About this study

Official title: Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Versus Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) Versus T2* MRI Of The Pancreas In High-Risk Group (Hemoglobinopathies, Lymphoma & Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia): A Comparative Study

A prospective, observational, comparative study with no intervention.The objective of the study to compare the efficiency of detecting glycemic abnormalities using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGMs) versus Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and HbA1C (Glycated Hemoglobin) and their relation to iron overload detected by T2* MRI of the pancreas in high-risk patients due to insulin deficiency (potential beta cell injury) and those with insulin resistance and to study the different factors that may affect the glycemic control in these patients in relation to their results like the Dose of corticosteroids and chemotherapy in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies, Liver function in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies, and Serum ferritin in Hemoglobinopathies and their transfusion status. Using Validated Tools with Permission, the participants will be selected through probability (random) sampling method with expected subjects numbers ALL/L: 30-50, Thalassemia Major: 20, Sickle cell disease: 20.

Being tested
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), T2* MRI of the Pancreas
Medical subject headings
Iron Overload, Hemoglobinopathies, Lymphoma, Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma

What participants receive

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

  • Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)Diagnostic test

    Where a pager-sized device fixed to the patient's forearm by a diabetic educator and it will connect to his/her body with the sensor, which measures blood glucose for three days. Patients' may experience little pain from needle prick when a sensor is introduced.

  • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)Diagnostic test

    Oral glucose tolerance test requires the patient to be fasting and checking of blood sugar after 8 to 10 hours overnight fasting the blood sugar will be checked three times When you arrive to the lab then twice one hour, apart you can have pain due to needle prick or little bleeding at the puncture site.

  • T2* MRI of the PancreasDiagnostic test

    MRI [Magnetic resonance imaging] of the pancreas which is safe and takes around 30 minutes.

High-Risk GroupThe objective of the study to compare the efficiency of detecting glycemic abnormalities using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGMs) versus Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and HbA1C. versus T2* MRI of the pancreas (T2* MRI of the Pancreas) in high-risk patients due to insulin deficiency (potential beta cell injury) and those with insulin resistance and to study the different factors that may affect the glycemic control in these patients in relation to their results like the Dose of corticosteroids and chemotherapy in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies,Liver function in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies, and Serum ferritin in Hemoglobinopathies and their transfusion status.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM); Diagnostic Test: Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT); Diagnostic Test: T2* MRI of the Pancreas

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficiency of continuous glucose monitoring compared to oral glucose tolerance and MRI of the Pancreas

    Compare the efficiency of detecting glycemic abnormalities using CGMS versus OGTT vs HbA1C. in high-risk patients due to insulin deficiency (potential beta cell injury) and those with insulin resistance. Detect the prevalence of glycemic abnormalities detected in the same group of patients (high-risk patients) using three different modalities of testing (CGMS, OGTT, HbA1C)and T2*MRI for pancreas

    Measured: 12 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Iron Overload and Hemoglobinopathies, run by Hamad Medical Corporation.

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 3 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 26 Jul 2017. 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?

Efficiency of continuous glucose monitoring compared to oral glucose tolerance and MRI of the Pancreas (time frame: 12 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 NCT03141398, which also lists 14 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 26 Jul 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
