About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Properties of Rapid-Acting Insulin Analogs Given as a Bolus by Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) and in MDI Basal-Bolus Therapy in Pediatric Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes (TID)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the variations in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of rapid-acting insulin analogs when given as a bolus by subcutaneous insulin infusion pump as typically encountered in the care of children with type 1 diabetes.

The specific factors under investigation are:

  • the effects of puberty
  • type of insulin analog
  • site of catheter insertion
  • and age of catheter
Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the variations in pharmacokinetic (as determined by serum free insulin concentrations) and pharmacodynamic (as determined by the glucose infusion rate required to maintain euglycemia during a euglycemic clamp) properties of the rapid acting insulin analogs when given as a bolus by subcutaneous insulin infusion pump as typically encountered in the care of children with type 1 diabetes. The specific factors we will investigate are the effects of puberty (pre- vs. pubertal), type of insulin analog (lispro or aspart insulin), site of catheter insertion (gluteal vs. abdominal), and age of catheter (fresh insertion vs. three-day duration) Our hypotheses are that the peak (Imax) and area under the curve (IAUC) serum free insulin concentration, and the peak glucose infusion rate required to maintain euglycemia (GIRmax) and area under the curve (GIRAUC) will vary based on these conditions, in children given the same weight-based dose.

We will also evaluate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of Aspart and Lispro insulin when used in a basal-bolus regimen with insulin Detemir or Glargine, new basal insulin analogs, given as separate injections and when combined in a single injection in adolescent patients with Type 1 DM. We hypothesize that the peak (IMAX) and area under the curve (IAUC) serum insulin concentrations, and the peak glucose infusion rate required to maintain euglycemia (GIRMAX) and area under the curve (GIRAUC) of the Aspart/Lispro bolus, will be similar when the Aspart/Lispro is combined in the same syringe with the insulin Detemir/Glargine, compared to when the Aspart/Lispro and Detemir/Glargine are given as two separate injections.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Insulin analogs (Lispro and Aspart), Insulin analogs (Aspart and Detemir) and Insulin analogs (Lispro and Glargine) in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type I, run by Yale University.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 1 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Maximum Glucose Infusion Rate (GIR) to maintain euglycemia (time frame: Six hour observation period). 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 NCT00652288, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 1 Sep 2016.
