Abstrakt: Combined halofenate-chlorpropamide was evaluated for the treatment of NIDDM. Four subjects treated with 500 mg/day chlorpropamide were given 500-1000 mg halofenate daily for 48 wk or longer. Fasting plasma glucose fell from 210 +/- 16 (+/- SEM) (11.67 +/- 0.89 mM) to 107 +/- 10 mg/dl (+/- SEM) (5.94 +/- 0.55 mM), P less than 0.005. Twelve additional subjects were entered into a 16-wk double-blind study testing chlorpropamide plus either placebo or halofenate. In the halofenate group, the mean fasting glucose fell from 227 +/- 27 (+/- SEM) (12.61 +/- 1.50 mM) and reached 107 +/- 19 mg/dl (+/- SEM) (5.94 +/- 1.06 mM) during the fourth month, whereas the placebo groups showed a decrease from 242 +/- 22 (+/- SEM) to 208 +/- 29 mg/dl (+/- SEM) (P less than 0.005). In addition, halofenate reduced the height of postprandial glycemic excursions by lowering fasting plasma glucose. When halofenate was used as the only therapy, reduction in fasting plasma glucose was small [179 +/- 12 reduced to 142 +/- 8 mg/dl (+/- SEM); 9.94 +/- 0.67 mM and 7.89 +/- 0.44 mM], P less than 0.05.
