Information provided by: Diabetes Care Center
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00874809
  Purpose

The main purpose of this study is to determine the number of daily basal insulin rate changes that are needed to achieve short-term near normal glucose control in insulin pump patients with type 2 diabetes


Condition Intervention
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Device: CGMS with an insulin pump using rapid acting insulin

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Single Group Assignment, Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Pilot Study to Explore Basal Insulin Dosing Requirements in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Insulin Pump Therapy

Further study details as provided by Diabetes Care Center:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • What are the mean number of changes in the basal infusion rate(change is defined as any alternation in the basal rate >0.1 U/hr) and what are the mean differences and mean duration (hrs) of these changes. [ Time Frame: week six of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • What mathematical formulas describe the relationship between the dosing factors and do they significantly differ from those previously established by King and Armstrong [ Time Frame: week 6 of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 10
Study Start Date: March 2009
Estimated Study Completion Date: June 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: June 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Device: CGMS with an insulin pump using rapid acting insulin
    To determine basal changes subject will wear a CGMS with an insulin pump infusing rapid acting insulin
Detailed Description:

Subjects will be taught CHO counting after which they will be introduced to an insulin pump. They will wear the insulin pump for three weeks to adjust to the pump and its functions. Then the subject will wear a Continuous Glucose Monitoring System to determine rate changes needed to achieve short-term near normal glucose control.

The primary endpoint is what are the mean number of changes in the basal infusion rate and what are the mean differences and mean duration of these changes. The secondary endpoint is what mathematical formulas describe the relationship between the dosing factors and do they significantly differ from those previously established by King and Armstrong.
