A Study That Will Evaluate Ketogenesis and Glucose-Dependent Insulin Secretion Methodologies in Healthy Male Subjects (MK-0000-159)(COMPLETED)

Summary

This study will test the hypotheses that a single dose of oxyntomodulin (OXM) will be neutral or better than placebo in lowering ambient glucose levels during a graded glucose infusion (GGI) and that a single dose of OXM will lead to a statistically significant increase in the sum of the plasma βOHB + AcAc levels compared to placebo.
