About this study

Official title: A Study Evaluating the Feasibility of Use and Performance of PaQ™ in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Who Are Currently Treated With Basal/Bolus Insulin Therapy

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of a patient, who has type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who is currently treated with basal/bolus insulin therapy, to use PaQ™ (a simple patch on insulin delivery device) to control his/her blood glucose.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open label, feasibility of use and performance evaluation of PaQ™ (using insulin aspart) in patients with T2DM who are currently receiving basal/bolus insulin therapy with or without oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) for glycemic control. The patient's participation in the study is comprised of four phases: screening, baseline evaluation, transition to PaQ™ use, and PaQ™ treatment period. The use of these phases will allow an orderly transition to PaQ™ treatment as well as a reliable construct from which to interpret the final data.

Being tested
PaQ™ insulin infusion device
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

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

  • PaQ™ insulin infusion deviceDevice

    Basal/bolus insulin therapy administered by CSII for 4 weeks. First two weeks is transition period to identify correct basal rate for the patient, second 2 weeks is treatment period to evaluate efficacy of CSII device.

Study groups in NCT01535612
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PaQ™ insulin infusion deviceExperimentalPaQ™ insulin infusion device which delivers rapid acting insulin.
Receives: Device: PaQ™ insulin infusion device

What is being measured

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

  1. Patients ability to successfully assemble, fill, prime, apply and use the PaQ™ device

    Measured: End of two week transition period

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Insulin usage

    Average daily amount of basal insulin and meal time bolus insulin will be calculated

    Measured: End of two baseline period and end of 2 week treatment period

  2. 7-point blood glucose reading

    7 - points are pre and 1.5 hours post each meal and at bedtime

    Measured: Twice per week during baseline period (weeks 1 & 2) and PaQ™ Treatment period (weeks 5 & 6)

  3. Glucose variability

    Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) will be performed. Data stored in the CGM will be transferred to a computer at the end of each study period. Glucose variability during each time period will be calculated.

    Measured: During baseline and PaQ™ treatment period

  4. Glucose exposure

    Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) will be performed. Data stored in the CGM will be transferred to a computer at the end of each study period. Glucose exposure during each time period will be calculated.

    Measured: During baseline and PaQ™ treatment period

  5. Glucose Stability

    Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) will be performed. Data stored in the CGM will be transferred to a computer at the end of each study period. Glucose stability during each time period will be calculated.

    Measured: During baseline and PaQ™ Treatment Period

  6. Infection at cannula insertion site

    Measured: During transition and PaQ™ treatment period

  7. Occurence of adverse experiences and the number and severity of hypoglycemic episodes

    Measured: During baseline, transition and PaQ™ treatment period

  8. Quality of Life Questionnaire

    Measured: At the end of the study

  9. Dermal Irritation

    Measured: During transition and PaQ™ treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PaQ™ insulin infusion device in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by CeQur Corporation 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 5 inclusion and 11 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 27 Jul 2016. 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.

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?

Patients ability to successfully assemble, fill, prime, apply and use the PaQ™ device (time frame: End of two week transition 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 NCT01535612, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jul 2016.
