About this study
Sphingolipids are associated with metabolic diseases. Distribution of plasma sphingolipids in type 1 and type 2 diabetes has never been studied. The objective of the CERADIAB study is to compare plasma sphingoliplids concentrations in type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients.
Read the detailed description
Sphingolipids represent a major class of lipids that are structural and signaling molecules. Major bioactive sphingolipids include ceramide, dihydroceramide, sphingosine, sphingosine-1-phosphate and sphingomyelin.
Sphingoliplids are involved in development of various chronic metabolic diseases. Some ceramides species are implicated in pancreatic β-cell apoptosis and in insulin resistance in muscle, fat and liver. Some studies have shown association between inhibition of ceramide synthesis, insulin sensibility and lower hepatic steatosis. The deposition of hepatic lipids, especially triacylglycerol, defines the development of hepatic steatosis. However, sphingolipids appear to play an important role in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and in its progression. Changes in plasma shingolipids concentrations may also contribute to the pathogenesis in cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Distribution of plasma sphingolipids concentrations in type 1 and type 2 diabetes has poorly been studied.
The objective of the CERADIAB study is to compare plasma sphingoliplids concentrations in type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Comparison of plasma total ceramides concentration in type 2 diabetic patients versus type 1 diabetic patients.
Three-hundred microlitres of plasma were used to quantify dihydroceramides, ceramides, sphingomyelins and sphingosine content. The lipid subspecies were extracted and analysed by Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), at the Lipidomic Core Facility of the University of Bourgogne (Dijon, France).
Measured: Samples taken in 1 single time in the morning, patients fast for 12 hours, on 1 single day

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Groupe Hospitalier Pitie-Salpetriere at 1 site in France.
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 1 inclusion and 5 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 18 Oct 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 France. 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?
Comparison of plasma total ceramides concentration in type 2 diabetic patients versus type 1 diabetic patients. (time frame: Samples taken in 1 single time in the morning, patients fast for 12 hours, on 1 single day). 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 18 Oct 2018.
