Optimal Insulin Correction Factor in Post- High Intensity Exercise Hyperglycemia in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes (FIT)
Optimal Insulin Correction Factor in Post- High Intensity Exercise Hyperglycemia in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes (FIT)

NCT03057470

UnknownPhase 4

Sponsor: LMC Diabetes & Endocrinology Ltd.

Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Interventions: 50% bolus insulin correction, 100% bolus insulin correction, 150% bolus insulin correction, 0% bolus insulin correction

Countries: Canada

The overall objective of this study is to investigate the glycemic response of a 0%, 50%, 100% and 150% bolus insulin correction (based on personal insulin correction factor) of post-exercise hyperglycemia in physically active adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using multiple daily injections (MDI) in a controlled, but clinically representative, experimental setting.

Eligibility overview

Sex: ALL

Age: 18 Years to 55 Years

Healthy volunteers: No

Study type: INTERVENTIONAL

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria

* Male or female
* Clinical diagnosis of presumed autoimmune T1D
* Age 18-55 years, inclusive
* Duration of T1D ≥ 6 months
* Using MDI therapy for at least 6 months
* Fasting C-peptide value of \< 0.7 ng/mL (0.23 nmol/L) at screening visit
* Patient must be willing to undergo an 8-week run-in phase prior to the study period where they will be required to use MDI therapy at least 4 times per day, and switch from their usual basal insulin to insulin glargine U300
* Exercise regularly: i.e. ≥ 30 minutes of moderate or vigorous aerobic activity ≥ 3 times/week for a minimum of 90 minutes weekly
* VO2peak ≥32 ml/kg/min for females and ≥ 35 ml/kg/min for males
* HbA1c between 6.0-9.0% inclusive at screening visit.
* Insulin total daily dose (TDD) ≥ 30 U/day
* In good general health with no known conditions that could influence the outcome of the trial, and in the judgement of the Investigator is a good candidate for the study based on review of available medical history, physical examination and clinical laboratory evaluations
* Willing to adhere to the protocol requirements for the duration of the study

Exclusion Criteria

* Pregnant or lactating
* Active diabetic retinopathy (proliferative diabetic retinopathy, or vitreous haemorrhage in past 6 months) that could potentially be worsened by the exercise protocol
* Any evidence of unstable cardiovascular disease, disorders or abnormalities as per physician's discretion. .
* Currently following a very low calorie or other weight-loss diet which may impact glucose control and mask the primary and secondary outcome measures
* More than one episode of severe hypoglycemia with seizure, coma or requiring assistance of another person during the past 6 months
* Known hypoglycemia unawareness
* Use of acetaminophen (Tylenol) during the run-in phase or study period
* Medications other than insulin that might impact outcome measures:
* Beta blockers
* Agents that affect hepatic glucose production such as beta adrenergic agonists and antagonists, xanthine derivatives
* Pramlintide
* Any non-insulin diabetes therapy
