Prediabetic State
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal is to investigate the 180 min postprandial response on blood glucose and insulin levels after intake of Pep2Dia® in two different dosages compared to placebo in the context of a meal challenge test, providing 75 g of carbohydrates. Pep2Dia® will be administered 15 min prior to a standardized challenge meal.
Detailed description
From a previous pilot study (BTS1130/17) there is first evidence that the native whey product with alpha-glucosidase inhibiting properties (Pep2Dia®) has the potential to modulate postprandial hyperglycaemia in prediabetic subjects. Thereby, incremental areas under the curve (iAUC) of glucose as the primary outcome were significantly reduced by a single dosage of 1400 mg Pep2Dia® compared to placebo the second study is to investigate the 180 min postprandial response on blood glucose and insulin levels after intake of Pep2Dia® in two different dosages compared to placebo in the context of a meal challenge test, providing 75 g of carbohydrates. Pep2Dia® will be administered 15 min prior to a standardized challenge meal. Furthermore, the 120 min postprandial incretin response in terms of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) will be determined. Changes in insulin sensitivity will be determined by the Matsuda-index as appropriate outcome measure.

Intervention model description
The study will be performed as a multicentric, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled in a 3-way cross-over design.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male and female subjects (minimum one third of each gender) with prediabetic HbA1c values between 5.7% - 6.4% and/or fasting glucose ≥ 5.6 mmol/L (≥ 100 mg/dL) and \< 7.0 mmol/L (\< 125 mg/dL) (in venous plasma) (twice confirmed at two independent days if HbA1c is \< 5.7%) * Body mass index 19-35 kg/m2 * Non-smoker * Caucasian * Availability and presence in the study units for approx. 3.5 hours/ week for 3 times. * Signed informed consent form * No changes in food habits or physical activity 3 months prior to screening and during the study
Exclusion criteria
* Presence of disease or drug(s) influencing digestion and absorption of nutrients or bowel habits * Intake of medications known to affect glucose tolerance, e.g., diabetic medication, steroids, protease inhibitors or antipsychotics * Diagnosed Typ 2-Diabetics with medical treatment * Chronic intake of substances affecting blood coagulation (e.g. acetylic acid (100 mg as standard prophylactic treatment allowed when dose is stable 1 month prior to screening), anticoagulants, diuretics, thiazides (diuretics and thiazides allowed e.g. for hypertension treatment when dose is stable 1 month prior to screening)), which in the Investigator's opinion would impact patient safety * Severe liver, renal or cardiac disease * Acute gastrointestinal diseases including diarrhea and/or vomiting within the last 2 weeks * Known inflammatory and malignant gastrointestinal diseases (i.e. colitis ulcerosa, Morbus Crohn, celiac disease, malignant diseases e.g. colon-cancer, rectum cancer, pancreatitis) * Clinically relevant findings as established by medical history, physical examination, clinical laboratory and/or vital signs * Major medical or surgical event requiring hospitalization within the previous 3 months * Intake of antibiotics within 4 weeks before the test days * Known alcohol abuse or drug abuse * Pregnant or breast feeding women * Known or suspected allergy to any component of the investigational product(s) (e.g. milk protein) * Known HIV-infection * Known acute or chronic hepatitis B and C infection * Blood donation within 4 weeks prior to visit 1 or during the study * Subject unable to co-operate adequately

| Glucose-iAUC(0-180min) | Day 1, Day 15, Day 29 | Area under the curve calculated as the incremental area under the blood glucose response curve, ignoring the area beneath the fasting concentration (according to ISO 26642:2010(E) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Max_increase | Day 1, Day 15, Day 29 | Cmax minus baseline value |
| Tmax | Day 1, Day 15, Day 29 | Time to reach maximum blood glucose concentration |
