Description as written by the study sponsor.

The present study will examine the effects of liraglutide treatment during 26 weeks on several cardiovascular risk factors in patients with prediabetes and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of the treatment on glucose tolerance evaluated during a 3h 75g-oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Secondary objectives include various clinical and biochemical cardiovascular and safety parameters. We hypothesise that treatment with liraglutide can improve glucose tolerance in prediabetic patients with ESRD by normalizing plasma glucose excursions during an OGTT and ameliorate other cardiovascular risk factors.
