About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Faster Aspart in Insulin Pumps in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Single-center Study With Real-world Data

This is an exploratory, single-center retrospective cohort real-world study comparing safety and efficacy of Fiasp® versus NovoRapid® when used in the Medtronic MiniMed 640G system in pediatric subjects with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Read the detailed description

This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of faster-acting insulin aspart (Fiasp®) compared with rapid-acting insulin analogues (insulin aspart or insulin lispro) in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus using insulin pump therapy.

The study is a single-center retrospective cohort study including real-world clinical data from pediatric patients followed at the Pediatric Diabetes Outpatient Clinic of the 1st Pediatric Department of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, at Ippokratio General Hospital.

Clinical and continuous glucose monitoring data were collected from medical records during routine clinical follow-up. Patients were treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion using insulin pumps equipped with continuous glucose monitoring systems.

The primary objective was to evaluate glycemic control using continuous glucose monitoring metrics, with particular emphasis on time in range (70-180 mg/dL). Secondary outcomes included time spent in hypoglycemia (<70 mg/dL), time spent in hyperglycemia (>180 mg/dL and >250 mg/dL), glycemic variability, total daily insulin dose, basal and bolus insulin distribution, and other pump-related parameters.

Comparisons were performed between patients receiving faster-acting insulin aspart and those receiving rapid-acting insulin analogues during routine clinical care.

Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Being tested
Fast-acting insulin aspart, Rapid-acting insulin analogues (insulin aspart or insulin lispro)
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 1 Diabetes, run by Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki at 1 site in Greece.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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 11 Mar 2026. 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 Greece. 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?

1-hour glucose levels on Fiasp (time frame: Weeks 1 to 4). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04149262, 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 11 Mar 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
