Management of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes is essentially insulin therapy using insulin pump, allowing the improvement of the glycemic balance. However, the risk of hypoglycaemia inherent to the treatment persists. Hypoglycemia is an acute complication in the management of diabetes. It can be manifested by warning signs (tremors, sweats, feelings of hunger ...) but also occur during sleep and be ignored. It can be responsible for asthenia, difficulty concentrating and attention and memory problems. In order to decrease time spent in hypoglycemia, insulin pump therapy can be coupled with a continuous glucose measurement system with a stop insulin pump function in case of hypoglycemia. The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy of the predictive system for stopping before hypoglycaemia "medtronic Minimed with SmartGuard technology" in type 1 diabetic children, especially on the time spent in hypoglycemia .
Pilot of a novel video-based telemedicine intervention to reduce fear of hypoglycemia in parents of young children with type 1 diabetes.
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene HERG (encoding Kv11.1 potassium channels) is expressed in different parts of the body including the heart, pancreas and intestines. In the heart, Kv11.1 channels play a role in ending depolarization by causing repolarization. Loss-of-function mutations of HERG cause long QT syndrome, a condition of elongated QT interval that can lead to ventricular tachycardia, syncope and sudden death. Kv11.1 channels are also found in pancreatic α- and β-cells and intestinal L-cells, where they seem to play a role in the secretion of insulin, glucagon and Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1). Carriers of loss-of-function mutations in the HERG gene have showed increased insulin and incretin responses after glucose ingestion and decreased fasting levels of glucagon compared to matched control persons. Blockade of Kv11.1 has shown to augment glucose dependent insulin secretion and decrease low-glucose stimulated glucagon secretion in isolated α- and β- cells. The investigators of this study hypothesize that a blockade of Kv11.1 channels will increase incretin and β cell function and decrease α cell function and thus lead to lower glucose levels in humans after glucose intake. To investigate this, The investigators of this study will perform a randomized, cross sectional study of up to 40 healthy study participants who will serve as their own controls. The study participants will undergo two 6-hours oral glucose tolerance tests, one after intake of a known Kv11.1 blocker (moxifloxacin) and one control oral glucose tolerance test after intake of placebo. Prior to both tests the study participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor and on the day of the tests they will fill out a glucose questionnaire. Investigation of the physiological role of HERG in metabolism may provide a better insight on metabolic regulation.
This is a randomized crossover trial with 1:1 randomization to the admission sequence of using the Control AP system (rMPC - Naïve Model Predictive Control) vs. Experimental AP system (EnMPC - Ensemble Model Predictive Control) over approximately 4 months. Eligible participants will proceed to the Data Collection Phase for approximately 28 days, during which they will participate in regimented exercise activities. If the participant collected adequate data during the Data Collection Phase, they will be randomized and undergo the study admissions in the assigned sequence. Each admission is approximately 36 hours in length and will consist of one afternoon of exercise and one without.
This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 2-treatment, 2-period, crossover comparison in a clinical research center (CRC) setting, followed by a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, 2-arm parallel comparison with a third open-label arm in an outpatient setting. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of Glucagon Ready-to-Use [RTU] to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia (EIH) in adults with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), who perform regular, moderate-to-high intensity aerobic exercise.
A hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp is an experimental procedure, which allows for hypoglycemia to be studied in a safe and controlled manner. The goal of this study is to establish the hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp procedure at Pennington Biomedical Research Center in order to apply the knowledge gained to future studies which will determine the efficacy of our biomarker for predicting susceptibility to hypoglycemia. Additionally, our use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) during the clamp procedure will provide novel data regarding the accuracy of CGM during hypoglycemic conditions in a controlled research setting.
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Glucagon RTU when administered to subjects with a history of bariatric surgery during episodes of post-postprandial hypoglycemia. Twelve eligible subjects will be randomly assigned to receive Glucagon RTU or placebo at the first of two clinical research center (CRC) visits, followed by the other treatment at the second CRC visit. Subjects will be randomly assigned to either Glucagon RTU or Placebo for the duration of a 12-week Outpatient Stage. A follow-up safety assessment visit will occur 14 to 28 days after a subject's last dose of study drug.
This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, single-blind, two-way crossover efficacy and safety study in subjects with Type 1 diabetes mellitus. The study involves two daytime clinical research center (CRC) visits with random assignment to receive G-Pen glucagon 1 mg during one period and Novo Glucagon 1 mg during the other. Each daytime visit is preceded by an overnight stay in the CRC. In the morning of the inpatient study visit, the subject is brought into a state of severe hypoglycemia through IV administration of regular insulin diluted in normal saline. After a hypoglycemic state with plasma glucose < 54 mg/dL (3 mmol/L) is verified, the subject is administered a dose of G-Pen or Novo Glucagon via subcutaneous injection. Plasma glucose levels are monitored for up to 180 minutes post-dosing, with a value of >70.0 mg/dL (3.89 mmol/L) or an increase of > 20 mg/dL (>1.11 mmol/L) within 30 minutes of glucagon administration indicating a positive response. After 3 hours, the subject is given a meal and discharged when medically stable. After a wash-out period of 7 to 28 days, subjects return to the CRC, and the procedures are repeated with each subject crossed over to the other treatment. A follow-up visit as a safety check is conducted 2-7 days following administration of the final dose of study drug.
To assess if using the hypoglycemic clamp and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning in hypoglycemia unaware and aware T1DM patients and healthy controls have showed distinct differences in patterns of brain responses. In particular, T1DM patients who are aware of hypoglycemia (T1DM-Aware) have greater activity in sensory integration brain regions (e.g. parietal lobe and caudate nucleus) in response to hypoglycemia, whereas hypoglycemia unaware T1DM patients (T1DM-Unaware) show no detectable changes in brain reward regions during hypoglycemia.
