Study Overview

Status

Status

Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

92

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

2 years to 6 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

To be eligible for the study, a child must meet the following criteria:

  1. Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes according to American Diabetes Association diagnostic criteria
  2. Time since diagnosis of at least six months
  3. Age between 2 and 6 years at enrollment
  4. Parental consent to participate in the study
  5. No severe medical conditions, which in the opinion of the investigators are likely to hinder participation in this clinical trial.
  6. If current use of CGM, A1c has to be above 7.5%; value obtained within 3 months of enrollment
  7. Own and use an iPhone, or be willing/able to carry a study-supplied wi-fi enabled iPod

To be eligible for the study, a parent must meet the following criteria:

  1. Parent or legal guardian of a child with type 1 diabetes meeting the "child" criteria outlined above
  2. Age of 18.0 years or older
  3. Parent comprehends written English
  4. Parent understands the study protocol and signs the informed consent document
  5. Parent has access to a personal computer to upload diabetes devices and send to research team

The presence of any of the following is an exclusion for the study:

  1. Child has a medical disorder that in the judgment of the investigator will interfere with completion of any aspect of the protocol (e.g., pregnancy, kidney disease, adrenal insufficiency, skin condition that may hinder sensor application).
  2. Child has a neurologic disorder that in the judgment of the investigator will affect completion of the protocol
  3. Current use of oral glucocorticoids or other medications, which in the judgment of the investigator would be a contraindication to participation in the study
  4. Child is unable to completely avoid acetaminophen for duration of study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time spent in blood glucose range
Time Frame: Change over 6 months
Increasingly it is recognized that the percent time spent in a target blood glucose range, which is set by the American Diabetes Association, is an important outcome. This measure will be used as a primary outcome and derived from objective data downloads.
Change over 6 months
Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory
Time Frame: Change over 6 months
This is a measure of health-related quality of life. It is used to understand the broader impact on quality of life which includes social, psychological, and health aspects of daily living.
Change over 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
A1c
