Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Dietary weight loss at 25% energy deficit

Experimental: Normal glucose tolerant - Weight loss attained by 25% caloric restriction.

This arm will be both a glycemic and time control. Initially they will undergo a 4-month weight maintenance phase (acting as time control), followed by 4 month weight loss.

Experimental: Impaired glucose tolerant - Weight loss using 25% caloric restriction.

Impaired glucose tolerant subjects will undergo 4 months weight loss (25% caloric deficit) followed by 3 months weight loss maintenance

Experimental: Type 2 diabetic hyperinsulinemic - Weight loss using 25% caloric restriction.

This group will undergo 4 months weight loss (25% caloric deficit) followed by 3 months weight loss maintenance

Experimental: Type 2 diabetic hypoinsulinemic - Weight loss via 25% caloric restriction.

This group will undergo 4 months weight loss (25% caloric deficit) followed by 3 months weight loss maintenance


Other interventions: Dietary weight loss at 25% energy deficit
Dietary weight loss at 25% energy deficit. Dietary macronutrient content will comprise 25% protein, 30% fat and 45% carbohydrate.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Men and postmenopausal women (n=120), untreated, weight-stable, non-smoking, aged 45-65 years, BMI 27-45 kg/m2, will be recruited. Glucose tolerance status will be determined by a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), using WHO criteria (53): normal glucose tolerance, fasting plasma glucose < 7.0 mmol/L and 2-h plasma glucose < 7.8 mmol/L; IGT, fasting plasma glucose < 7.0 mmol/L and 2-h plasma glucose > 7.8 and < 11.1 mmol/L; T2D, fasting plasma glucose > 7.0 mmol/L or 2-h plasma glucose > 11.1 mmol/L. Hyper-insulinemia will be defined as an insulin area under the curve during OGTT > 8000 mU/L · min-1 and hypo-insulinemia as < 8000 mU/L · min-1.
Minimum age
45 Years
Maximum age
65 Years
Sex

Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
Prior history of cardiovascular disease (previous myocardial infarction, angina, stroke, heart failure, secondary hypertension), renal (serum creatinine >0.12 mmol/L or estimated GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2) or hepatic disease or diseases which may affect measured parameters (e.g. thyroid disease); severe hypertension; a history of surgical weight loss; CPAP therapy; and >4 alcoholic drinks/day. T2D individuals with moderate hyperglycemia (HbA1c >9%) will be excluded so that hypoglycaemic pharmacotherapy may be instituted (54). Participants will be sought through newspaper advertising and poster displays in primary health care centres (General Practices). Newly diagnosed T2D subjects
