About this study

Official title: Tissue-Specific Metabolic Reprogramming in Diabetic Complications. Glycemic Clamp Studies to Determine the Real Time Synthesis Rates of Glucose Derived Metabolites in Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes and Healthy Controls.

We will perform blood sugar studies to assess changes in metabolic (biochemical processes that occur within us) profiles associated with high blood sugar and diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Objective: To assess steady state and dynamic metabolite changes in subjects with type 1 diabetes with and without microvascular complications and to understand intrinsic differences from non-diabetics in metabolite levels and flux.

The hypothesis is that diabetic complications arise from tissue-specific metabolic reprogramming resulting in alterations in fuel utilization which lead to dysfunction of the tissue. To test this hypothesis, we will use sensitive and specific mass spectrometer based metabolomic analysis to measure steady state metabolite levels in plasma and urine from controls subjects and subjects with T1DM, without and with diabetic complications during euglycemic and hyperglycemic clamp studies.

Being tested
Euglycemic clamp (normal blood sugar clamp) for 4 hours, hyperglycemic clamp (elevated blood sugar to 300) for 4 hours
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Study groups in NCT01823406
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Type 1 Diabetes no complications.ExperimentalEach cohort group will be admitted to the Michigan Clinical Research Unit for Blood glucose Clamp studies. Each subject will have a Euglycemic clamp (normal blood sugar clamp) for 4 hours and a hyperglycemic clamp (elevated blood sugar to 300) for 4 hours. Once the subject is clamped, bloods and urine will be collected to assay for specific metabolomics and proteomic biomarkers. We will perform the same clamps for each cohort.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in the levels of TCA cycle metabolites between groups during euglycemia and hyperglycemia

    Investigators will perform 4 hour Euglycemic and 4 hr hyperglycemic glucose clamps on each subject once. The Investigators will have 4 different groups of subjects. At specific time points during the clamps, the investigators will draw blood samples for measurement of metabolic assays and flux . The investigators will also collect spot urine samples for metabolic assay and flux.

    Measured: One time study visit /subject for an average of up to 24 h.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Euglycemic clamp (normal blood sugar clamp) for 4 hours and hyperglycemic clamp (elevated blood sugar to 300) for 4 hours in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of Michigan 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 5 inclusion and 2 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 28 Jun 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 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?

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?

Difference in the levels of TCA cycle metabolites between groups during euglycemia and hyperglycemia (time frame: One time study visit /subject for an average of up to 24 h.). 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 28 Jun 2018.
