Trial summary

Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level) occurs frequently in intensively treated patients with diabetes. Although hypoglycemia was thought to occur almost exclusively in T1DM, with the advent of improved metabolic control in T2DM, the incidence of hypoglycemia is rising in these patients.

About this study

Official title: SCCOR in Hemostatic and Thrombotic Diseases Project 5 - Metabolic Causes of Thrombosis in Type 2 Diabetes

Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level) occurs frequently in intensively treated patients with diabetes. Although hypoglycemia was thought to occur almost exclusively in T1DM, with the advent of improved metabolic control in T2DM, the incidence of hypoglycemia is rising in these patients. Therefore in this application, we will test the novel hypothesis that prior hypoglycemia will result in (cardiovascular complications) during subsequent hypoglycemia.

Read the detailed description

This study will test the hypothesis that 1) hypoglycemia causes a prothrombotic state and defective endothelial function and 2) episodes of repeated hypoglycemia will result in greater impairments of endothelial function and an increased prothrombotic tendency. Preliminary data in healthy men demonstrates that hypoglycemia can dramatically increase PAI-1 levels and the PAI-1 to tPA ratio, thereby creating a prothrombotic state. Whether this also occurs in type 2 DM patients is unknown. Furthermore, the effects of hypoglycemia on endothelial function in T2DM are also unknown.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Changes in Endothelial Function as Measured by Flow Mediated Dilation by 2D Doppler Ultrasound on Day 2

    A measure of the baseline arterial dilation on day 2 is compared to the post intervention measure of dilation of the brachial artery on Day 2.

    Measured: baseline on day 2 and ~6 hours later at end of glucose clamp period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemic Clamp in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore 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 9 inclusion and 16 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 2019. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Sep 2014). 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?

Percent Changes in Endothelial Function as Measured by Flow Mediated Dilation by 2D Doppler Ultrasound on Day 2 (time frame: baseline on day 2 and ~6 hours later at end of glucose clamp period). 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 NCT00574340, 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 2019.
