About this study

Official title: Study of Minimed 640G Insulin Pump With SmartGuard in Prevention of Low Glucose Events in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes at Risk of Severe Hypoglycemia

The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of sensor augmented pump (SAP) therapy with MiniMed 640G with SmartGuard activation in preventing hypoglycemia events in comparison sensor augmented pump (SAP) therapy with Minimed 640G without SmartGuard activation in type 1 diabetic adults with an increased risk of hypoglycemia.

The study should show:

  • A reduction in the number of severe hypoglycemia, fewer hypoglycemic events and a reduction in the time spent in hypoglycemia six months in any group compared to Baseline.
  • A complete prevention of severe and not severe hypoglycemia in the pump group Minimed 640G + Enlite sensor with SmartGuard activation

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of the Minimed 640G insulin pump with Smartguard activation in preventing the number of severe and non-severe hypoglycaemia in patients with diabetes type 1 at risk of severe hypoglycemia

    Number of events of hypoglycemia (severe and non-severe)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Assessment of Improving of overall glycemic control with SmartGuard activation in type 1 diabetic patients at risk of severe hypoglycemia

    Comprehensive metabolic evaluation data and evaluation data of severe hypoglycaemic risk

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Assessment of the quality of life of patients with smartguard activation

    Quality of Life Questionnaire

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Assessment of the number of adverse events

    Assessment of the safety of the sensor augmented pump therapy with the Mimimed 640G insulin pump coupled with a 640G Minimed Enlite sensor with Smart Guard as compare to sensor augmented pump therapy with the Mimimed 640G insulin pump coupled with a 640G Minimed Enlite sensor without Smart Guard activation (Decompensated ketoacidosis, Hospitalization related to severe hypoglycemia or frequent hypoglycemia or moderate decompensation, Materiovigilance data, Collection and monitoring of serious adverse events and non-serious)

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Study of average cost per patient for each therapeutic strategy supported from the point of view of society

    An average cost per patient will be calculated for each strategy. The horizon time is 6 months from randomization of the patient.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Minimed 640G with smartguard activated and Minimed 640G with smartguard off in people with Diabetes, Type 1, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 2 sites in France.

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 6 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 18 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Assessment of the Minimed 640G insulin pump with Smartguard activation in preventing the number of severe and non-severe hypoglycaemia in patients with diabetes type 1 at risk of severe hypoglycemia (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT02657213, 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 18 Oct 2017.
