The Problem • Insulin resistance is a major risk factor in the development of type-2 Diabetes and cardiovascular disease • Early and regular monitoring is crucial to assess effects of intervention • Accurate assessment is difficult and stressful with current methods
CLAMP 3-6 hours IVGTT 2-4 hours STRESS + LENGTH + COST GOAL FOR NEW TEST HOMA 10 mins ACCURACY Current methods Can we be accurate, yet simple and short??
glucose Glucose profile 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 Concept • Short, simple, no steady state necessary (30-60 min) • Physiological doses of glucose+insulin • Measure glucose, insulin, C-peptide • Fit model to data • Determine SI from model • Physiological model necessary! Glucose Insulin

Model validation on ‘gold-standard’ clamp test • High correlations at steady and transient states steady transient r=0.98
Test simulation • Simulated population from clamp data (N=195) • Correlation r=0.93 between model SI and clamp ISI during 40 minute transient test • Model captures dynamics of insulin and glucose within measurement error • Low, physiological dosing • Increased safety and accuracy
Conclusions • Simple model-based dose response test to assess insulin resistance • Physiological dosing, short duration, cost efficient, yet highly accurate! • Simulation results correlate r=0.93 with ‘gold standard’ clamp test • Potential for application in a clinical setting
