About this study

Official title: Effectiveness and Safety Study of the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System in Pediatric Populations

This study is a non-randomized, single-arm, multi-center study that is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring Systems in pediatric populations.

Read the detailed description

Up to 100 subjects will be enrolled at up to six (6) clinical research sites in the United States. Subjects will wear two Sensors. Each Sensor will have a paired Reader that will be given to the subject. All Readers will be masked during the study (i.e. subjects will not be able to view glucose results obtained from the Sensor on the Reader screen). Subjects will be asked to perform at least 4 capillary Blood Glucose (BG) tests per day using the primary Reader. Interstitial glucose readings from each Sensor will be obtained with the corresponding Readers immediately following each BG test. Subjects will be instructed to report any problems with the device. Subjects will make two (2) to five (5) scheduled visits to the clinical study site, including the Enrollment/Screening Visit (Visit 1). Based on the subjects age and weight, subjects will have up to two (2) in-clinic visits during which intravenous blood draws and Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) reference testing will occur.

What participants receive

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

  • FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring SystemDevice

    Subjects will wear the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System and will receive no treatment except for safety purposes.

What is being measured

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

  1. System Performance

    System performance will be characterized with respect to YSI reference venous plasma sample measurements for subjects aged 6 and older. Capillary blood glucose (BG) reference will be used for subjects aged less than 6 years of age.

    For subjects age 6 years and older, point accuracy of the system will be evaluated as the proportion of System readings that are within ±20% of the YSI reference value for YSI glucose levels ≥ 80 mg/dL and within ±20 mg/dL for YSI glucose levels <80 mg/dL. For subjects of age less than 6 years, ages 4 and older the system will be evaluated as the proportion of System readings that are within ±20% of the BG reference value for BG glucose levels ≥ 80 mg/dL and within ±20 mg/dL for BG glucose levels <80 mg/dL.

    Measured: Up to 14 days

  2. System Related adverse device effects

    System will be characterized by Adverse Device Effects and Serious Adverse Device Effects experienced by study participants.

    Measured: up to 45 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabete Mellitus, run by Abbott Diabetes Care 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 11 inclusion and 10 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 30 Jul 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 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?

System Performance (time frame: Up to 14 days). 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 30 Jul 2018.
