Study information

Study designNon-randomised open label placebo controlled crossover group trial
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designNon randomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeOther
Scientific title
Study acronymFIOS: Fatty acid Induced Oxidative Stress
Study hypothesisElevated levels of Free Fatty Acids during fasting induce oxidative stress and cause insulin resistance to maintain euglycemia.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
ConditionNo condition, healthy person
InterventionSubjects will undergo a period of fasting and are assigned to receive either acipimox (inhibitor lipilysis) 250 mg 4dd or placebo. Hereafter insulin sensitivity will be measured using stable isotope technique. Furthermore regulating hormones and lipids will be measured. Muscle specimens (v. lateralis) will be obtained for determination of intramyocellular lipids and transcription factors.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)acipimox
Primary outcome measureInsulin resistance, Free fatty acids and oxidative stress with and without acipimox.
Secondary outcome measuresOther measures of glucosehomeostasis: glucoregulatory hormones, (adipo)cytokines.
