients with T2D and no or severely reduced kidney function treated with the antidiabetig drug liraglutide. Plasma concentrations of liraglutide and side effects will be closely monitored during intervention. Results will be compared with a group of patients with T2D and normal kidney function.;Secondary Objective: To investigate efficacy parameters in patients with diabetes and no or severely reduced kidney function treated with the antidiabetig drug liraglutide. Regulation of blood glucose, weight and cardiovascular parameters will be monitored.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the trough concentrations of liraglutide over time. It will be compared between patients with normal kidney function and patients in dialysis to evaluate the level of accumulation of liraglutide in patients undergoing dialysis treatment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Evaluation of the primary endpoint is expected after LPLV, ie ultimo 2013

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): PD parameters: - Postprandial plasma glucose, assessed by mean and peak PG values and AUC during a standard 4-hour meal test before and after intervention (optionel to dialysis patients). - HbA1c, FPG; Body weight, Beta-cell surrogate markers, lipids, and other cardiovascular risk markers (ProBNP, CRP, vWF). Safety of liraglutide will be evaluated by registration of - AE´s - Hypoglycaemic events divided into minor (BG<3.1 mM, and no need for assistance) or major (requiring assistance from third person). Registered by measurements from the CONTOUR® USB apparatus and questioning during trial visits. The comparison of safety parameters will be performed both between active vs. placebo group of renal impaired patients, as well as between the two active liraglutide groups. - Plasma concentration of liraglutide pre-, per- and post dialysis treatment (PD and HD). - Concentration of liraglutide in dialysis fluid (PD and HD). Other secondary endpoints - Glycaemic control (assessed from 24-hour glucose profile, daily blood glucose measurements and HbA1c before, during and after intervention). - Pancreatic beta-cell function (assessed from results of meal test before and after intervention and/or proinsulin-insulin ratio). - Liver- and kidney function and homeostasis (blood samples before and after intervention) - Cardiovascular parameters: Blood pressure, ECG, lipid profile and proBNP before and after intervention - Markers of inflammation and endothelial function: vWF, CRP - Insulin dose among participants treated with insulin at start of intervention - Dose of oral antidiabetics among participants treated with oral antidiabetics at start of intervention - Weight ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Evaluation of the secondary endpoints is expected after LPLV, ie ultimo 2013
