What is being measured

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

  1. time in range

    percentage of time in range defined as blood glucose between 3.9 and 7.8mmol/l. Blood glucose will be measures continuously while taking the study medication)

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. mean glucose

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

  2. glucose variability

    standard deviation divided by the mean and standard deviation

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

  3. time with level 1 hypoglycemia

    blood glucose 3.0-3.9mmol/l

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

  4. time with level 2 hypoglycemia

    blood glucose less than 3mmol/l

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

  5. time with hyperglycemia

    blood glucose more than 10mmol/l

    Measured: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)

  6. Quality of recovery-15

    Questionnaire assessing the patient's own sense of recovery after surgery

    Measured: every day while taking the study medication and on postoperative day 30

  7. Nanostring

    changes in up- and downregulation of genes

    Measured: at inclusion, on day 4 of treatment and at end of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SGLT2 inhibitor in people with Postoperative Hyperglycemia and Stress Hyperglycemia, run by Zealand University Hospital.

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 4 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 6 Apr 2022. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Emilie Palmgren Colov, MD (+45 61335122, eco@regionsjaelland.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time in range (time frame: from inclusion until 10 days after (or when the patient leaves the hospital)). 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 6 Apr 2022.
