What participants receive

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

  • SmartAlbuDevice

    Plan:

    1. Consent an individual
    2. Measure and record temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, height and weight
    3. Obtain two samples of saliva for the SmartAlbu portable salivary sensor
    4. Take a venous blood sample for HbA1c and
    5. Glycated albumin
    6. Obtain blood sample from a finger stick for point of care HbA1c device
Study groups in NCT03235492
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SmartAlbuExperimentalIf a participant agrees, after obtaining informed consent, the investigator will measure and record temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, height and weight. The participant will be given detailed instruction on how to hold the container and will be asked to spit (or deposit) their saliva up to the indicated line. The procedure will be performed twice to study the reproducibility of the test. The participant will then be asked to have a standard blood draw of 2-3 mls of blood into a vacutainer tube for analysis of HbA1c at the central lab and 1-2 mls of blood for glycated albumin for assay analysis, and a finger stick for point of care HbA1c measurement.
Receives: Device: SmartAlbu

What is being measured

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

  1. Salivary glycated albumin vs. blood glycated albumin

    Whether the ratio of glycated albumin and total albumin in saliva is equivalent to blood.

    Measured: 30 min

  2. Salivary glycated albumin vs. glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)

    To investigate whether the non-invasive SmartAlbu portable salivary sensor is as accurate as standard tests that measure HbA1c.

    Measured: 30 min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SmartAlbu in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore at 1 site in United States.

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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2023. 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 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 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?

Salivary glycated albumin vs. blood glycated albumin (time frame: 30 min). 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?
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 20 Dec 2023.
