The Revitalize-1 Study will look at a potential procedure called duodenal mucosal resurfacing (DMR). The DMR procedure acts on the first layer (mucosa) of the duodenum (the part of the small intestine located immediately after the stomach). By removing an excess layer, the treatment may improve blood sugar control. This treatment may eliminate or reduce the need for insulin injections in the future for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes.

In recent years, diabetes has emerged as one of the most significant co-diseases that many Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients develop. Type 1 (T1D) and Type 2 (T2D) diabetes results when either the body does not make enough insulin or the body does not respond correctly to this insulin, respectively. Insulin is a hormone which is made by cells in the pancreas and helps carry glucose (sugar) from the food we eat to the cells of the body for energy. While cystic fibrosis related diabetes (CFRD) has many features similar to both T1D and T2D, patients with CF may not have the same symptoms as either T1D or T2D patients. Currently, there is little understanding of CFRD and the best options for treatment remain unclear. The purpose of this research study is to examine and understand the various mechanisms that contribute to CFRD and gain a better understanding of potential means to treat CFRD. In particular, we plan to study the effects of incretin hormones that can enhance insulin production in CF patients. Enrollment is complete for the protocol as initially written. In order to further study the role of the incretin hormone on Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) function , we have received approval to extend our investigation to include the following study groups: Cystic Fibrosis participants with normal glucose tolerance Non-Cystic Fibrosis controls
