About this study

Official title: Understanding the Acute Effects of Prolonged Sedentary Behaviour (Sitting) on Post-meal Glucose and Lipids - A Pilot Study

A randomised, cross-over trial targeting a small sample of older (age 45-65 years) overweight adults with type 2 diabetes the aims of this pilot study are to:

  1. Determine the feasibility of investigating the acute effects of prolonged sedentary behaviour (sitting) in this target group.
  2. Compare the acute effects of a single prolonged (8 hour) bout of sedentary behaviour (sitting) on glucose and triglyceride concentrations and key muscle and adipose regulatory enzymes to a similar bout of sedentary behaviour combined with intermittent bouts of light-intensity activity.
Read the detailed description

The proposed study will involve a randomised cross-over experimental trial conducted in the laboratory setting in older overweight adults with type 2 diabetes. Participants will receive both of the acute testing conditions in a randomised manner.

Study design: Randomised cross-over pilot trial of 20 overweight/obese older adults with diet-controlled type 2 diabetes involving 2 acute treatment conditions, with a one-week wash-out period between testing conditions (Figure 1 a).

Setting: Acute, supervised laboratory setting within the Alfred and Baker Heart Institute Medical Unit.

Outcomes: We will measure acute responses in laboratory-measured plasma glucose \& triglyceride levels (every 60 mins) and glucose concentrations determined from continuous glucose monitoring (CGMS).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes, run by Bayside Health at 1 site in Australia.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 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 Australia. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Pilot study superseded by a larger NHMRC funded trial). Results are not available in the source record.

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.

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 30 Jul 2009.
