About this trial

A total of 30 subjects will be recruited 15 with intermediate hyperglycemia and 15 in the tyep 2 diabetes group respectively. Eligible participants will undergo hyperglycemic-clamp/oral glucose tolerance at baseline and after 4 weeks of dorzagliatin treatment.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Acute Insulin secretion

Acute (first phase) insulin response (AIRg) to glucose will be calculated as the mean incremental responses above baseline (average of -20 and -10 and 0 minutes) to the samples drawn at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 minutes of the hyperglycemic clamp.

Time frame
At baseline and after 4 weeks of study drug treatment

Secondary outcomes

1

Second phase insulin secretion

The mean incremental insulin levels between 60 to 90 minutes of hyperglycemic clamp

Time frame
At baseline and after 4 weeks of study drug treatment
2

Beta cell glucose sensitivity

Beta cell glucose sensitivity will be calculated as increment of insulin secretion in 60-90 minutes of the clamp minus basal insulin divided by glucose change in the same period

Time frame
At baseline and after 4 weeks of study drug treatment
3

Glucagon-like peptide -1 (GLP-1)

GLP-1 secretion Area under the curve (0-270 minute during hyperglyemic- OGTT clamp study)

Time frame
At baseline and after 4 weeks of study drug treatment
4

Glucagon

Glucagon area under the curve (0-270 minute) during hyperglyemic- OGTT clamp

Time frame
At baseline and after 4 weeks of study drug treatment
