Effect of Glucagon and Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Co-agonism on Cardiac Function and Metabolism in Overweight Participants with Type 2 Diabetes

NCT04307797

RandomizedSingle-groupSingle-blindBasic science

Summary

The study seeks to explore the cardiovascular effects of co-agonism at the glucagon and (glucagon-like peptide-1) GLP-1 receptor. Glucagon and exenatide will be intravenously infused into participants with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Overall, the aim of the study is to further the investigator's understanding on the role these endogenous substances have on normal cardiac physiology, myocardial energetics and myocardial glucose uptake through a series of PET and MRI imaging studies
