About this study

Official title: Prediabetes Lifestyle Intervention Study

The purpose of this prospective randomized multicenter intervention study is to determine whether in the prevention of Diabetes an intensified lifestyle intervention is superior to a conventional lifestyle intervention in high risk non-Responder subjects. Further, the intensive phenotyping to determine subgroups with an increased risk for diabetes enables an individualized prevention and therapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Read the detailed description

The study start with an intensive phenotyping at baseline (initial examination) to determine subjects with prediabetes. These high risk non-Responder are randomized in two arms (intensified vs normal lifestyle intervention)with equal number of subjects (n=250). The results are compared with each other at the end of the study.

The low risk Responder are randomized in two arms (normal vs. once lifestyle intervention = control group) with equal number of subjects (n=250).

After the screening at baseline the 12 month lifestyle intervention starts for lifestyle intervention groups. The different therapy groups are formed as described before. The subjects with intensified lifestyle intervention get 16 consultations, the subjects with normal lifestyle intervention get 8 consultations, the subjects of the control group get one consultation to learn more about a healthier lifestyle. During the whole study there is a continuous supervision from physician and nutritional advisers and the subjects have to document a nutrition and an exercise protocol as well as subjective measurements. At baseline, after 24 weeks and at follow up 1, 2 and 3 years later there is an elaborate metabolic characterization of all subjects (also the Responder groups) a 75 g venous oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) as well as an analysis of the distribution of body fat confirmed by MR-Imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy by 3 T whole body imager.

What is being measured

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

  1. postprandial glycaemia (2h plasma glucose level of the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT))

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. insulin sensitivity confirmed by 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

    insulin resistance is calculated as follows:

    • Insulinogenic index (IGI) = (I30 - I0) / (G30 - G0)
    • ISIest= 10000/²√ ((G0 x I0) x ((G0+G30+G60+G90+G120)/5) x ((I0+I30+I60+I90+I120)/5))

    Measured: one year

  2. insulin secretion confirmed by 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

    insulin resistance is calculated as follows:

    • Insulinogenic index (IGI) = (I30 - I0) / (G30 - G0)
    • ISIest= 10000/²√ ((G0 x I0) x ((G0+G30+G60+G90+G120)/5) x ((I0+I30+I60+I90+I120)/5))

    Measured: one year

  3. distribution of body fat confirmed by MR-Imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy by 3 T whole body imager

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intensified lifestyle intervention, normal lifestyle intervention and Single lifestyle advice in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 7 sites in Germany.

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 36 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 23 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Germany. 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?

postprandial glycaemia (2h plasma glucose level of the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)) (time frame: one year). 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 NCT01947595, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 23 Aug 2017.
