About this study
Official title: The Effect of Protein Kinase C Inhibition on Renal and Peripheral Hemodynamic Function in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Protein kinase C (PKC), an enzyme in the body, has been implicated in the process of diabetic microvascular complications. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the renal hemodynamic and peripheral vascular effects of PKC inhibition with ruboxistaurin mesylate (an inhibitor of PKC) in patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus and evidence of early nephropathy. In this pilot study, 21 patients with type 1 diabetes were planned to be randomized to LY333531 or placebo in a 2:1 fashion, after an initial period of testing. After 8 weeks of study drug, patients were retested.
Read the detailed description
This is a pilot study with 3 parts. Twenty-one patients with type 1 diabetes will be randomized to LY333531 or placebo in a 2:1 fashion. Each patient will be studied on four occasions, while euglycemic and while hyperglycemic without PKC inhibition and while euglycemic and hyperglycemic after an eight-week period of PKC inhibition.
Study Part 1: The impact of PKC inhibition on the renal and peripheral hemodynamic response to hyperglycemia On the evening prior to the first study day, the study participants will be admitted to an in-patient research facility with overnight plasma glucose levels maintained at 4-6 mmol/L using a modified glucose clamp technique. The next day, baseline measures of endothelial function and vascular compliance, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and renal function, including glomerular filtration rate (GFR), effective renal plasma flow (ERPF), renal blood flow (RBF), filtration fraction (FF) and renal vascular resistance (RVR) will be obtained using inulin and para-aminohippurate. In all diabetic subjects, euglycemia or hyperglycemia will be maintained by modified overnight glucose clamping techniques. During the second day of the study, capillary blood glucose will be maintained at 9-11 mmol/l overnight, and the renal and peripheral vascular hemodynamic measurements will be repeated the following day. The subjects will then be given the PKC-inhibitor LY333531 (or placebo) for 6 weeks, after which the study will be repeated. The first dose of LY333531 will be taken at 0800 hrs the day after the completion of Study 1 The dose will consist of 32 mg PO OD. Study participants will monitor their capillary blood glucose levels on a four times daily schedule.
Study Part 2: The impact of PKC inhibition on the response to Ang II On the evening prior to the first study day, the study participants will be admitted to an in-patient research facility with overnight plasma glucose levels maintained at 4-6 mmol/L using a modified glucose clamp technique. The next day, baseline measures of renal function, including GFR, ERPF, RBF, FF and RVR will be obtained. Graded Ang II infusion will be administered, and the response of MAP, GFR, RPF, RBF, FF and RVR will be measured. The subjects will then be given the PKC-inhibitor LY333531 (or placebo) for 8 weeks, as previously described, after which the study will be repeated.
Study Part 3: The impact of PKC inhibition on proteinuria . Subjects will collect a 24 hour urine sample for protein / albumin excretion. They will subsequently be randomized to receive either the PKC inhibitor LY333531 or placebo, using a table of random numbers. After 8 weeks treatment, the 24 hour urine sample will again be collected.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing ruboxistaurin in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Chromaderm, Inc. at 1 site in Canada.
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 4 inclusion and 4 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 29 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Primary outcomes will be the change in proteinuria, pre- and post-treatment with ruboxistaurin. (time frame: Baseline and 8 weeks). The study lists 3 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 29 Aug 2016.
