About this study

Official title: Changes of the Infusion Rate in Insulin Pump Treatment. A Randomized, Unblinded Cross-Over Study.

A pharmacokinetic study of insulin pump treatment using Insulin Aspart. The study consist of three different periods A, B and C where a constant the insulin infusion rate is given during the periods. In period B and C will the infusion start with a bolus.

It will be investigated if a steady state of insulin will be obtained faster in period B and C then A.

Read the detailed description

A pharmacokinetic study of insulin pump treatment using Insulin Aspart. The study consist of three different periods A, B and C where a constant the insulin infusion rate is given during the periods. Each period will last 12 hours and blood will be drawn to measure absorbed Insulin Aspart. During period A will a constant the infusion rate of insulin be given. In period B and C will there at the start of the constant infusion rate be given a bolus. The bolus in period C is calculated on the basis of the results in period B, therefore will all participants experience period C last where as period A and B is randomized cross-over. Period C is written in the protocol as optional and it is evaluated after period A and B if period C will be performed.

The hypothesis is that steady state of insulin will be obtained faster in period B and C than A.

What participants receive

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

  • Insulin AspartDrug

    Also called Insulin Aspart/NovoRapid

    A; CSII without bolus: 8 hours of constant insulin infusion. B; CSII with bolus: 8 hours of a constant insulin infusion starting with a s.c. bolus.

    C; CSII with bolus, optional: 8 hours of a constant insulin infusion starting with a different bolus than period B. This period is optional and it will be evaluated after period A and B if period C is conducted.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
A, CSII without bolusOtherPeriod A: A constant subcutaneous infusion rate of insulin aspart (0.5 U/hr) is given for 8 hours. Following 3 hours of blood sampling.
Receives: Drug: Insulin Aspart
B; CSII with bolusOtherPeriod B: A constant subcutaneous infusion of insulin aspart (0.5 U/hr) is given for 8 hours and upon start a s.c.bolus (1.4 U)of insulin aspart is given. Hereafter follows 3 hours of blood sampling.
Receives: Drug: Insulin Aspart
C; CSII with bolus, optionalOtherA constant subcutaneous insulin aspart infusion is given for 8 hours and upon start a bolus of insulin aspart is given. The bolus in arm C is of a different size then arm B. After the 8 hours of constant infusion follows 3 hours of blood sampling. Period C are optional and it is evaluated if it will be conducted after period A and B has been performed.
Receives: Drug: Insulin Aspart

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin Aspart in people with Diabetes, run by Aarhus University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 2 Jul 2009. 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 Denmark. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Absorbed Insulin Aspart (time frame: one year). 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 2 Jul 2009.
