Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to compare functional beta-cell mass using the hyperglycaemic clamp test in insulin-independent pancreas-kidney recipients with that in non-diabetic kidney recipients and normal controls as well as with the partially previously reported data in beta-cell recipients.

About this study

Official title: Insulin Secretory Capacity in Insulin-independent Pancreas-Kidney Recipients Compared to Non-Diabetic Kidney Recipients, Insulin Independent Recipients of Beta-cell Grafts and Healthy Controls.

The purpose of this study is to compare functional beta-cell mass using the hyperglycaemic clamp test in insulin-independent pancreas-kidney recipients with that in non-diabetic kidney recipients and normal controls as well as with the partially previously reported data in beta-cell recipients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing hyperglycemic clamp test in people with Kidney Transplantation and Pancreas Transplantation, run by University Hospital, Gasthuisberg at 1 site in Belgium.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2012. 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 Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Chantal Mathieu, M.D., PhD. (0032/16/346994, chantal.mathieu@uz.kuleuven.ac.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

insulin secretion during clamp test (time frame: time 0). 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 15 Jun 2012.
