Diabetes Therapy to Improve BMI and Lung Function in CF

To recruit 150 adult patients with cystic fibrosis related diabetes (CFRD) without fasting hyperglycemia for a multi-center, twelve month, placebo-controlled intervention trial testing the ability of insulin or repaglinide to improve body mass index (BMI) and stabilize pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis (CF).

Completed

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this research is to determine whether treatment with either insulin or an oral diabetes agent that increases endogenous insulin secretion will improve BMI and pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis patients who have diabetes without fasting hyperglycemia.
