About this study

Monocenter single-arm, prospective clinical study in 20 type 1 diabetic subjects, equipped with the GlucoMen®Day system, over up to 100 hours observation after implantation of the microdialysis probe. Different meal/hypo procedures will be performed at the study centre.

Read the detailed description

This is a monocenter single-arm, prospective clinical study in 20 type 1 diabetic subjects, who will be equipped with the GlucoMen®Day system.

Each subject will be investigated for up to 100 hours after implantation of the microdialysis probe.

In order to verify the clinical effectiveness of the GlucoMenDay the subjects will be asked to perform a total of six self testing measurements per day using the GlucoCard G-Meter according to the following scheme:

  • before breakfast
  • before lunch
  • 60-120 minutes after lunch
  • before dinner
  • 60-120 minutes after dinner
  • at 3 AM

Subjects will be asked to come to the research facility every day to obtain a venous blood sample and to check system functioning.

Subjects will be randomized either to Procedure A - Multiple sampling or Procedure B - Meal/Insulin test.

Procedure A - Multiple sampling:

This procedure can be performed at days 2-4 of the study period. Subjects will receive a standardized lunch (100 g of CHO), administration of insulin will be performed by the subject based on insulin to carbohydrate ratio. An intravenous catheter will be inserted in one forearm and venous sampling will start 1 hour after lunch ingestion. Arterialized-venous blood sampling will be performed every 15 minutes for a period of two hours. Samples will be analyzed for glucose using the Super GL; concomitantly capillary measurements using the GlucoCard G Meter will be performed.

Procedure B - Meal/Insulin test:

This procedure will be performed on days 2 and four of the experiment. Subjects randomized to procedure B will be asked to undergo this investigation twice.

Subjects will receive a standard breakfast (75g CHO), the usual morning insulin dose will be post-poned. An increased dose of rapid-acting insulin analogue aiming to produce minor hypoglycaemia based on insulin to carbohydrate ratio will be injected subcutaneously. Arterialized-venous sampling will be performed every 10 minutes for a period of two hours.

Samples will be analyzed for glucose using the Super GL; concomitantly, capillary measurements using the GlucoCard G Meter will be performed.

On day 5 subjects will return to the clinical trial unit for collection of a final blood sample and removal of the device.

Subjects will be asked to come to the research facility at 48 and 72 hours after removal of the device for an evaluation of local site reactions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • GlucoMenDayDevice

    Also called Continuous Glucose Monitoring

    Subjects will receive a standardized lunch (100 g of CHO), administration of insulin will be performed by the subject based on insulin to carbohydrate ratio.

    An intravenous catheter will be inserted in one forearm and venous sampling will start 1 hour after lunch ingestion. Arterialized-venous blood sampling will be performed every 15 minutes for a period of two hours. Samples will be analyzed for glucose using the Super GL; concomitantly capillary measurements using the GlucoCard G Meter will be performed.

    This procedure can be performed on days 3-4 of monitoring; each subject randomized to Procedure A undergoes this procedure once.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GlucoMenDay in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Medical University of Graz at 1 site in Austria.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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 20 Apr 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 Austria. 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.

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?

Accuracy of the GlucoMenDay (time frame: 1 week). 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 20 Apr 2012.
