Trial summary

Many teenagers do not get enough sleep. Obesity and diabetes are increasing in teenagers as well. This study plans to learn more about sleep and insulin resistance (insulin not working) in teenagers, and how these things may be related depending on sleep. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Impact of Sleep Extension on Insulin Sensitivity and Dietary Intake in Adolescents

Many teenagers do not get enough sleep. Obesity and diabetes are increasing in teenagers as well. This study plans to learn more about sleep and insulin resistance (insulin not working) in teenagers, and how these things may be related depending on sleep. This is important to know so that the investigators understand how sleep may play a role in health conditions like extra weight gain (increased food intake and less physical activity) and diabetes. To answer this question, the investigators plan to enroll teenagers who get <7 hours of sleep on school nights and measure changes in insulin sensitivity and dietary intake after a week of typical sleep (sleeping on their normal school schedule) and a week of longer sleep (spending 1+ hour longer in bed each night).

What participants receive

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

  • Sleep ExtensionBehavioural

    Participants will be asked to increase time in bed at least 1 hour more than baseline

Study groups in NCT03500458
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Typical SleepNo interventionAll participants will sleep for 6 nights (Sunday - Thursday) in the home environment per their usual school schedule.
Sleep ExtensionExperimentalParticipants will be prescribed a sleep schedule that allows them to obtain 1 hour more time in bed compared to Typical Sleep. For participants completing the study September 2021 and later, they will also be instructed to take exogenous melatonin (500mcg) and maintain dim light conditions 2 hours before bedtime, and use light glasses for 30 minutes in an upright position after waking in the morning (Sleep Extension + Circadian Manipulation).
Receives: Behavioral: Sleep Extension

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Insulin Sensitivity

    Insulin sensitivity assessed two times with an insulin-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test.

    Measured: 2 weeks after Baseline and 7 weeks after Baseline

  2. Change in Sleep Duration & Timing

    Assessed three times with a wrist-worn Actigraphy

    Measured: At Baseline, 1 week after Baseline, and 6 weeks after Baseline

  3. Change in Physical activity

    Assessed three times with a triaxial thigh-worn ActivPal

    Measured: At Baseline, 1 week after Baseline and 6 weeks after Baseline

  4. Change in Dietary Intake

    Participants will be asked to complete diet diaries two times for 3 days during each sleep condition (prior to each overnight assessment), listing all food and drink consumed, estimated portion size, and timing of consumption.

    Measured: 1 week after Baseline and 6 weeks after Baseline

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in glycemic variability

    Assessed two times with a continuous glucose monitor

    Measured: 2 weeks after Baseline and 7 weeks after Baseline

  2. MTNR1B rs10830963 SNP

    Genotyping will be conducted on saliva samples

    Measured: 2 weeks after Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep Extension in people with Insulin Sensitivity and Sleep, run by University of Colorado, Denver 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 5 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 Insulin Sensitivity (time frame: 2 weeks after Baseline and 7 weeks after Baseline). The study lists 4 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 1 Oct 2024.
