About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Chlorthalidone to Reduce Urinary Calcium Excretion in Adolescents/Yount Adult With Type 1 Diabetes

This open-label study will determine if chlorthalidone is safe and effective for the use of reducing urinary calcium excretion over 4 weeks in subjects with type 1 diabetes

Read the detailed description

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with increased urinary calcium loss, which may contribute to the low bone mineral density and increased fracture risk observed in patients with this condition. Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic that is commonly used to reduce urinary calcium excretion in other conditions such as idiopathic hypercalciuria. Its safety and efficacy has not been specifically tested in an adolescent type 1 diabetes population.

T1D subjects with hypercalciuria and who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be given chlorthalidone daily. Blood and urine tests, blood pressure, and glycemic control will be assessed at weekly study visits for 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urinary Calcium Excretion

    Change in 24 hour urine calcium excretion

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and at 4 weeks

  2. Hypokalemia

    Serum potassium decreased to <3.5 milliequivalent/L

    Measured: Assessed weekly for up to 4 weeks or until hypokalemia develops

  3. Hypercalcemia

    Serum calcium increased to >10.5 mg/dL

    Measured: Assessed weekly for up to 4 weeks or until hypercalcemia develops

  4. Hyperglycemia

    Change in serum fructosamine

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and at 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Chlorthalidone in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Hypercalciuria, run by University of Rochester 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 5 inclusion and 18 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2021. 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?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 5 Jan 2021). 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?

Urinary Calcium Excretion (time frame: Assessed at baseline and at 4 weeks). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Jan 2021.
