    Pharmacogenetics of Ace Inhibitor-Associated Angioedema

    NCT01413542

    Nov 2011 to Jul 2014

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

The investigators would like to find out if sitagliptin (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 or DPP4 inhibition), a drug to treat diabetes, affects blood vessel relaxation in healthy people receiving enalapril (angiotensin converting enzyme or ACE inhibition), a blood pressure medicine. Understanding how these drugs interact in healthy people will help us learn their potential effects in people who have diabetes.

Interventions

  • Sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibitor)Drug
  • Substance P,Drug
  • bradykininDrug
  • enalaprilat (ACE inhibitor)Drug
  • Glucagon-like peptide 1Drug
  • brain natriuretic peptideDrug

Arms4

  • Placebo comparator

    Placebo then sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) group 1

    The effect of vehicle and enalaprilat on the forearm blood flow and t-PA responses to bradykinin and substance P are studied after administration of placebo or sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition).

  • Placebo comparator

    Sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) then placebo group 1

    The effect of vehicle and enalaprilat (ACE inhibition) on the forearm blood flow and t-PA responses to substance P and bradykinin are studied after administration of sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) or placebo

  • Placebo comparator

    Placebo then sitagliptin group 2

    The effect of vehicle and enalaprilat (ACE inhibition) on the forearm blood flow and t-PA responses to glucagon-like peptide-1 and brain natriuretic pepdie are studied after administration of placebo or sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition).

  • Placebo comparator

    Sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) then comparator group 2

    The effect of vehicle and enalaprilat on the forearm blood flow and t-PA responses to glucagon-like peptide and brain natriuretic peptide are studied after administration of placebo or sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition).

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. The Effect of Enalaprilat (ACE Inhibition), Sitagliptin (DPP4 Inhibition), or the Combination on the Vasodilator Response (Forearm Blood Flow) to Substance P (SP) and Bradykinin (Group 1) or Glucagon Like Peptide-1 and Brain Naturetic Peptide (Group 2).

    Time frame · 60 minutes post-placebo or sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) and over last 2 minutes of each 5 min infusion per peptide dose (30 min washout between peptides); sequence repeated with enalaprilat (ACE inhibition) or vehicle

    Registry description

    Forearm blood flow (FBF) was measured by strain gauge plethysmography at the completion of each dose of intra-arterial peptide. A dose response curve was therefore constructed for each vasoactive peptide substrate. The effect of sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) vs. placebo and enalaprilat (ACE inhibition) vs. vehicle on the forearm blood flow response to each peptide could then be determined.

Secondary outcomes(4)
  1. Assess Tissue Type Plasminogen Activator (tPA) Release

    Time frame · Blood for analysis of tPA release was obtained 60 minutes after sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) vs. placebo and after each assessment of FBF (see primary outcome measure)

    Registry description

    Following measurement of FBF, samples will be obtained to determine the effect of ACE inhibition and/or DPP4 inhibition on tPA release in response to bradykinin and substance P (SP) (group 1)

  2. Assess Effect of ACE and/or DPP4 Inhibition on Heart Rate Response to Substance P (SP)

    Time frame · Heart rate was measured every 5 minutes throughout the study day (and thus during each dose of peptide infusion)

  3. Effect of Treatment (ACE or DPP4 Inhibition, or Combined) on Norepinephrine (NE) Release (Arterial Venous Gradient) in Response to Substance P (SP)

    Time frame · Blood for analysis of norepinephrine (NE) release was obtained 60 minutes after sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) vs. placebo and after each assessment of FBF (see primary outcome measure)

  4. Effect of Treatment (DPP4 Inhibition vs. Placebo) on Venous GLP-1 Levels in Response to Arterial GLP-1 Infusion

    Time frame · Blood for analysis of GLP-1 levels was obtained one hour after sitagliptin (DPP4 inhibition) vs. placebo administration and after each dose of GLP-1
