About this study

Official title: Open Label, Multicenter Randomized Control Study to Investigate the Incidence of NODAT (New-Onset Diabetes After Transplantation), Safety and Efficacy of Corticosteroids Early Withdrawal in Liver Transplanted Recipients

With improvements in patient and graft survival, increasing attention has been placed on complications that contribute to long-term patient morbidity and mortality. New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is a common complication of solid-organ transplantation, and is a strong predictor of graft failure and cardiovascular mortality in the transplant population. Risk factors for NODAT in transplant recipients are similar to those in non-transplant patients, but transplant-specific risk factors such as hepatitis C (HCV) infection, corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors play a dominant role in NODAT pathogenesis. The predominant factor for causing NODAT by corticosteroids seems to be the aggravation of insulin resistance; however several studies have displayed deleterious effects on insulin secretion and β-cells. Thus, adjusting the immunosuppressant regimen to improve glucose tolerance must be measured and defined from long term perspective.

As recipients of organ transplants survive longer, the complications of NODAT have assumed greater importance; therefore, we designed a prospective study to compare the safety and efficacy of early versus late withdrawal of corticosteroids after liver transplantation.

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate incidence of NODAT in patients of two arms

    NODAT will be defined as consecutively FPG ≥126mg/dl in two different days or PPG 2hr ≥200mg/dl Ref. Steroid Withdrawal in Adult Liver Transplantation: Occurrence at a Single Center. Transplantation Proceedings, 2010; 42: 4132-4136)

    1. Incidence of NODAT in ref. : (9.9%)
    2. 95% Confidence Interval(CI): (6%)

    Considering 10% drop-out rate, 76 patients will be enrolled in one arm. Totally, 152 will be enrolled.

    Measured: for 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To evaluate incidence rate of first acute rejection

    Measured: for 1 year

  2. To evaluate time to first acute rejection

    Measured: for 1 year

  3. To evaluate proportion of patients experiencing treatment failure

    Measured: for 1 year

  4. To evaluate graft survival rates

    Measured: for 1 year

  5. To evaluate patient overall survial, OS

    Measured: for 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mycophenolate mofetil, Corticosteroids and Corticosteroids, Mycophenolate mofetil in people with Diabetes, run by Samsung Medical Center at 5 sites in South Korea.

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 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jae Won Joh, M.D., Ph.D. (82215993114, jw.joh@samsung.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate incidence of NODAT in patients of two arms (time frame: for 1 year). 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 24 Mar 2014.
