Meal-time Administration of Exenatide for Glycaemic Control in Type 1 Diabetic Cases (MAG1C)

July 9, 2019 updated by: Filip Krag Knop

Meal-time Administration of Exenatide for Glycaemic Control in Type 1 Diabetic Cases: A Randomised, Placebo-controlled Trial

Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) depend on insulin therapy as substitution for the lack of endocrine insulin production due to an autoimmune destruction of beta-cells in the pancreatic inslets. Insulin therapy is based on long lasting basal insulin for controlling fasting plasma glucose, and short lasting mealtime insulin for the postprandial plasma glucose. The long term efficacy of this treatment is measured in glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of <7.0% as the treatment goal.

Intensive insulin therapy is associated with side effects such as hypoglycaemia, weight gain, and unwanted exaggerated excursions in PPG. This may ultimately affect treatment compliance.

The abovementioned problems associated with insulin treatment in T1D can also be seen in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, in T2D the combination of insulin with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) has proven effective in reducing the weight gain and insulin dose in insulin-treated patients with T2D without exacerbating the risk of hypoglycaemia.

Exenatid is a short lasting GLP-1RA approved for treatment in T2D, and the investigators intend to evaluate it in a randomized, controlled trial as add-on therapy to standard insulin therapy for patients with T1D.

The investigators hypothesise that the add-on of exenatide to insulin therapy in patients with T1D will reduce insulin requirements, glycaemic excursions and body weight and improve glycaemic control without increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

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. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
