Study population: Adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus

Who may be able to join

  • Signed consent obtained before any study-related activities (study-related activities are any procedures related to recording of data according to protocol)

  • Diagnosed with T1DM at least 1 year prior to inclusion in the study
  • Stable treatment by MDI/CSII for at least 6 months prior to inclusion in the study. Stable treatment is defined as not changing the treatment method, with dose adjustments allowed
  • Regular (defined as usage on a monthly basis) user of Freestyle Libre® flash glucose monitoring for at least 6 months as the only continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system actively used and availability of a full 2 weeks sensor download as "csv" file with 80% completeness of the data (if more sensor data are available, the 2 week data closest to baseline visit will be used)

Who cannot join

  • Previous participation in this study. Participation is defined as having given informed consent in this study
  • Mental incapacity, unwillingness or language barriers precluding adequate understanding or cooperation
  • Anti-diabetic treatment intensification during the last 3 months prior to inclusion in the study. Treatment intensification is defined as adding new anti-diabetic medication to previous treatment regimen
  • Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of child-bearing potential and not using adequate contraceptive methods.

About this study

Official title: Impact of Fiasp® on Glycaemic Control in a Real World Population With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Using Flash Glucose Monitoring

The purpose of this study is to collect information about Fiasp® to evaluate how effective Fiasp® is in treating elevated blood sugar in patients with type 1 diabetes, compared with the participant's previous insulin treatment. The study will also assess how satisfied the participants are with the treatment with Fiasp® and the impact of the treatment on quality of life. The study has also been set up to learn more about how effective Fiasp® is in controlling the glucose levels during the day and night. The duration of the study is expected to be approximately 2 years. The participation is expected to be approximately 6-8 months for each patient.

Being tested
Fast-acting insulin aspart
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

What participants receive

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

  • Fast-acting insulin aspartDrug

    Also called Fiasp®

    Patients will be treated with commercially available fast-acting insulin aspart as bolus insulin (multiple daily injection [MDI]) or as insulin used in the insulin pumps (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion [CSII]). Dosing of fast-acting insulin aspart is individual and determined by the treating physician in accordance with the needs of the patient.

Study groups in NCT03450863
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Fast-acting insulin aspartParticipants will receive fast-acting insulin aspart at the treating physician's discretion as part of the usual clinical practice. The prescription and use of fast-acting insulin aspart is completely independent of this study. Total study duration for the individual patient will be approximately 24 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Fast-acting insulin aspart

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    Measure in % point

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 24 ± 4 weeks after baseline)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in Patient Reported Outcome: Impact of treatment measured by the overall score obtained from the Treatment Related Impact Measure For Diabetes (TRIM-D) questionnaire

    The TRIM-D Device is an eight item measure with two domains assessing Device Bother and Device Function. This captures information on the ease of use, convenience, and handling of the device(s) used to take diabetes medication. The measure has acceptable reliability, validity and ability to detect change.

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 24 ± 4 weeks)

  2. Change in Patient Reported Outcomes: Treatment satisfaction measured by the overall score obtained from the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ)

    The DTSQs questionnaire will be used to assess subject's treatment satisfaction. This instrument contains 8 items and measures the treatment for your diabetes (including insulin, tablets and/or diet) in terms of convenience, flexibility and general feelings regarding treatment.

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 24 ± 4 weeks)

  3. Change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG)

    Measured in mmol/L

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), week 12 (±4 weeks)

  4. Change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG)

    Measured in mmol/L

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 24 ±4 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 Diabetes, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Germany.

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 7 inclusion and 4 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 Mar 2020. 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 Germany. 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?

Change in Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) (time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 24 ± 4 weeks after baseline)). 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 NCT03450863, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Mar 2020.
