About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of the Safety, Feasibility, and Potential Efficacy of Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Pump Therapy in Diabetic Gastroparesis (GLUMIT-DG)

A pilot study to assess the safety, feasibility, and potential (uncontrolled) efficacy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGMS) in conjunction with an insulin pump to improve glycemic control for treatment of type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients with gastroparesis

Read the detailed description

This multicenter, uncontrolled, open label treatment study is to assess the safety of CGMS in guiding insulin pump therapy for 24 weeks by measuring mild, moderate, and severe hypoglycemic episodes in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes and gastroparesis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hypoglycemic Episodes

    The incidence rate (events / person-week) of mild/moderate (glucose level < 70 mg/dL) and severe (glucose < 50 mg/dL) hypoglycemic episodes during screening vs 24 week of follow-up visits while using a combination of continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) and insulin pump therapy.

    Measured: 4 weeks screening vs 24 weeks follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) Total and Mean Score and Patient Assessed Gastro-Intestinal Quality of Life (PAGI-QOL) Score

    To determine the efficacy of CGMS guided insulin pump therapy on symptoms of gastroparesis as assessed by GCSI total score and mean score and quality of life as assessed by PAGI-QOL score in diabetics with gastroparesis.

    The outcome is assessed using the self-reported total GCSI score, which is computed as the average of the 3 subscores on the GCSI survey: 3-item postprandial fullness/early satiety subscore, the nausea/vomiting subscore (average of 3-items: nausea, retching, vomiting), and bloating subscore (average of 2-items: bloating, stomach visibly larger). Each item is scored from 0 (no) to 5 (very severe) symptoms in the past 2-weeks; the total score ranges from 0 to 5.

    The self-reported PAGI-QOL total score which comprises 30 items scored from 0 (none of the time) to 5 (all of the time) the participant's QOL has been affected in the last 2 weeks.The total score is the mean of the 5 subscale scores and ranges from 0 (lowest QOL) to 5 (highest QOL) in past 2-weeks.

    Measured: Change from baseline (screening) vs 24 weeks of follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CGMS and insulin pump in people with Diabetic Gastroparesis, run by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health at 7 sites 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 6 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 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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 4 Sep 2018). 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?

Hypoglycemic Episodes (time frame: 4 weeks screening vs 24 weeks follow-up). 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 Feb 2022.
