About this study

Official title: Use of a Real Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (RT-CGMS) in Type 1 Diabetes Patients on Continuous Intraperitoneal Insulin Infusion (CIPII. A Feasibility Study

To investigate the effectiveness and safety of a Real Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (RT-CGMS in a population of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin through an implanted pump.

Read the detailed description

Background: Strict glycaemic control reduces risk of complications and improves quality of life in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Real Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (RT-CGMS) is a novel system which can provide patients and health care professionals with real time information about the blood glucose level without the need for multiple invasive measurements. Furthermore, with continuous monitoring it is possible to identify trends in glycaemic profiles. Its effectiveness and safety have never been tested in a population of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin through an implanted pump.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness and safety of the RT-CGMS in patients treated with intraperitoneal continuous insulin infusion (CIPII).

Study design: Open label, randomized cross-over, single-center controlled trial.

Study population: Patients on CIPII. Intervention: There are 3 study phases. In the Baseline phase, all patients will have the RT-CGMS blinded so that no information on blood glucose values measured and stored by the RT-CGMS will be available to care-givers, investigators or patients during this study period. Randomization will determine the sequence of blinded and unblinded RT-CGMS in the 2nd and 3rd phase. When the RT-CGMS is not blinded, the system will alert whenever a glucose level falls below or rises above preset values. Sensor values are not intended to be used directly for making therapy adjustments. Whenever a value is below or above the preset value, the blood glucose level will be measured using a blood glucose meter and therapy adjustments based on this value will be done according to protocol.

Study endpoints: Primary: Percentage of time spent in euglycaemia. Secondary: percentage of time spent in hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia, incidence and severity of hypoglycaemia (as measured with SMBG), incidence of adverse effects, number of measurements of blood glucose (SMBG) performed, number of adjustments of insulin therapy, patient satisfaction, agreement of paired SMBG and RT-CGMS measurements.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical effectiveness: percentage of time spent in euglycaemia

    Measured: 3-6 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Clinical effectiveness: Percentage of time spent in hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia.

    Measured: 3-6 days

  2. Safety: incidence of adverse effects

    Measured: ca. 30 days

  3. Incidence of hypoglycaemia; Number of SMBG performed, Number of adjustments of insulin therapy, Patient satisfaction, agreement of paired SMBG and RT-CGMS measurements.

    Measured: 3-6 -30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Real-Time Continuous Glucose monitoring System (RT-CGMS) in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Medical Research Foundation, The Netherlands at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 3 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 11 Apr 2008. 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 Netherlands. 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.

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?

Clinical effectiveness: percentage of time spent in euglycaemia (time frame: 3-6 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00501072, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Apr 2008.
