Brief summary
Glucose ACCES study will explore the acute and long term (12-week treatment) effects of saxagliptin in patients with impaired glucose tolerance during fasting and after a standardised breakfast. The investigations will be performed on: * glycemic parameters * on cardiovascular parameters
Detailed description
The aim of this pilot study is to compare in patients with impaired glucose tolerance the effects of saxagliptin versus placebo: (i) on glucose metabolism (ii) on vago-sympathetic activity, arterial stiffness and endothelial function. A total of 36 patients will be recruited in the department of Endocrinology-Diabetology-Nutrition of Jean VERDIER hospital, AP-HP, Bondy, France. The measurements will be performed in the morning 1) at the time of randomisation (Acute ACCES study) and 2) 11-14 weeks after the beginning of saxagliptin or placebo (Chronic ACCES study). We will evaluate at fasting and each hour after a standardized breakfast: (i) biological and metabolic parameters. Furthermore, an oral glucose tolerance test will be performed at the end of the study. (ii) by non-invasive devices arterial stiffness (Sphygmocor®), endothelial function (ENDOPAT 2000® ), cutaneous microcirculation (laser doppler Perimed ®.PF 5010) and cardiac autonomic function(task force monitor®).
