TOTUM-63, a plant-based polyphenol-rich extract, improves glycaemic control in subjects with prediabetes or early stage newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The plant-based polyphenol-rich extract TOTUM-63 improves glucose homeostasis in various preclinical models of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). A pilot exploratory study showed that TOTUM-63 has good safety and tolerability profiles, and beneficial effects on postprandial glucose control in healthy individuals with overweight. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of TOTUM-63 on glycaemic control in individuals with prediabetes or early stage newly-diagnosed T2D (which does not require pharmacological treatment).

Materials and methods

This study was a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Individuals with prediabetes or early stage newly-diagnosed T2D and with overweight/abdominal obesity received TOTUM-63 (5 g/day) or placebo for 6 months. The primary outcome was the change in fasting blood glucose.

Results

Fifty-one participants (age: 57.1 ± 10 years; body mass index: 31.3 ± 5.7 kg.m² ; 35 women and 16 men) completed the study (n = 38 TOTUM-63, n = 13 placebo). After 6 months, blood glucose concentration after fasting and after the 2-h oral glucose tolerance test was reduced in the TOTUM-63-treated group compared with the placebo group (placebo-corrected difference between baseline and month 6: -0.71 mmol/L, p < .05, and -1.93 mmol/L, p < .05, respectively). TOTUM-63 was safe and well tolerated and significantly reduced body weight gain (-1.9 kg; p < .05), waist circumference (-4.5 cm; p < .001), circulating triglycerides (-0.54 mmol/L; p < .01) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (-0.38 mmol/L; p < .05) compared with placebo.

Conclusions

TOTUM-63 lowered fasting blood glucose in participants with impaired fasting glycaemia and glucose intolerance. Moreover, TOTUM-63 showed a good safety and tolerability profile and improved several metabolic syndrome features. Therefore, TOTUM-63 is a promising candidate for T2D prevention.

Project description:Global prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is rising and may affect 700 million people by 2045. Totum-63 is a polyphenol-rich natural composition developed to reduce the risk of T2D. We first investigated the effects of Totum-63 supplementation in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice for up to 16 wk and thereafter assessed its safety and efficacy (2.5 g or 5 g per day) in 14 overweight men [mean age 51.5 yr, body mass index (BMI) 27.6 kg·m-2] for 4 wk. In HFD-fed mice, Totum-63 reduced body weight and fat mass gain, whereas lean mass was unchanged. Moreover, fecal energy excretion was higher in Totum-63-supplemented mice, suggesting a reduction of calorie absorption in the digestive tract. In the gut, metagenomic analyses of fecal microbiota revealed a partial restoration of HFD-induced microbial imbalance, as shown by principal coordinate analysis of microbiota composition. HFD-induced increase in HOMA-IR score was delayed in supplemented mice, and insulin response to an oral glucose tolerance test was significantly reduced, suggesting that Totum-63 may prevent HFD-related impairments in glucose homeostasis. Interestingly, these improvements could be linked to restored insulin signaling in subcutaneous adipose tissue and soleus muscle. In the liver, HFD-induced steatosis was reduced by 40% (as shown by triglyceride content). In the subsequent study in men, Totum-63 (5 g·day-1) improved glucose and insulin responses to a high-carbohydrate breakfast test (84% kcal carbohydrates). It was well tolerated, with no clinically significant adverse events reported. Collectively, these data suggest that Totum-63 could improve glucose homeostasis in both HFD-fed mice and overweight individuals, presumably through a multitargeted action on different metabolic organs.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Totum-63 is a novel polyphenol-rich natural composition developed to reduce the risk of T2D. Totum-63 showed beneficial effects on glucose homeostasis in HFD-fed mice, presumably through a multitargeted action on different metabolic organs. Totum-63 was well tolerated in humans and improved postprandial glucose and insulin responses to a high-carbohydrate breakfast test.
