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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The aim of this study was to monitor the tissue hydraulic resistance at the subcutaneous tissue sites of infusion of an insulin and insulin-free solution in patients with type 1 diabetes and to determine the frequency distributions of the tissue hydraulic resistance at these infusion sites over a time period of 7 days.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Subjects were individually instructed on the use of the insulin pump employed in the study. Subjects were given written instructions for handling low and high glucose concentrations. Subjects were provided with a 24-hour telephone helpline. Subjects were asked to perform at least seven blood glucose measurements per day and to immediately contact the study team when correction boluses failed to decrease their glucose levels.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Patients were recruited from the diabetes out-patient clinics of the Medical University of Graz. Recruitment period lasted from January 2016 to April 2016

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    35 subjects were screened. They were of both sexes, in the age group of 18–65 years and diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. They had to have HbA1C values of <10%, and had to be treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin Infusion (insulin pump therapy). Five subjects were excluded due to screening failures.

    Insulin Infusion Sites
    Arm description
    Subjects wore two identical insulin pumps over a period of 7 days. One pump was used for continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy and the other for the infusion of an insulin-free solution. At both infusion sites, the tissue flow resistance (TFR) was assessed shortly after establishing the infusion sites (Day 0) and on each of the 7 subsequent days (Days 1-7).

    Dosage and administration details
    One insulin pump provided insulin aspart to the patient's body at basal and bolus rates. Basal insulin was continuously delivered throughout the day to mimic the background insulin production of the pancreas. Bolus insulin was delivered on demand to match the amount of carbohydrates ingested or to correct high blood glucose. The size of the basal and bolus insulin delivered was dependent on the patient's insulin sensitivity, the current blood glucose value, and total grams of carbohydrates that the patient ingested. The average daily total dose of insulin aspart administered in the study subjects was 45 insulin units.
