About this study

Official title: An Evaluation of a New Subcutaneous Glucose Sensor in Pediatric Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess performance of a new subcutaneous glucose sensor over a seven day sensor life when used with currently marketed Medtronic Diabetes devices. In addition performance of the new sensor will be calculated for use of the new sensor with proposed new devices using new calibration algorithms.

Read the detailed description

The first generation Medtronic MiniMed Subcutaneous Glucose Sensor (Sof-Sensor) was originally approved by the FDA for commercialization as part of the Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS) on June 15, 1999 (PMA 980022). The Sensor is composed of a microelectrode with a thin coating of glucose oxidase beneath several layers of biocompatible membrane. This same sensor was used as part of subsequent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems, such as the Guardian REAL-Time and Paradigm REAL-Time sensor augmented insulin pump. The current configuration of sensor has undergone in vitro and in vivo testing. A new second-generation glucose sensor (herein referred to as the Comfort Sensor) has been developed. The first-generation glucose sensor was approved with reported sensor accuracy (MAD) of 18%; it was labeled for maximum use duration of 72 hours, using only the abdomen as an insertion site. The new sensor is shorter and has a smaller diameter, with a smaller gauge introducer needle. The new sensor inserter is designed to be used with the new sensor. The objectives of this study are to 1) Assess performance of the Comfort Sensor when used over a period of seven days with currently available devices, and 2) Assess performance of the Comfort Sensor when used over a period of seven days using new calibration algorithms (post-processed with algorithm for future devices). Accuracy data will be calculated based on comparing calibrated glucose sensor values to glucose meter values during in-home testing. The devices that will be used for gathering sensor data during this study will be: 1) the Comfort Sensor, 2) the MiniLink (Transmitter), and 3) the Guardian REAL-Time Display Device.

What is being measured

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

  1. Glucose Sensor Accuracy When Compared to SMBG: Proportion of Glucose Sensor Readings That Met Accuracy Criteria [Time Frame: Days One Through Six of Sensor Use]

    The primary accuracy parameter (primary effectiveness endpoint) was the comparative readings of paired sensor and SMBG glucose readings, measured on days 1 through 6. Accuracy is defined as within 20% agreement between SMBG and paired sensor (within 20 mg/dL if SMBG ≤ 80 mg/dL). Accuracy ranges from 0 - 100, with higher number suggests better accuracy.

    Measured: Days one through six of sensor use

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Device Related Moderate or Device Related Severe Adverse Events

    Device related moderate adverse event: low level of inconvenience or concern to the subject and may interfere with daily activities but is usually improved by simple therapeutic remedy.

    Device related severe adverse event: interrupts a subject's daily activity and typically requires intervening treatment.

    Note: device related determination is made by the site that there is a reasonable possibility that the adverse event may have been caused by the device

    Measured: days one through six of sensor wear

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sensor wear in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Medtronic MiniMed, Inc. at 4 sites in United States.

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 7 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 4 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Sep 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Glucose Sensor Accuracy When Compared to SMBG: Proportion of Glucose Sensor Readings That Met Accuracy Criteria [Time Frame: Days One Through Six of Sensor Use] (time frame: Days one through six of sensor use). 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 4 Sep 2020.
