About this study

The study is a prospective unblinded randomized trial to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a sleep extension intervention trial and the sleep extension intervention among the young adults. The study also wants to assess whether a sleep-extension intervention has an impact on the insulin resistance levels of young adults. The intervention consists of an education session and to extend the sleep time at least one hour but can be up to 2 hours per night for 4 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Insulin Resistance has been shown to put a person at risk for developing Type II diabetes. There is a correlation between sleep deprivation and insulin resistance.The study wants to assess the feasibility by enrolling 20 subjects in a year. The study also wants to assess the feasibility of the sleep extension intervention among young adults by examining the number of subjects that are randomized to intervention arm will complete the study.

Another intent of the study is to examine how sleep behaviors affect risks for developing type 2 diabetes and to determine their willingness to participate in a 4-week home-based program (intervention) focused on personal sleep behaviors.

Subjects enrolled in the study and are randomized to intervention group and control group. The intervention group will receive one education session consisting of strategies for sleep hygiene which is the routine for going to sleep and instructions on extending time in bed by at least one hour but can be up to 2 hours total per night for 4 weeks. At the end of 4 weeks subjects will have a blood draw and will complete the questionnaires.

What participants receive

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

  • SLEEP-Extend interventionBehavioural

    1. One education session (5-10 minutes) consisting of strategies for sleep hygiene which is the routine for going to sleep
    2. Instructions on extending time in bed by at least one hour but can be up to 2 hours total per night for 4 weeks which can be accomplished by either going to bed earlier or staying in bed later
  • ControlOther

    Control group will receive 1. One educational session (5-10 minutes) consisting of safety practices used for an urban environment (a safety brochure and safety information will be given and reviewed with the subject)

Interventional GroupExperimentalIntervention Group (SLEEP-Extend intervention): The SLEEP-Extend intervention consists of two components: 1. One education session (5-10 minutes) consisting of strategies for sleep hygiene which is the routine for going to sleep (an investigator-developed brochure and information based on recommendations from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the National Sleep Foundation will be given and reviewed with the subject) 2. Instructions on extending time in bed by at least one hour but can be up to 2 hours total per night for 4 weeks which can be accomplished by either going to bed earlier or staying in bed later (subject will decide what works best for them).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Enrollments in the Study Over One Year

    Feasibility of the study is assessed by number of enrollments in the study over a one year period. Study proposes to enroll minimum 20 subjects to meet the feasibility of the study.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  2. Number of Participants Enrolled in the Intervention Arm Who Complete the Study

    Feasibility of the SLEEP-Extend intervention among young adults is measured by number of participants enrolled in the intervention arm that received the intervention and completed the study required protocols for the study duration of 4 weeks.

    Measured: Week 4

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) Scores

    The HOMA-IR score is used to measure severity of insulin resistance, though normal insulin resistance varies depending on the population. HOMA-IR is calculated as blood glucose level (nmol/L) multiplied by insulin level (microU/L), divided by 22.5. Elevated values indicate insulin resistance. A cutoff score of HOMA-IR < 2.1 is considered normal and HOMA-IR ≥ 2.1 is considered to be evidence of insulin resistance.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4

  2. Hours of Sleep

    Using wrist actigraphy, this study will objectively monitor each participant's 24-hour sleep-wake cycle to obtain average sleep duration (total sleep time) over one week.

    Measured: Over a 1 week period at Baseline, and over a 1 week period at Week 4

  3. Number of Participants Extending Sleep

    Sleep extension is assessed as the number of participants extending their nightly sleep by 1 to 2 hours from the baseline visit to the week 4 visit, as monitored using wrist actigraphy to measure each participant's 24-hour sleep-wake cycle to obtain average sleep duration (total sleep time) over one week.

    Measured: Over a 1 week period at Baseline, and over a 1 week period at Week 4

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SLEEP-Extend intervention in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Emory University at 2 sites 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 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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.

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Dec 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Enrollments in the Study Over One Year (time frame: Up to 12 months). 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?
