Quality Initiative to Improve Glucose Control in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

February 3, 2021 updated by: Caroline Richardson, University of Michigan

Achieving Improved Control of Blood Glucose Among Type 2 Diabetes Patients Through Continuous Glucose Monitoring & Care Coordinator Mediated Gains in Patient Self-Management Sophistication

The goal of the Twine / University of Michigan Diabetes Quality Improvement Initiative is to improve diabetes care quality using real time feedback with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and dietary coaching for lower carbohydrate consumption in a high-risk sub-cohort of outpatients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access 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

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
64

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

21 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Michigan Medicine patient treated by a physician in the Family Medicine Department at the Chelsea Health Center
  • Diagnosis of T2D as recorded in the patient's problem list or as documented by medication list and lab results
  • HbA1C >8 for the high-risk sub-cohort

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Individuals for whom tight control (ie A1C < 8) is not safe or recommended, including but not limited to older frail individuals at high-risk of hypoglycemia and falls or those with a life expectancy of less than 6 months due to a comorbid condition
  • Individuals with cognitive or psychological diagnoses that might make CGM or low carbohydrate dieting risky, such as patients with eating disorders, uncontrolled psychotic - mental illness or those patients with dementia
  • Women who are pregnant or breast feeding
  • Individuals who had previous bariatric surgery

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Active Comparator: Comparator- High Risk
A high risk sub group of those assigned to the comparator arm will be identified by their most recent A1C > 8. Patients in this group will receive usual care from their Primary Care Physician and dietitian.
Other: Usual Care
Usual care from Primary Care Physician and dietitian.
Active Comparator: Comparator- Well Controlled
The low risk sub group from the comparator arm (A1C < 8) and those who are unlikely to benefit from an intensive behavioral intervention will get usual care by their Primary Care Physician and their dietitian.
Other: Usual Care
Usual care from Primary Care Physician and dietitian.
Experimental: Enhanced Care- High Risk
A high risk sub group of those assigned to the enhanced care arm will be identified by their most recent A1C > 8. Patients in this group will receive the intensive behavioral intervention which will incorporate lower carbohydrate diet, diet coaching, and more intensive glucose monitoring.
Behavioral: Intensive Behavioral Intervention
The intensive behavioral intervention which will incorporate lower carbohydrate diet, diet coaching, and more intensive glucose monitoring.
Experimental: Enhanced Care- Well Controlled.
The low risk sub group from the enhanced care arm (A1C < 8) and those who are unlikely to benefit from an intensive behavioral intervention will get usual care by their PCP and their dietitian. If they are found to be poorly controlled through monthly screening for risk, they may have the opportunity to move into the Enhanced Care High Risk group.
Other: Usual Care
Usual care from Primary Care Physician and dietitian.
Other: Monthly Screening for Risk
Monthly screening of HbA1C to identify patents who have become poorly controlled in the interval.

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.

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.
