Type-1 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
study hypothesis: treatment with GLP-1 and/or GIP is able to potentiate the maximal stimulated insulin secretion even in c-peptide negative type-1 diabetic patients classified as having no residual beta cell function left.
Interventions
continuous infusion 1,2 pmol pr. kg pr minute at 120 minutes
infusion with NaCl for 120 minutes as placebo-arm
continuous infusion with GIP-1 (3,6pmol/kg/min) at 120 minutes.
