About this study

Official title: Does the Use of Faster Insulin Aspart vs. Aspart Lead to the Prolonged Glycemic Time in Range in Children Suffering From Type 1 Diabetes Who Use Continuous Glucose Monitoring?

The aim of the study is to assess whether the implementation of faster insulin aspart in children with Type 1 diabetes treated with intensive insulin therapy with the use of an insulin pump and using Real Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring (RT-CGM) systems leads to prolonged time in range (TIR) compared to insulin aspart.

What participants receive

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

  • Insulin faster aspart (Fiasp, Novo Nordisk)Drug

    Also called Insulin aspart (Novo Rapid, Novo Nordisk)

    Duration of the study: 10 weeks.

    It is assumed that the patients will attend 4 visits in Pediatric Diabetology Clinic, and 3 telephone consultations.

    W0: The study will start with a 2-week run-in period in order to normalize glycemia.

    W1: RT-CGM will be inserted. Subsequently, the participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups (Fa-A or A-Fa), basing on which the order of insulin use will be determined.

    W2: after 2 weeks, diabetology telephone consultation (washout period).

    W3: after 2 weeks, diabetology consultation. Changing insulin type according to the allocation.

    W4: after 2 weeks, diabetology telephone consultation (washout period).

    W5: after 2 weeks, diabetology telephone consultation.

    W6: the results obtained throughout the study will be discussed with the patient and the parent.

What is being measured

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

  1. Glycaemia difference in time in range (TIR) 70-180mg/dl

    Measured: at week 4 of the study

  2. Glycaemia difference in time in range (TIR) 70-180mg/dl

    Measured: at week 8 of the study

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Glycaemia difference in time below range (TBR)

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

  2. Glycaemia difference in time above range (TAR)

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

  3. Glycaemia difference in the coefficient of variation (CV)

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

  4. Difference in the average glycemia levels + standard deviation

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

  5. Difference in Total Daily Dose (TDD) of insulin

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

  6. Difference in the basal rate of insulin

    Measured: at weeks 4 and 8 of the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin faster aspart (Fiasp, Novo Nordisk) in people with Diabetes type1 and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Medical University of Warsaw.

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 3 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 26 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Emilia Kowalczyk, MD (+48 223179538, emilia.kowalczyk@uckwum.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glycaemia difference in time in range (TIR) 70-180mg/dl (time frame: at week 4 of the study). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Feb 2021.
