About this study

Official title: Fiber-enriched Buckwheat Pasta Reduces Daily Glucose Variability in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes and Celiac Disease: an Acute Randomized Controlled Trial

The intervention was preceded by a 1-week run-in period during which participants underwent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and filled in a 7-day dietary record to optimize basal infusion rate and insulin-to-glycemic load ratio. The study had a randomized crossover design with each subject studied on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart. Participants were assigned to consume, in random order, two test meals with the same amount of carbohydrates (50g): a meal containing fiber-enriched buckwheat pasta (FBP) or corn pasta (CP), used as control. Over the experimental period, participants underwent CGM, wearing their sensors 7 days/week.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acute test meal with fiber-enriched buckwheat pasta and Acute test meal with corn pasta in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Celiac Disease, run by Federico II University at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2017. 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 Italy. 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?

Postprandial glucose response (time frame: 6 hours). 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 21 Dec 2017.
