About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Remote Intervention by Medical Staff Based on a Cloud System of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Data in Patients With Insulin-dependent Diabetes Using a Flash Sensor-based Glucose Monitoring (FSGM)

To investigate the efficacy of remote intervention by medical staff based on a cloud system of continuous glucose monitoring data in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes using flash sensor-based glucose monitoring (FSGM).

Read the detailed description
  • Previous studies have been reported on the efficacy of CGM or FSGM and education on glucose control in insulin-dependent diabetes patients.
  • This study aims to investigate whether it is more effective to receive remote intervention by medical staff based on a cloud system, than only to use FSGM and receive general education on FSGM.
  • Trial design : parallel group, allocation ratio 1:1, a superiority study design

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2022. 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 South Korea. 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?

Changes in glycemic control measured by HbA1c (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT04936633, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 25 Oct 2022.
