Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To study the pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen and metabolites in morbidly obese patients and compare with normal weight patients.;Secondary Objective: - To compare the pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen and metabolites in morbidly obese patients at the time of bariatric surgery and 0.5 – 2 year after bariatric surgery. - To compare the safety of acetaminophen in morbidly obese patients with normal weight patients. - Assess the influence of both demographic (age, sex) and physiologic covariates (body weight, insulin resistance, lipid levels and inflammation markers) on acetaminophen pharmacokinetics. - To evaluate the metabolomic profile in morbidly obese patients and normal weight patients. ;Primary end point(s): Clearance (total, glucuronidation, sulphation, CYP2E1 oxidation and unchanged) and volume of distribution of acetaminophen in morbidly obese patients in comparison with normal weight patients.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Around bariatric surgery for the morbidly obese patients and around general surgery for the normal weight patients. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Difference in clearance (total, glucuronidation, sulphation, CYP2E1 oxidation) and volume of distribution of acetaminophen in morbidly obese patients at the time of bariatric surgery and at 0.5 – 2 year after bariatric surgery. - Liver function tests (ASAT, ALAT, prothrombin time, gamma- GT, bilirubin, creatinine and albumin) in morbidly obese patients in comparison with normal weight patients. Other endpoints that will be measured: - Total body weight, length and fat (free) mass - Insulin resistance: homa IR (fasting insulin and glucose levels) - Lipid levels: free fatty acids, triglycerides, cholesterol - Inflammation markers: TNF-alfa, IL-6, leptin, adiponectin and CRP - Metabolomic profile ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the time of bariatric surgery and 0.5-2 years after bariatric surgery At the time of general surgery for the normal weight patients. | — |
