About this study

Official title: Safety and Feasibility Study of a Hybrid Closed-loop Insulin Delivery System for Children and Young Adults With High Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

The overall objective of this pilot study is to determine the safety and feasibility of a hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system for children and young adults with high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia, during the induction chemotherapy phase while they are exposed to steroids and asparaginase that cause hyperglycemia.

Read the detailed description

The overall objective of this pilot study is to determine the safety and feasibility of a hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system for children and young adults with high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia, during the induction chemotherapy phase while they are exposed to steroids and asparaginase that cause hyperglycemia. Insulin therapy would be beneficial in reducing hyperglycemia-associated complications in this period and thereby could improve other outcomes. The primary objective of the current pilot proposal is to demonstrate that hybrid closed loop pump therapy is a safe to be used in children and young adults with high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia. If successful, the results of this study will be used to plan and support a larger, multi-center clinical trial and a grant proposal.

What participants receive

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

  • Hybrid Closed Loop SystemDevice

    Also called Tandem Control-IQ Professional Hybrid Closed Loop system

    Participants will utilize the Tandem Control-IQ Professional Hybrid Closed Loop artificial pancreas system [25, 26]. This device consists of the Dexcom G6 Continuous glucose monitor (or a more recent interoperable CGM), the Tandem t:slim X2 continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pump, and the Control-IQ professional hybrid closed loop control algorithm. The CGM is generally replaced by parents or patients and then replaced after sensor expiration or if it falls off. This CGM, like all future iCGMs, is factory calibrated and approved for direct dosing of insulin. In addition, while the system is in use, patients will conduct blood glucose level checks at least four times a day with a fingerstick and calibrate the CGM if the measurements differ by more than 20 mg/dL of fingerstick blood glucose level. The t:slim X2 insulin pump delivers rapid acting insulin via a subcutaneous cannula which is placed by parents or patients and then replaced every 3 days [30].

What is being measured

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

  1. CGM Time in hypoglycemia (blood glucose < 70 mg/dL)

    The primary outcome measures for this study will be the safety of HCL insulin delivery by hypoglycemia exposure. One of the primary endpoints is CGM Time in hypoglycemia (defined as blood glucose < 70 mg/dL).

    Measured: 35 days

  2. Number of episodes of symptomatic hypoglycemia

    The primary outcome measures for this study will be the safety of HCL insulin delivery by hypoglycemia exposure. One of the primary endpoints is the number of episodes of symptomatic hypoglycemia. At each study visit, subjects will be asked about symptoms, such as shakiness, dizziness, blurred/impaired vision, sweating, pallor, clumsiness, difficulty paying attention, tingling around the lips, tongue or cheeks, change in mental status, or seizure.

    Measured: 35 days

  3. Rate of infection at the CGM insertion site

    Rate of infection at the CGM insertion site, measured in occurrences per patient-day.

    Measured: 35 days

  4. Rate of bleeding at the CGM insertion site

    Rate of bleeding at the CGM insertion site, measured in occurrence per patient-day.

    Measured: 35 days

  5. Rate of infection at the HCL insulin infusion site

    Rate of infection at the HCL insulin infusion site, measured in occurrence per patient-day.

    Measured: 35 days

  6. Rate of bleeding at the HCL insulin infusion site

    Rate of bleeding at the HCL insulin infusion site, measured in occurrence per patient-day.

    Measured: 35 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Efficacy of glycemic control with HCL insulin delivery assessed by Time in Ranges (TIR)

    Time in Ranges (TIRs) refers to percent of the time spent in a specific range of blood glucose levels, adding valuable information to assess the level of glycemic control. Usually a range of 70-180 mg/dL is used, but occasionally a more stringent 70-140 mg/dL is used. In this study, we will obtain %CGM TIRs in both ranges.

    Measured: 35 days

  2. Efficacy of glycemic control with HCL insulin delivery assessed by mean sensor glucose level

    Mean glucose level will be obtained from CGM data to evaluate for glycemic variability

    Measured: 35 days

  3. Rate of infection in episodes per patient-days

    Rate of infection, length of hospitalization, length of PICU admission, rate of remission at the end of induction, and need for re-admission will be obtained as a part of clinical outcomes. These outcomes will be compared to a historical control group to investigate the effect size of relationships between glycemic control and clinical outcome. This exploratory aim will investigate correlations between glycemic control and outcomes to determine effect sizes for future studies and grant proposals.

    Measured: 35 days

  4. Length of hospitalization in days per patient

    Rate of infection, length of hospitalization, length of PICU admission, rate of remission at the end of induction, and need for re-admission will be obtained as a part of clinical outcomes. These outcomes will be compared to a historical control group to investigate the effect size of relationships between glycemic control and clinical outcome. This exploratory aim will investigate correlations between glycemic control and outcomes to determine effect sizes for future studies and grant proposals.

    Measured: 35 days

  5. Length of PICU admission in days per patient

    Rate of infection, length of hospitalization, length of PICU admission, rate of remission at the end of induction, and need for re-admission will be obtained as a part of clinical outcomes. These outcomes will be compared to a historical control group to investigate the effect size of relationships between glycemic control and clinical outcome. This exploratory aim will investigate correlations between glycemic control and outcomes to determine effect sizes for future studies and grant proposals.

    Measured: 35 days

  6. Rate of remission at the end of induction in percent

    Rate of infection, length of hospitalization, length of PICU admission, rate of remission at the end of induction, and need for re-admission will be obtained as a part of clinical outcomes. These outcomes will be compared to a historical control group to investigate the effect size of relationships between glycemic control and clinical outcome. This exploratory aim will investigate correlations between glycemic control and outcomes to determine effect sizes for future studies and grant proposals.

    Measured: 35 days

  7. Need for readmission during the induction phase in percent

    Rate of infection, length of hospitalization, length of PICU admission, rate of remission at the end of induction, and need for re-admission will be obtained as a part of clinical outcomes. These outcomes will be compared to a historical control group to investigate the effect size of relationships between glycemic control and clinical outcome. This exploratory aim will investigate correlations between glycemic control and outcomes to determine effect sizes for future studies and grant proposals.

    Measured: 35 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Hybrid Closed Loop System in people with High Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, 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 5 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2024. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Low Accrual). 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?

CGM Time in hypoglycemia (blood glucose < 70 mg/dL) (time frame: 35 days). The study lists 6 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 3 May 2024.
