About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Two Different Glucose Monitoring Treatments and Their Impact on Time in Target, Sleep and Quality of Life in Children With Type 1 Diabetes and Primary Caregivers.

The study is an open label single centre randomised cross over study to evaluate the impact of a sensor augmented pump (SAP) with a predictive algorithm to suspend temporarily insulin administration (640G® with the Smart Guard feature) versus the use of the same pump for insulin administration with 'only' continuous glucose measurements (not interacting with the pump, Freestyle Libre ® ) on the time in glucose target , in hypo- and hyperglycemia. Exploratory endpoints are the effect on sleep and quality of life in children with type 1 diabetes and their caregivers.

Read the detailed description

Optimising metabolic control in children with Type 1Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is essential to prevent late complications. Fear of nocturnal hypoglycemia is pervasive amongst parents of children with T1DM, leading to a heightened vigilance by parents to control regularly their children's blood sugar values or to check the sensor information during the night. This leads to chronic sleep interruption and to lack of sleep as well in the parents as in their children with diabetes.

In this study, the impact of new technologies on glucose time in target , hypo fear and quality of life will be evaluated, using continuous interstitial glucose measurements either with a direct impact on insulin administration (640G medtronic pump (R)) and with alerts , or without impact on insulin administration and without alerts.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time in glucose target

    Percent time in glucose target (3.9 -8 mmol/l) , measured by blinded CGM

    Measured: Last 6 days of treatment arm A and last 6 days of treatment arm B

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. time below glucose target

    Percent time spent below glucose target (<3.0mmol/l and < 2,5 mmol/l) measured by blinded CGM (I-Pro 2)

    Measured: Last 6 days of treatment arm A and last 6 days of treatment arm B

  2. Time above glucose target

    Percent time spent above glucose target (>10.0mmol/l ) measured by blinded CGM (I-Pro 2)

    Measured: Last 6 days of treatment arm A and last 6 days of treatment arm B

  3. Sleep quantity in patients and caregivers

    Total sleep and wake time , number of awakenings measured by wireless actigraph

    Measured: baselines ( before treatment arm starts) and last week of treatment arm A and last week of treatment arm B

  4. perception of quality of sleep and quality of life in patients and caregivers

    validated questionnaires

    Measured: baseline and last week of treatment arm A and last week of treatment arm B

  5. hypoglycaemia fear in patients and caregivers

    Hypoglycemia fear survey for parents and children

    Measured: baseline and last week of treatment arm A and last week of treatment arm B

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 3 Aug 2018. 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 Luxembourg. 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?

Time in glucose target (time frame: Last 6 days of treatment arm A and last 6 days of treatment arm B). 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 NCT03103867, which also lists 3 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 Aug 2018.
