Trial summary

This research is being done to find out whether subjects previously treated with the implantable insulin pump (IIP) therapy, and now taking insulin by injection, will benefit from re-implantation of IIP. The investigators will see if IIP causes more stable control of blood sugar, with fewer highs and lows. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Reimplantation of Subjects With Implantable Insulin Pump Therapy

This research is being done to find out whether subjects previously treated with the implantable insulin pump (IIP) therapy, and now taking insulin by injection, will benefit from re-implantation of IIP. The investigators will see if IIP causes more stable control of blood sugar, with fewer highs and lows. People with type 1 diabetes previously implanted with the MiniMed Implantable Pump (MIP) model 2000 at Johns Hopkins may join this study.

Read the detailed description

If the participant joins the study and chooses to have a new pump implanted, the study is expected to last 12-15 months for each participant, and each participant will continue to be followed, with 3-monthly refills and research visits for as long as the pump lasts, until the participant chooses to withdraw, until the FDA approves the pump for regular care, or until the company stops supporting the pump. During the first 12-15 months of the study, there will be an estimated 13 clinic visits and one hospital stay for 2-3 days. The data collection visits will take about 30 minutes, and a continuous glucose monitor will be started. The participants will have a brief visit 3-4 days later to drop off the monitor. After this phase of the research, the participants will still be cared for with the implanted pump, having visits for refills and tests every 3 months. This long-term follow up will last until the participants choose to withdraw, the pump malfunctions, the FDA approves the pump for regular care, or the company no longer supports the pump. If the participants are no longer taking part in the study, the investigators will have the pump removed from their body.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aventis U-400 Insulin in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Johns Hopkins University 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 12 Sep 2017. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Sep 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Glucose Control as Assessed by Mean Glucose Levels (time frame: End of study, approximately 5 years). 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 NCT00298740, which also lists 2 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 12 Sep 2017.
