About this study

Official title: Cross-over, Double-blind, Unicentric, 52 Week Trial of Liraglutide in Type 1 Diabetes.

To our knowledge, no trial has specifically studied the effect of liraglutide combined with a basal/bolus insulin regimen in type 1 diabetes in a cross-over, double-blind, unicentric model. Moreover, the potential impact of a glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist on measures of abdominal fat (assessed by CT scan), insulin sensitivity (assessed by the gold standard euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp) and satiety sensations have not been evaluated in this population.

Hypothesis Overweight participants with type 1 diabetes on liraglutide/insulin treatment will present improved glucose control with decreased HbA1c, decreased fasting and mean weekly glucose concentrations and glycemic excursions as well as increased insulin sensitivity compared to participants on placebo/insulin treatment. Participants with liraglutide/insulin treatment will also present improved endothelial function, lower body weight, central adipose tissue assessed by CT scan and higher satiety sensations assessed by visual analogue scales.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be submitted to this double-blind cross-over protocol of 52-week use of liraglutide/placebo.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of Changes in Glycemic Control by HbA1c.

    To investigate the effect of 24 weeks of treatment with liraglutide combined with a basal/bolus insulin regimen in overweight participants with type 1 diabetes on glycemic control as assessed by HbA1c.

    Measured: Measure changes in HbA1c at 24 and 52 weeks from baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assessment of Changes on Adipose Tissue

    To investigate the effect of 24 weeks of treatment with liraglutide combined with the basal/bolus insulin regimen insulin on adipose tissue

    Measured: Measure changes in the composite at 24 and 52 weeks from baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Liraglutide in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by CHU de Quebec-Universite Laval at 1 site in Canada.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 5 Jan 2018. 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 Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 5 Jan 2018). 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?

Assessment of Changes in Glycemic Control by HbA1c. (time frame: Measure changes in HbA1c at 24 and 52 weeks from baseline). 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 NCT01787916, 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 5 Jan 2018.
