Background: Insulin resistance is present in the setting of congestive heart failure. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a naturally occurring incretin with both insulinotropic and insulinomimetic properties.Methods and Results: We investigated the safety and efficacy of a 5-week infusion of GLP-1 (2.5 pmol/ kg/min) added to standard therapy in 12 patients with New York Heart Association class III/IV heart failure and compared the results with those of 9 patients with heart failure on standard therapy alone. Echocardiograms, maximum myocardial ventilation oxygen consumption (VO2\ max), 6-minute walk test, and Minnesota Living with Heart Failure quality of life score (MNQOL) were assessed. Baseline demographics, background therapy, and the degree of left ventricular dysfunction were similar between groups. GLP-1 significantly improved left ventricular ejection fraction (21 +/- 3% to 27 +/- 3% P < .01), VO2 max (10.8 +/- .9 ml/O-2/min/kg to 13.9 +/-.6 ml/O-2/min/kg; P
