    GLP-2 Biopsy

    NCT03442972

    17 Jan 2019 to 1 Dec 2021

Registry summary

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

Some of the fat (triglyceride) from the food humans eat gets stored in the bowel. This triglyceride can then be released into the blood when another meal is consumed or in response to hormones. How the gut hormone glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) releases the triglyceride from the gut is not known. The research team in this study is interested in finding out how teduglutide (a degradation resistant form of GLP-2) releases stored triglyceride from the gut by studying samples from patients undergoing endoscopy and small bowel biopsy.
