Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of exendin-(9-39) on fasting blood glucose and protein induced hypoglycemia on subjects with Congenital Hyperinsulinism. Funding Source - FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OODP).
Detailed description
This is a placebo controlled study with randomized crossover design to evaluate the effect of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor antagonist, exendin-(9-39), on fasting blood glucose levels, protein-induced hypoglycemia, and fasting tolerance of subjects with congenital hyperinsulinism due to mutations in the ATP- sensitive potassium channel (KATP) channel.
Interventions

Intervention model description
In a random crossover design, subjects were assigned to either intervention (6 hour infusion of exendin( 9-39) at a dose range of 100-500pmol/kg/min) or vehicle (6hr infusion of 0.9%NaCl)
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Confirmed diagnosis of hyperinsulinism * Mutation analysis results demonstrating KATP channel defect * Age 6 months to 18 years with * Persistent hypoglycemia
Exclusion criteria
* Current therapy with medications that may affect glucose metabolism such as octreotide, diazoxide, high dose glucocorticoids, adrenergic agents, etc. Subjects will be eligible to participate if the last dose of octreotide is given 48 hrs before study day 1 and the last dose of diazoxide is given 72 hours before study day 1 * Evidence of a medical condition that might alter results or compromised the elimination of the peptide, including active infection, kidney failure, severe liver dysfunction, severe respiratory or cardiac failure * Pregnancy * Subjects with milk protein allergy will be excluded for participating in studies involving protein tolerance test

Recruitment details
Subjects age 6months to 18 years with congenital hyperinsulinism due to mutations in the Katp channel( KatpHI) were recruited from the Hyperinsulinism Center at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Pre-assignment details
17 subject were enrolled (consented). One(1) withdrawn
Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| Subject Population 9 subjects were randomized to the vehicle first arm and the next day they were switched to exendin- (9-39). 7 subjects were randomized to the exendin-(9-39) first arm and the next day they were switched to vehicle. All subjects enrolled and treated in the protocol served as their own control. Because of this and the small sample size, baseline characteristic data is presented together. | 16 |
