Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention relates to methods of treating and ameliorating congenital and neonatal hyperinsulinism and post-prandial hypoglycemia, comprising the step of administering an antagonist of the Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-I) receptor, e.g. a GLP-I fragment or analogue thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of treating a subject with post-prandial hypoglycemia, comprising the step of subcutaneously administering to said subject an antagonist of the Glucagon Like Peptide-1(GLP-1) receptor, wherein said GLP-1-antagonist is a peptide, wherein the amino acid sequence of the peptide is the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, and wherein said post-prandial hypoglycemia is associated with a gastric surgery. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said post-prandial hypoglycemia is associated with a Nissen fundoplication. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said post-prandial hypoglycemia is associated with a gastric-bypass surgery. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a pediatric subject. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antagonist is administered at a dosage from 20 nmol/kg/day to 2000 nmol/kg/day. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antagonist is administered at a dosage from 20 nmol/kg/day to 300 nmol/kg/day. 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antagonist is administered at a dosage of 100 nmol/kg/day. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antagonist is administered at a dosage of 200 nmol/kg/day. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antagonist is administered at a dosage of 300 nmol/kg/day.
