Trial summary

Disorders of glucose metabolism, such as impaired glucose intolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus (DM), frequently occur in cirrhosis. However, it has been underestimated when fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels are considered. Read more about this study

About this study

Disorders of glucose metabolism, such as impaired glucose intolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus (DM), frequently occur in cirrhosis. However, it has been underestimated when fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels are considered. We aimed to evaluate who needs to be undertaken a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to find underlying subclinical diabetes.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04828512
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
normal glucose tolerance (NGT)In the 75-g OGTT, an FPG level of < 100 mg/dL or a 120-min PG level of < 140 was diagnosed as NGT.
impaired glucose intolerance (IGT)In the 75-g OGTT, an FPG level of 100-125 mg/dL (5.6-6.9 mmol/L) or a 120-min PG level of 140-200 mg/dL (7.8-11.1 mmol/L) was diagnosed as IGT.
newly diagnosed DM (subclinical DM)In the 75-g OGTT, a basal FPG level ˃126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) or a 120-min PG level ˃200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) was considered as newly diagnosed DM (hereafter referred to as subclinical DM).

What is being measured

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

    hepatic encephalopathy (HE), the development of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), acute kidney injury (AKI), variceal bleeding, and infection

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver Cirrhosis, run by Yonsei University.

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 2 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 2 Apr 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.

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?

Survival (time frame: through study completion, an average of 3 year). 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 NCT04828512, 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 2 Apr 2021.
