About this study

The investigators are doing this research study to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) (rate of absorption) of insulin lispro (Humalog), insulin aspart (Novolog), and insulin glulisine (Apidra) within individual subjects.

Additionally, the investigators will perform a preliminary feasibility evaluation of a minimally invasive continuous insulin monitoring (CIM) device and its use to derive PK parameters in human subjects.

Study groups in NCT01684943
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Multiplex pharmacokinetic profilingExperimentalMultiplex pharmacokinetic profiling of regular human insulin, insulin aspart, insulin lispro, insulin glulisine, and regular human insulin. All subjects participated in the single study arm and received injections of each type of insulin. Blood samples were drawn at intervals for pharmacokinetic profiling.
Receives: Other: Multiplex pharmacokinetic profiling
Continuous insulin monitoringExperimentalContinuous insulin monitoring (CIM) of insulin lispro. Some subjects participated in the CIM sub-study, which is distinct from the Multiplex Pharmacokinetic Profiling study. This intervention involved administering insulin lispro and monitoring pharmacokinetic profile of the drug using blood samples and an investigational continuous insulin monitoring system.
Receives: Other: Continuous insulin monitoring

What is being measured

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

  1. For Multiplex PK Profiling: Aggregate Mean Difference in Tmax Between the Analog With Greatest and the Analog With the Least Value of Tmax for Individuals

    The average difference in tmax between lispro and aspart in all participants

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300 minutes after dose

  2. For Continuous Insulin Monitoring: Time to Maximum Plasma Insulin and Time to Maximum Continuous Insulin Monitoring Insulin

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300 minutes after dose

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Multiplex PK: Average Baseline HbA1c Categorized According to Baseline Use of Insulin Analog Found to Have the Most Favorable PK Profile for Each Individual

    Subjects with a difference in tmax between analogs will be categorized as follows: using insulin with best PK for them, using insulin with worst PK for them, or using insulin with intermediate PK for them. The average A1c for each of the three categories is reported.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Multiplex PK: Count of Subjects With Difference in Tmax Between the Analog With Greatest and the Analog With the Least Value of Tmax That is > 25%

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300 minutes after dose

  3. Multiplex PK: Average Baseline HbA1c Categorized According to Baseline Use of Insulin Analog With Tmax < 60 Minutes vs. Use of an Insulin Analog With Tmax > 60 Minutes for Each Individual

    Subjects with a difference in tmax between analogs will be categorized as follows: using insulin with tmax less than or equal to 60 minutes or using insulin with tmax > 60 minutes. The average A1c per group is reported.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Multiplex PK: Average Number of Hypoglycemia Events Over the Last Month at Baseline Categorized According to Baseline Use of Insulin Analog Found to Have the Most Favorable PK Profile for Each Individual

    Subjects with a difference in tmax between analogs will be categorized as follows: using insulin with best PK for them, using insulin with worst PK for them, or using insulin with intermediate PK for them. The average number of hypoglycemic events per month per group is reported.

    Measured: 1 month prior to study entry

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Multiplex pharmacokinetic profiling and Continuous insulin monitoring in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Massachusetts General Hospital at 1 site 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 3 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 12 Dec 2019. 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 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 12 Dec 2019). 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?

For Multiplex PK Profiling: Aggregate Mean Difference in Tmax Between the Analog With Greatest and the Analog With the Least Value of Tmax for Individuals (time frame: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300 minutes after dose). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 12 Dec 2019.
