About this study

To understand if Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) managed subjects can improve glycaemic control by;

  1. regularly checking and understanding Continuous Glucose data \& trend arrows at times other than the standard pre-meal bolus calculation test times and
  2. review of their glucose profiles (inc. hypoglycaemic risks) with their Health Care Professional (HCP) and adjusting behaviours \& therapy from interpretation of the Continuous Glucose profiles.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CGM - intervention armExperimentalFollowing a 14 day masked (baseline) period using the FreeStyle Navigator subjects will wear an unmasked FreeStyle Navigator with the glucose alarms switched off.
Receives: Device: FreeStyle Navigator
SMBG - Control armActive comparatorFollowing a 14 day masked ( baseline) period using the FreeStyle Navigator subjects will manage their blood glucose with a standard SMBG and use a FreeStyle Navigator masked for a 14 day period at the end of the study.
Receives: Device: Standard SMBG

What is being measured

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

  1. Time in Range

    Intervention arm: within subject difference in time in range (70-180 mg/dL, 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/L) in final 15 days compared to baseline phase assessed separately for Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.

    Measured: Day 86 to 100 compared to Day 1 to 15

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Time in Range

    Difference in time in range (70-180 mg/dL, 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/L) intervention arm compared to control arm.

    Measured: Days 86 to 100 intervention arm compared to control arm

  2. Glucose Standard Deviation (SD)

    Measured: Day 86 to 100 compared to day 1 to 15

  3. HbA1c (mmol/Mol)

    Measured: Day 100 compared to day 1

  4. HbA1c

    Measured: Day 100 compared to day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing FreeStyle Navigator and Standard SMBG in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by Abbott Diabetes Care at 9 sites in United Kingdom.

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 8 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 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United Kingdom. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Mar 2015). 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?

Time in Range (time frame: Day 86 to 100 compared to Day 1 to 15). 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 Mar 2016.
