About this study

Official title: The Effect of Frequent Continuous Glucose Monitoring Use on Glucose Variability in Preschoolers With Type 1 Diabetes - The VibRate Study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether continuous glucose monitoring will improve glucose variability as measured by the coefficient of variation of glucose levels in very young children with T1D. The study adopts an open-label, multi-centre, multinational, prospective registry-based population cohort design contrasting CGM use to SMBG alone in young children with type 1 diabetes over 12 months.

The primary endpoint is the difference between treatment modalities (CGM vs SMBG alone) in glycaemic variability, measured as the coefficient of variation of glucose levels, during the 12 months observational period. Other Key edpoints include time in range 70-180 mg/dl, time below range 70 mg/dl and time above range 180 mg/dl.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 1 Diabetes and Continuous Glucose Monitoring, run by University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Medicine at 1 site in Slovenia.

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 4 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 10 May 2023. 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 Slovenia. 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?

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?

Coefficient of variation (time frame: 1 year). 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 10 May 2023.
