About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Active Control, Multi-Center Study Comparing the Effect of Intraperitoneal Insulin Administration to Subcutaneous Insulin Administration on Glycemic Control and the Frequency of Severe Hypoglycemia

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of insulin delivered in the peritoneum (abdomen)by an implantable pump in Type 1 diabetics.

Read the detailed description

Implantable insulin delivery pumps have been shown to reduce the occurrence of severe hypoglycemia in Type 1 DM subjects, as demonstrated in numerous European studies. Glycemic control is difficult to attain in subjects using exogenous insulin due to the risk of severe hypoglycemia. This study is aimed at comparing the efficacy of intraperitoneal (IP) insulin therapy to intensive subcutaneous insulin therapy over a period of 12 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump Human Recombinant InsulinDrug

    Also called Human insulin injection (rDNA origin)

    400 IU per ml - dosage based on the Investigators clinical judgement and the individual subject requirements.

  • Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump SystemDevice

    Also called IP insulin pump system

    The implantable pump system is intended to provide continuous intraperitoneal delivery of insulin in subjects with diabetes.

  • Aventis HOE21PH U400Drug

    Also called Aventis U400 insulin, Aventis ETP Insulin

    400 IU per ml - dosage based on the Investigators clinical judgement and the individual subject requirements.

Study groups in NCT00211536
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
MiniMed Implantable insulin Pump (MIP)ExperimentalThe experimental group will receive intraperitoneally (IP) delivered insulin via the Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump (MIP). At the time of implant, the pump will be filled with Aventis HOE21PH U400 insulin and the subject will be treated with this insulin for the first 180 days post implant. During the refill procedure performed 180 days post implant, any insulin remaining in the pump will be removed and the pump will be refilled with Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump Human Recombinant Insulin.
Receives: Drug: Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump Human Recombinant Insulin; Device: Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump System; Drug: Aventis HOE21PH U400
Subcutaneous insulin arm (SC)No interventionThe control group will remain on their current pre-study subcutaneous insulin therapy of either Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) or Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII - external insulin pump). The SC group will not be restricted to the type of insulin used, or be required to change or modify their current diabetes therapy for the purpose of the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in HbA1c and Compared Between Groups

    To determine whether Intra Peritoneal insulin delivery via MIP results in glycemic control that is equal to or superior (i.e. not inferior to) control with SC therapy (Ho : μ (IP) -μ (SC) ≥ 0.50% A1C), a repeated measures analysis of variance, adjusting for baseline A1C using SAS Proc Mixed was used to compare average A1C trends over time between the two treatment groups (19). Type 3 Least Square (LS) means for each group were assessed. The Estimate statement within SAS proc mixed was used to estimate contrasts among the LS means and confidence intervals for the contrasts.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  2. Incidence of Severe Hypoglycemia Events

    The total number of severe hypoglycemia events, defined as a clinical episode of hypoglycemia (resulting in seizure or coma, requiring hospitalization, intravenous glucose or glucagon administration), or any hypoglycemia that requires assistance from another person, compared between the two study arms from Baseline to 12 months.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Average Daily Blood Glucose

    For each subject, a minimum of two blood glucose readings per day was required for calculation of the average daily mean. The overall mean of the mean for each subject for the measure time frame was then calculated. The mean of the results for all subjects in each group were then analyzed and compared between groups both at Baseline and 12 months.

    Measured: average from baseline to 12 months

  2. Mean Amplitude of Glycemic Excursions (MAGE)

    MAGE was calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of BG excursions when both ascending and descending segments of the curve exceed one Standard Deviation of the average 24-hour BG value. MAGE was calculated for each subject using SMBG data from periods in which subjects had a minimum of 4 and maximum of 10 readings daily. The overall mean of the mean for each subject for the measure time frame was then calculated. The mean of the results for all subjects in each group were then analyzed and compared between groups both at Baseline and 12 months.

    Measured: average from baseline to 12 months

  3. Low Blood Glucose Index (LBGI);

    4 to 10 daily blood glucose readings (BG) were required for this measure. LBGI was calculated from BG values collected for 30 days prior to Visit 2 and 30 days following Visits 5 and 7. The continuous measure was compared between the two treatment groups for the three periods with a repeated measures ANOVA using proc mixed. Type 3 least square means for each group were assessed and estimate statements used to make comparisons among the LS means and create confidence intervals on the contrasts.

    Measured: average from baseline to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump Human Recombinant Insulin, Medtronic MiniMed Implantable Pump System and Aventis HOE21PH U400 in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Medtronic MiniMed, Inc. at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in HbA1c and Compared Between Groups (time frame: Baseline and 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Sep 2011.
