- Conditions
- Healthy
- Being tested
- Comparator: graded infusion of intravenous glucose
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Comparator: graded infusion of intravenous glucoseProcedure or surgery
A stepwise graded infusion of glucose (20% dextrose [D20]) with a stable rate of infusion maintained for 40 minutes for each of 5 steps, with steps at 2,4,6,8 and 12mg/kg/min. Procedure will be identical in Period 1 and Period 2.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Period 1 + Period 2 | Experimental | graded infusion of intravenous glucose Receives: Procedure: Comparator: graded infusion of intravenous glucose |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
proper implementation and tolerability of a grade glucose infusion using D20 intravenous infusion measured by glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels
Measured: 0-160 minutes after start of infusion
Secondary outcomes (1)
beta-cell glucose sensitivity (slope of the relationship between insulin secretion rate and glucose)
Measured: 0-160 minutes after start of infusion

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Comparator: graded infusion of intravenous glucose in people with Healthy, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.
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 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 30 Jul 2015. 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?
proper implementation and tolerability of a grade glucose infusion using D20 intravenous infusion measured by glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels (time frame: 0-160 minutes after start of infusion). 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 30 Jul 2015.
