Trial summary

It is well known that Long-term hyperglycemia (also known as glucose toxicity) contribute to impairment in islet β-cell function and development of insulin resistance. A growing body of evidence also indicates that this impairment inβ-cell function and insulin action could be restored after hyperglycemia is corrected… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Short-term Intensive Insulin Therapy on Insulin Resistance and Insulin Secretion in Newly Diagnosed Lean and Obese Type 2 Diabetes Patients

It is well known that Long-term hyperglycemia (also known as glucose toxicity) contribute to impairment in islet β-cell function and development of insulin resistance. A growing body of evidence also indicates that this impairment inβ-cell function and insulin action could be restored after hyperglycemia is corrected by short-term intensive insulin therapy. In this study, we are determined to use the golden standard of insulin sensitivity evaluation in vivo-hyperinsulinemia euglycemic glucose clamp-to estimate insulin resistance improvement in patients before and after intensive insulin therapy, investigate first phase insulin secretion to evaluate β-cell function, examine the changes in insulin resistance and insulin secretion resulting from normalization of plasma glucose levels in both lean and obese patients by insulin pump therapy.

What participants receive

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

  • insulin aspartDrug

    Insulin Aspart will be administrated by insulin pump with an initial dose of 0.4-0.6u/kg body weight, of which 50% basal rate and the other 50% bolus dose. Time interval for administration will be as follows: 0-3Am-9Am-12Am-5Pm-9Pm-0Am. Specific adjustment will be made according to individual difference.

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC75-120 of Glucose Infusion Rate (GIR)

    Measured: after 2 weeks insulin pump intensive therapy, and one-year follow-up after termination of treatments

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. AUC0-10 of Acute Insulin Response (AIR) during IVGTT

    Measured: after 2 weeks insulin pump intensive therapy, and one-year follow-up after termination of treatments

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing insulin aspart in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Li Guangwei.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2012. 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.

Are results available for this study?

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

AUC75-120 of Glucose Infusion Rate (GIR) (time frame: after 2 weeks insulin pump intensive therapy, and one-year follow-up after termination of treatments). 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 NCT01588743, 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 1 May 2012.
