About this study

Official title: The Glooko Diabetes Mobile Monitoring and Management Advantage Study

The purpose of this study is to compare HbA1c of insulin-treated subjects with type 2 diabetes managed via usual care alone and usual care augmented with remote monitoring using Glooko

Read the detailed description

In this study, the investigator wants to evaluate if diabetes self-management supported by a mobile application, which captures a subject's blood glucose readings, lifestyle and medication information and shares it with the subject's certified diabetes educator (CDE) to enable remote monitoring, improves their glycemic control compared to standard of care.

Study groups in NCT02974816
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Standard of CareNo interventionSubjects in this arm will visit their physician once every 3 months and will receive usual care.
Remote MonitoringExperimentalSubjects in this arm will visit their physician once every 3 months and will receive usual care. In addition, in between clinic visits, subjects will measure their blood glucose (BG) readings at least once a day and share their BG readings with their CDE using Glooko's mobile application. Once a week, the CDE will review the subject's BG readings on Glooko's population tracker and reach out to the subjects if he/she experienced clinical incident(s). During the conversation, the CDE will either recommend medication or lifestyle modification to address the clinical incident.
Receives: Device: Glooko's mobile application

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 14 inclusion and 5 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 3 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Change in HbA1c from baseline (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 NCT02974816, which also lists 8 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 3 Jun 2021.
