About this study

Official title: A Study of the Effect of Combination Lumacaftor and Ivacaftor on Glucose Tolerance in Persons With Cystic Fibrosis Who Are Homozygous for the Phe508del Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Mutation.

The purpose of this research study is to find out if the combined therapy lumacaftor-ivacaftor effects how people with cystic fibrosis respond to an oral glucose tolerance test, a test for diabetes.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open label study with crossover in patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Patients will have 2-3 visits at the Diabetes Center at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).

The participants will have been previously screened clinically to make sure they are candidates for starting the combination drug, lumacaftor-ivacaftor. These patients will be contacted prior to their first visit to discuss enrollment in the study.

At the first study visit (Visit 1), the participant will come to the Diabetes Center after an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. The following will occur at this study visit: informed consent; brief medical history; weight and height; vital signs and blood pressure; blood draw for DNA extraction, and an extra research tube for storage; administration of 75g Glucola load as per a standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) protocol; and blood work for glucose and insulin at 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after the glucose load. This will be scheduled at a time that is convenient to the patient, with an attempt to coordinate with the patient's visit to the CF clinic prior to starting lumacaftor-ivacaftor combination drug.

At the 2nd study visit (Visit 2), which will take place 3 months after starting the combination drug, the participant will again come to the Diabetes Center after an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. The participant will undergo a second OGTT as in the first visit. The 3rd study visit (Visit 3) will be 6 months after initiation of the drug, and will have a repeat administration of an OGTT. If a participant starts the combination drug before enrolling in the study, he/she can still participate in the study as long as he or she has had a clinical OGTT performed within 6 months of starting the combination drug. In these cases, the informed consent, brief medical history, weight and height and vital signs and blood pressure, as well as blood draw for DNA will occur on the Visit 2, which will be the first study visit for these participants. If a clinical OGTT had been performed prior to but within 6 months of starting the combination therapy, this OGTT can be used in analysis of the data, although will not have the full amount of data as the study OGTT.

What participants receive

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

  • Lumacaftor-ivacaftorDrug

    Also called Orkambi

    Subjects who are planning on starting the combination therapy (lumacaftor-ivacaftor) will participate in OGTTs before and after starting the medication.

  • OGTTOther

    Also called Oral Glucose tolerance test

    A subject is given an oral glucose load and insulin and glucose measurements are taken at specified time periods.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lumacaftor IvacaftorExperimentalSubjects will get an OGTT before and after starting the combination therapy lumacaftor-ivacaftor.
Receives: Drug: Lumacaftor-ivacaftor; Other: OGTT

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Fasting Glucose

    This will be compared from baseline to 3 months after starting the medication

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Change in Fasting Glucose

    This will compare baseline to 6 months after starting the medication

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Genetic risk score

    We will examine how the OGTT data is dependent on genotype at variants associated with type 2 diabetes using a genetic risk score

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Pulmonary function test (PFT) FEV1 measurements

    We will compare how PFT measurement of FEV1 are related to changes in OGTT

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Change in Fasting Insulin

    This will be compared from baseline to 3 months after starting the medication

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Change in Fasting Insulin

    This will be compared from baseline to 6 months after starting the medication

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lumacaftor-ivacaftor and OGTT in people with Diabetes and Cystic Fibrosis, run by Massachusetts General Hospital.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change in Fasting Glucose (time frame: 3 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02653027, 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 31 Jul 2019.
