简要总结
This is a pilot study to examine and compare the efficacy of supervised injections of long acting insulins degludec and glargine to protect youth with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D) from development of ketones.
详细描述
This study will compare the proportion of days with fasting β-hydroxybutyrate levels ≥0.6 mmol/L at the start of the school week following weekend/holiday breaks in subjects who have been randomized to receive daily injections of I-deg or I-glar. Hypothesis: β-hydroxybutyrate levels will be lower in the morning of the first day of the school week in subjects receiving I-deg than in subjects receiving I-glar, since the long half-life of I-deg will compensate for missed insulin doses over the weekend/holidays. To remove variability due to potential non-compliance during the school week, this study will utilize our routine clinical practice of supervised insulin administration and monitoring of blood glucose and ketones during the school day.

研究组 & 干预措施
subjects receiving insulin degludec
Youth aged 8-18 years with T1D whose diabetes is poorly-controlled (A1c ≥8.5%) will receive insulin degludec injections.
干预措施: Insulin Degludec (Drug)
Subjects receiving insulin glargine
Youth aged 8-18 years with T1D whose diabetes is poorly-controlled (A1c ≥8.5%) will receive insulin glargine injections.
干预措施: Insulin Glargine (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Lower beta hydroxybutyrate levels
时间窗: 4 months
Will test the the hypothesis that β-hydroxybutyrate levels will be lower in the morning (≥0.6 mmol/L) of the first day of the school week in subjects receiving I-deg, since the long half-life of I-deg will compensate for missed insulin doses over the weekend/holidays.
次要结局
- Control of HbA1c levels(4 months)
- Measure of beta hydroxybutyrate levels between the 2 groups.(4 months)
