Super-Bolus: Effects on Postprandial Glycemia After High Glycemic Index Meal

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04019821
Lead Sponsor
Medical University of Warsaw
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine whether Super-Bolus is more effective in postprandial glycemic control than Normal-Bolus after the high glycemic index (H-GI) meal in children with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) treated with insulin pump (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, CSII).

Normal BolusInsulin GlulisinePre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Normal Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Normal Bolus will be calculated based on individual insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio (ICR).
Normal BolusInsulin AspartPre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Normal Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Normal Bolus will be calculated based on individual insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio (ICR).
Normal BolusInsulin LisproPre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Normal Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Normal Bolus will be calculated based on individual insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio (ICR).
Super BolusInsulin GlulisinePre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Super Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Super Bolus will be calculated based on individual ICR increased to 150% and basal insulin will be suspended for 2 hours at the same time.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postprandial Glycemia90 minutes after the prandial bolus

Postprandial blood glucose excursion measured by self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hypoglycemia Episodes3-hours after the prandial bolus

Hypoglycemia defined as a plasma glucose concentration below or equal 70mg/dl with or without symptoms

Glucose Area Under the Curve (AUC)3-hours after the prandial bolus

Measurements based on Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)

Mean amplitude of glycaemic excursion (MAGE)3-hours after the prandial bolus

MAGE will be defined as a standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG) obtained from all blood glucose concentrations

Capillary blood glucose level 30,60,120,150,180 min after administration of the prandial bolus3-hours after the prandial bolus

measured by SMBG

Glycemic rise (GR)3-hours after the prandial bolus

a difference between baseline and the maximum glucose value based on CGMS

Peak glucose level (PG)3-hours after the prandial bolus

the maximum value of glycemia during 3 hours of postmeal time based on CGMS

Time to glucose peak3-hours after the prandial bolus

based on CGMS

Time in postprandial glucose range between 70 to 180 mg/dl (4.0-10.0 mmol/L)3-hours after the prandial bolus

based on CGMS
