About this study

Official title: Chinese Diabetes Prevention Program: An Implementation and Dissemination Study

This study is being conducted in two phases. The first phase was a pilot implementation of the study protocol, which provided preliminary data from seeking funding for a larger scale trial. The study focused on testing the effects of a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) that has been adapted culturally and linguistically to address diabetes prevention among Chinese immigrants. Study implementation involves a variety capacity building community partnership initiatives. Partnering organizations within New York City (NYC) have included the Chinese Community Partnership for Health (CCPH) of New York Presbyterian Hospital of Lower Manhattan Hospital, the Chinese American Independent Practice Association (CAIPA), the Diabetes Research and Training Center of Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein), and the City University of New York (CUNY) School of Public Health. More recently, our collaboration has expanded the potential for wider dissemination in collaboration with the Pace University Confucius Center of the Confucius Institute. By supporting Chinese language and cultural programs, the Confucius Institute facilitates communication with the 2 billion native Chinese speakers as migration and trade increase interactions globally.

Read the detailed description

The pilot testing (Einstein Institutional Review Board Protocol #2010-491) demonstrated the acceptability and feasibility of implementing the culturally and linguistically Chinese DPP lifestyle protocol. The pilot study found that the intervention resulted in a significant weight loss and trends for glycemic (HbA1c) improvement among Chinese immigrants with prediabetes. The planned R01 funded study will address larger scale implementation to inform wider spread dissemination within the United States and globally. Our specific aims are to:

Aim 1. Evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the implementation model in a cluster randomized trial. Primary endpoints will include changes in weight and glycemia (HbA1c ) one year after randomization. Secondary endpoint will include cardiovascular risk markers, lifestyle (dietary intake and physical activity) and self-reported quality of life.

Aim 2. Evaluate the study generalizability using the RE-AIM (reach, efficacy/effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance) framework. The specific evaluation questions include:

Reach: How many of the eligible patients enrolled? How representative are the study participants of the underlying population?

Efficacy/Effectiveness: How did the intervention affect participants' outcome measures?

Adoption: How acceptable were the intervention components to the participants?

Implementation: How many of the intervention components were provided as planned?

Maintenance: How much of the 1-year intervention effects are sustainable at 2-year follow-up? What mechanisms are available for sustaining the intervention?

Aim 3. Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the implementation model with respects to weight and glycemic (HbA1c) change.

Aim 4. Disseminate "lessons learned" and effective program components to expand access to effective programs within the United States via the registry developed by the Centers for Disease Control of DPP intervention sites and to explore global dissemination issues via our partnership with Confucius Institute.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Chinese DPPBehavioural

    Also called Culturally adapted DPP curriculum

    The Chinese DPP intervention will include core curriculum, stress reduction, physical activity sessions, and self-monitor diet and physical activity.

    .

  • Minimal Intervention ControlBehavioural

    Also called control

    Patients will receive printed diabetes prevention materials in Chinese. Materials will be from primary from the National Diabetes Education Program and from the New York City Department off Health and Mental Hygiene. Patients will receive an educational packet at randomization and quarterly thereafter.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chinese DPP in people with Prediabetes, run by Albert Einstein College of Medicine 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 4 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 6 Feb 2019. 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?

Percent Change in Weight (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Feb 2019.
