Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate the effects of the GLP-1 receptor agonist Liraglutide 6.0 mg/mL, 3.0 mL pre-filled pen-injector (Victoza®) vs. Liraglutide placebo, 3.0 mL pre-filled pen-injector in psychiatric patient in treatment with clozapine or olanzapine.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives include changes of dysglycaemia (impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), combined IFG/IGT or diabetes), changes in body weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, secretion of incretin hormones, insulin sensitivity and beta cell function, evaluated by homeostatic model assessment (HOMA), DEXA scanning (body composition), lipid profile, liver function, dietary, exercise records and measures of psychopathology, alchohol use and quality of life. Identify differences in risk factors for diabetes between healthy controls and the participants. Also proteomic fingerprinting will be preformed. Furtermore, patients who have been included in the trial, will be approached 52 weeks after end of participation, in order to evaluate whether or not there is a long-term effect of the intervention in regrads to weight and metabolic disturbances. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the change in glucose tolerance from baseline (measured by area under the curve (AUC) for the plasma glucose (PG) excursion following a 4-hour 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)) to follow up at week 16 or to last observation if study participation is stopped earlier.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 16 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary end points include changes of dysglycaemia (impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), combined IFG/IGT or diabetes), changes in body weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, secretion of incretin hormones, insulin sensitivity and beta cell function, evaluated by homeostatic model assessment (HOMA), DEXA scanning (body composition), lipid profile, liver function, dietary, exercise records and measures of psychopathology, alchohol use and quality of life. Identify differences in risk factors for diabetes between healthy controls and the participants. Also proteomic fingerprinting will be preformed. Furthermore, patients who have been included in the trial, will be approached 52 weeks after end of participation, in order to evaluate whether or not there is a long-term effect of the intervention in regards to weight and metabolic disturbances. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 16 weeks and 1 year
