About this study

Official title: Successful Transition From Insulin Pump to Multiple Daily Injections Using Insulin Degludec in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes

This randomized controlled, two arms, investigator initiated, intervention study is aimed to examine an investigational approach in contrast to the clinical standard of 1:1 dose basal insulin conversion in an attempt to lower the incidence and/or duration of hyperglycemia after transition from insulin pump to multiple daily injections in adults with type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Second generation long acting insulin, insulin degludec, has been shown to improve glycemic control and reduce hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes and insulin treated type 2 diabetes. However, it takes about 48 hours before glycemic benefits are noticeable. Therefore, transition from insulin pump to multiple daily injection using insulin degludec is associated with hyperglycemia during first 48 hours of transition. Considering this, this study proposes to evaluate an investigational strategy to improve glycemic control during transition from insulin pump to multiple daily injections using insulin degludec and insulin aspart.

Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Multiple daily ijnection using Insulin Degludec and Insulin AspartDrug

    Drug: Insulin Degludec and insulin Aspart Pharmaceutical form: Solution for injection Route of administration: Subcutaneous

Study groups in NCT03987191
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Standard of Care TransitionActive comparatorStopping of insulin pump on the day of randomization and starting insulin degludec in 1:1 ratio (same units as total basal insulin on pump) and insulin Aspart for meals and corrections
Receives: Drug: Multiple daily ijnection using Insulin Degludec and Insulin Aspart
Inverstigational TransitionExperimentalAdministration of insulin degludec in 1:1 ratio (same units as total basal insulin on pump) on the day of randomization AND concomitant use of the insulin pump for 48 hours from transition, where insulin pump basal rate will be reduced by 50% during the first 24 hours from transition and by 75% during 24 to 48 hours from transition. Insulin pump will be disconnected after 48 hours from transition
Receives: Drug: Multiple daily ijnection using Insulin Degludec and Insulin Aspart

What is being measured

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

  1. Time Spent With CGM Glucose Levels >180mg/dl Between Two Groups

    The primary outcome will be time spent in CGM glucose >180 mg/dL (hyperglycemia) during 7days of randomization period between two groups.

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Time Spent in CGM-measured "Time-in-range"(Glucose Levels ≥70 mg /dl and ≤180 mg/dl) Between Two Groups

    CGM TIR between two groups

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

  2. Time Spent in CGM-measured Hypoglycemia < 70 mg/dl Between Two Groups

    CGM time below 70 between two groups

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

  3. Number of Participants With Severe Hypoglycemia as Defined by the ADA (Severe Cognitive Impairment Requiring External Assistance for Recovery) and Severe Hyperglycemia (BG≥250 Needing Hospitalization) Between Two Groups

    Frequency of SH and DKA between two groups

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

  4. Number of Boluses (Correction Boluses) Between Groups During First 72 Hours of Randomization

    no of correction boluses between two groups

    Measured: 72 hours from the randomization

  5. Insulin Delivery Satisfaction (IDSS Survey) Between Two Groups

    PRO between two groups. The Insulin delivery satisfaction survey (IDSS) measures diabetes patients' satisfaction with their insulin delivery system. Possible scores range from 1-5, with higher scores indicating higher satisfaction and a better outcome.

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

  6. Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI:SHP Version 2 Questionnaire) Between Two Groups

    PRO between two groups

    Measured: 7 days from the randomization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Multiple daily ijnection using Insulin Degludec and Insulin Aspart in people with Type 1 Diabetes, 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 9 inclusion and 22 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 13 Sep 2021. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Sep 2021). 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?

Time Spent With CGM Glucose Levels >180mg/dl Between Two Groups (time frame: 7 days from the randomization). 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 13 Sep 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
