Ketones, Muscle Metabolism, and SGLT2 Inhibitors - Protocol 1.
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Beta-hydroxy-butyrate for Heart Failure and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Completed, enrolled 41 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
To examine the effect of an increase in plasma beta-hydroxy-butyrate (B-OH-B) levels, spanning the physiologic and pharmacologic range (+0.5, +2.0, and +5.0 mmol/L), on: (i) parameters of left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic function utilizing cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and (ii) myocardial glucose uptake using positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose in type 2 diabetic patients with Class II-III New York Heart Association (NYHA).

Timeline
Interventions
Following completion of the baseline MRI and blood samples, subjects will be divided into three groups (26 subjects per group). Each group will receive a 6-hour (3-hour in group III) prime-continuous infusion of racemic B-OH-B (100 mg/mL solution; pH adjusted to 7.4) to increase the plasma B-OH-B concentration by 0.5, 2.0, and 5.0 mmol/L. GROUP I: Prime = 0.4 mg/kg.min for 20 minutes and constant rate = 0.2 mg/kg.min until study end GROUP II: Prime = 1.5 mg/kg.min for 20 minutes and constant rate = 0.75 mg/kg.min until study end GROUP III: Prime = 4.0 mg/kg.min for 20 minutes and constant rate = 2.0 mg/kg.min until study end
