Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43850   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    This study aims to assess the effects of early insulin therapy in previously non-diabetic de novo kidney transplant patients in reducing the incidence of new onset diabetes in particular and abnormal glucose metabolism in general during subsequent follow-up.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Personal information will be stored in a secure environment, and it will be transferred to the data coordinating center (DCC) using appropriate protections such as password protection and encryption. The study data will be maintained in a secure computer system with standard password protection accessible only to the investigators and dedicated study coordinator. The password will be updated on a quarterly basis. The leftover biological samples will be stored for future researches. Similarly, there is also a remote possibility of inappropriate sample handling. Precaution will be taken to prevent such improper handling: the research freezers are institutionally owned and securely locked with limited access to investigators and study coordinator, all samples are code identified and the link between code and patient’s identification will be maintained but stored separately in secured systems.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    All patients with end stage renal disease who have no history of diabetes and will undergo kidney transplantation from either a deceased or living donor at the participating transplant centers will be potential study participants.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Prior to transplantation, participants will be randomized into one of two study arms, A (intervention arm) and B (standard of care arm). A blocked randomization ratio of 1:1 will be performed at each transplant center. The only criteria for stratification will the number of previous transplant: first transplant versus repeat transplant.

    Dosage and administration details
    During the initial 4 weeks of capillary glucose monitoring, if patients have pre-dinner glucose levels of 140 mg/dl or greater, they will be started on insulin therapy with intermediate acting NPH insulin (human insulin isophane, Humulin N, Eli Lilly) in the morning before breakfast. The initial doses of NPH insulin are as following: 10 units before breakfast for pre-dinner capillary glucose levels between 140 and 179 mg/dl, 12 units between 180 and 239 mg/dl, and 14 units for 240 mg/dl and higher (Appendices, table 1). Once started on insulin therapy, 4 times daily capillary glucose monitoring will be continued. During therapy, the pre-dinner capillary glucose target is 110 mg/dl.

    Control
    Arm description
    Patients will be managed according to the current transplant centers practice with no routine glycemia monitoring other than once daily fasting glucose level in the morning as part of a basic metabolic panel to follow renal function improvement following the surgery. Patients whose glucose values are above 200 mg/dl will be monitored subsequently and, if confirmed, covered by short-acting insulin according to a sliding scale during their in-hospital stay. If a permanent antidiabetic medication is necessary, sulfonylureas will be the treatment of choice whenever possible.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    06 Nov 2012
    1. Role of the Sponsor: The Medical University of Vienna (MUV) is the sponsor of the multicentric ITP-NODAT Study in Europe. The reference to the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Disease (NIDDK) was therefore omitted in the present version of the protocol. 2. Immunosuppression: Due to the transplant centers‘clinical practice in Europe, tacrolimus-based immunosuppression in Vienna, Graz, Berlin (both centres, namely Charité Campus Mitte and Charité Campus Virchow) as well as Barcelona will occur with once-daily tacrolimus (Advagraf by Astellas). 3. Data Recording and Data Administration: We will use paper-based Case Report Forms. Data entry into RedCap (as provided by the University of Michigan [U of M]) is optional (depending on the contracts agreed upon between U of M and MUV). 4. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): Hopistalizations are the rule and not the exception after kidney transplantation. Because this study is not evaluating the role of transplantation as a risik factor (but instead is evaluationg a postoperative insulin intervention regimen), only those hospitalizations due to hypoglycemia (as well as hypoglycemias with blood glucose ≤40 mg/dL shall be judged as SAEs, in analogy to the NICE-SUGAR study (N Engl J Med. 2009 Mar 26;360(13):1283-97). 5. Monitoring: The Monitor for the ITP-NODAT study in European centers outside the MUV will be Carlos Rodriguez-Torres, DMD, MBA.
    12 Feb 2013
    1. Immunsuppression: Es wurde das Cortison-Schema der Transplantationszentren in Europa an die derzeit in den meisten europäischen Zentren gängige Praxis angepasst (verringert). 2. Datenaufzeichnung und Datenverwaltung: Das Case Report Form wurde an das von der University of Michigan zur Verfügung gestellte RedCap angepasst. 3. Patienteninformation/Schwangerschaftstests: Nach Rücksprache und Einholung der Autorisierung durch Dr. Strasser (AGES) werden monatliche Schwangerschaftstests nur während der Dauer der Verabreichung der Studienmedilkation (Insulin) durchgeführt. 4. Monitoring: Der Monitor für die ITP-NODAT Studie -auch an der Medizinischen Universität Wien- ist Carlos Rodriguez-Torres, DMD, MBA. 5. Kontrolltermine in den Monaten 16 und 20. Diese Kontrolltermine werden nach Rücksprache mit den Investigatoren der University of Michigan weggelassen. 6. Die im Antragsformular fehlerhaft angekreuzte Indikationsstellung der Studienmedikation (Punkt 2.1.2) wurde korrigiert.
