Examining the Effects of Neuromodulation on Glucose Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetes
September 23, 2015 updated by: Scion NeuroStim
Device: Investigational Study to Examine the Effects of Neuromodulation on Glucose Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetes
This is a pilot study with a single active treatment arm.
The study is designed to assess the efficacy of a portable, non-invasive neuromodulation system for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes.
In particular, the primary outcome measure is a reduction in A1c.

Description
Inclusion Criteria
A subject is eligible for the study if all of the following criteria are met:
- Provide written informed consent prior to enrollment.
- Is male or female between 18-70 years old.
- Has been diagnosed with type II diabetes for greater than 12 months.
Is currently either using lifestyle modification or taking one or two of the following oral antihyperglycemic agents and has been on stable doses for 90 days prior to screening:
- metformin
- DPP-4 inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, alogliptin, linaglyptin)
- Pioglitazone
- GLP-1 agonist (exenatide, liraglutide, exenatide LAR)
- SGLT-2 Inhibitors (dapaglifozin, canagliflozin)
- Has an A l c between 7.5 - 9.0% based upon point of care testing performed at visit 1.
- Currently performs self-monitoring blood glucose checks at least 3 times per week.
- Able to adhere to protocol requirements.
Exclusion Criteria
A subject will be excluded if any of the following criteria are met:
- Has Type 1 Diabetes or Gestational Diabetes.
- Is pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the course of the study.
- Current use OR use in the past 6 months of sulfonylureas.
- Current use OR use in the past 6 months of insulin
- History of cardiovascular disease or cerebrovascular disease.
- Any planned surgery during the course of the study.
- Current continuous renal replacement therapy.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: TNM (thermoneuromodulation device)
A standardized active thermal neuromodulation waveform will be used for all patients.
The device is non-invasive and does not use electrical stimulation.
|
The device is worn like a music headset and the patient lies on a wedge pillow while the device is active.
Each session lasts under 20 minutes.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (A1c)
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's A1c value will be compared with the baseline value to assess any reduction.
|
after 84 days of device use

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Measurement of lipid panel
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's fasting lipid panel will be taken and compared with the baseline panel to assess any difference in lipid metabolism.
|
after 84 days of device use
|
Assessment of quality of life
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on quality of life measures will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.
|
after 84 days of device use
|
Assessment of mood
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on mood measures will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.
|
after 84 days of device use
|
Assessment of diabetes related self care
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on diabetes related self care will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.
|
after 84 days of device use
|
Feasibility and acceptability of the device as an intervention for the diabetes population
Time Frame: after 84 days of device use
|
At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient will be asked to assess the device use experience and note any shortcomings, challenges or difficulties.
