About this study

The current research project aims to assess the insulin resistance (less sensitivity), from measures of insulin and glucose in response to a standard oral intake of glucose (standardized oral glucose tolerance test). For this, we wish to test and validate the method of glucose labelled 13-C (stable isotope) breath test in comparison with standardized methods to measure glucose and insulin. Comparative methods that will be used are measures of glycemia from venous blood withdrawal and continuous glucose measurement in the skin tissue (external face of the arm) using the Abbott's freestyle libre system.

Repeatability and reliability of the 13-C glucose breath test will be checked from repeated measures over time.

What participants receive

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

  • 75 gr GlucoseOther

    Also called oral glucose intake

    75g of anhydrous glucose dissolved in 375 ml of water (Vittel) mixed with 150mg of U-13C]-glucose (stable isotope from Eurisotope, France). will be orally taken

What is being measured

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

  1. 1) To assess the within-subjects variability and overall repeatability of the 13C-glucose breath test

    repeated measure of breath over the 3 visits.

    Measured: 0 to 300 minutes, after oral administration

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Compare the results of breath test and CGM with the classical indexes of insulin resistance after an oral glucose challenge (OGTT) containing a small amount of [U13C]-glucose.

    repeated measure over the 3 visits of breath, plasma and CGM values

    Measured: 0 to 300 minutes, after oral adminstration

  2. Repeatability of the continuous glucose monitoring system (CGM)

    repeated measure over the 3 visits of breath, plasma and CGM values

    Measured: 0 to 300 minutes, after oral adminstration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 75 gr Glucose in people with Insulin Sensitivity/Resistance, run by Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN) at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 1 inclusion and 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2025. 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 Switzerland. 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?

1) To assess the within-subjects variability and overall repeatability of the 13C-glucose breath test (time frame: 0 to 300 minutes, after oral administration). 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 9 Jan 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
