About this study

Official title: The Effect of Insulin Bolus Speed of Rapid-Acting Insulin Analog Absorption and Action in Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes

Rapid Action Insulin (RAI) absorption and action measured by time to reach maximum insulin concentration and glucose infusion rate.

Read the detailed description

The investigators hypothesize that RAI absorption and action measured by time to reach maximum insulin concentration and glucose infusion rate during the clamp study will be significantly faster when insulin bolus is delivered using the "Quick Bolus" feature as compared to the "Standard Bolus".

Outcomes were updated at time of results entry.

Conditions
Type1diabetes
Being tested
Quick Bolus, Standard Bolus

What participants receive

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

  • Quick BolusDevice

    Individuals with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) given 0.2 units/kg of rapid acting insulin (RAI) via "quick bolus" of 15 units per minute during a euglycemic clamp.

  • Standard BolusDevice

    Individuals with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) given 0.2 units/kg of rapid acting insulin (RAI) via "standard bolus" of 1.5 units per minute during a euglycemic clamp.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Maximum Glucose Infusion Rate

    time to maximum glucose infusion rate (GIR) in minutes

    Measured: 300 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Earlier Clearance of Exogenous Insulin.

    Time to reach baseline insulin concentrations is used to determine the completion of insulin as part bolus of bioavailability.

    Measured: up to 5 hours

  2. Maximum Glucose Infusion Rate

    maximum glucose infusion rate (GIRmax)

    Measured: 300 minutes

  3. Area Under the Curve for the Glucose Infusion Rate

    area under the curve for the glucose infusion rate

    Measured: 300 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Quick Bolus and Standard Bolus in people with Type1diabetes, run by Yale 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 8 inclusion and 5 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 13 Feb 2024. 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 13 Feb 2024). 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?

Time to Maximum Glucose Infusion Rate (time frame: 300 minutes). 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 13 Feb 2024.
