About this study

Official title: Subcutaneous Versus Intravenous Basal Insulin in Non-critical Hospitalized Diabetic Patients That Receive Total Parenteral Nutrition

Analyze the level of metabolic control achieved with a routine of regular insulin in the parenteral nutrition (PN) reservoir in addition to subcutaneous glargine insulin, versus only regular insulin in the PN reservoir.

Read the detailed description

A pattern of basal insulin (using subcutaneous insulin glargine and regulating the stock as prandial), plus regular subcutaneous insulin as rescue, applied to total parenteral nutrition (TPN) should be as effective (glycemic control, variability) and safe (hypoglycemia) as the usual (regular insulin inside the TPN reservoir and subcutaneous insulin as rescue) in patients with type 2 diabetes critics.

Being tested
Subcutaneous glargine insulin, Regular insulin added to TPN bag
Keywords
total parenteral nutrition, glargine insulin, insulin
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Hyperphagia, Insulin Resistance

What participants receive

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

  • Subcutaneous glargine insulinDrug

    Also called ATC code A10AE0, Lantus®, Abasaglar®

    Glargine insuline is an insulin analogue which has a prolonged duration of action. Insulin glargine is obtained by recombinant DNA technology in Escherichia coli.

  • Regular insulin added to TPN bagDrug

    Also called ATC code A10AB01, Actrapid®

    Regular insulin is human insulin produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by recombinant DNA technology.

Study groups in NCT02706119
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Glargine insulinExperimentalSingle dose glargine insulin (basal component) + regular insulin within total parenteral nutrition (TPN) reservoir (prandial component). 50% of the total calculated dose of insulin is administered subcutaneously as single dose subcutaneous glargine insulin; remaining 50% of the total calculated dose of insulin is administered as regular insulin in the TPN reservoir. Interventions used: Intravenous glargine insulin, and regular insulin added to TPN bag
Receives: Drug: Subcutaneous glargine insulin; Drug: Regular insulin added to TPN bag
Regular insulinActive comparatorRegular insulin added to TPN bag (basal + prandial component). The calculated total dose of insulin is administered as regular insulin in the TPN reservoir. Interventions used: Regular insulin added to TPN bag
Receives: Drug: Regular insulin added to TPN bag

What is being measured

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

  1. Basal blood glucose value before starting TPN

    Basal glucose value before starting TPN (in mg/dL).

    Measured: Before starting total parenteral nutrition

  2. Periodical blood glucose

    All blood glucose values (in mg/dL) every 6 hours during 15 days of TPN infusion.

    Measured: Every 6h during 15 days of treatment

  3. Variation of average blood glucose compared with total dose of insulin

    Variation of average glucose (in mg/dL) compared with total dose of insulin (in mL), in days 1, 5 and 15 of treatment.

    Measured: In days 1, 5 and 15 of treatment

  4. Number of hypoglycaemia

    Number of symptomatic and asymptomatic hypoglycaemia with blood glucose below 70 mg/dL during TPN treatment up to 15 days.

    Measured: During TPN treatment up to 15 days

  5. Number of severe hypoglycaemia

    Number of symptomatic and asymptomatic hypoglycaemia with blood glucose below 40 mg/dL during TPN treatment up to 15 days.

    Measured: During TPN treatment up to 15 days

  6. Hypoglycemia blood glucose values

    If the patient refers typical symptoms of hypoglycemia, a measure of blood glucose (in mg/mL) is immediately taken to check the level

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 15 days.

  7. Hypoglycemia symptoms

    If blood glucose <70 mg / dL, it is recorded whether or not the patient has symptoms consistent with hypoglycemia and how the episode terminates

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 15 days.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Standard deviation of blood glucose

    Standard deviation of blood glucose (SD): Expressed in milligrams per deciliter (in mg/dL).

    Measured: At day 15 of treatment

  2. Blood glucose coefficient of variation (CV)

    Coefficient of variation (CV): Expressed as a percentage (%). The ratio of the standard deviation of the blood glucoses values (in mg/dL) and the average blood glucose (in mg/dL), multiplied by 100.

    Measured: At day 15 of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Subcutaneous glargine insulin and Regular insulin added to TPN bag in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by Fundación Pública Andaluza Progreso y Salud at 32 sites in Spain.

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 5 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 24 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 32 sites in Spain. 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?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Basal blood glucose value before starting TPN (time frame: Before starting total parenteral nutrition). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02706119, 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 24 May 2018.
