Active clinical trials for "Hypoglycemia"

The study will be conducted in two phases; an in-patient meal study phase (Phase I) and an outpatient home study (Phase II). The two phase study design is chosen to enhance safety by testing the Afrezza Closed-Loop (CL) system in controlled in-clinic setting under study staff supervision before it could be investigated at the outpatient home setting. Phase II will not begin without the establishment of safety in Phase I.

This is an investigator-initiated, proof-of-concept, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-centre phase II study aiming to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of self-administered subcutaneous 120 µg dasiglucagon with an investigational trial device (i.e. a multi-dose reusable pen) for the treatment of postprandial hypoglycaemia after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. The study is divided into an in-patient and out-patient part. The primary aim of the study is to compare the effects of self-administered 120 µg dasiglucagon versus placebo on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-assessed time spent in hypoglycaemia in RYGB-operated individuals in an out-patient setting.

According to guidelines, when a mild-to-moderate hypoglycemia occurs (capillary blood glucose < 4.0 mmol/L), 15-20g of rapidly absorbed carbohydrates should be ingested. Patients should re-test and re-ingest 15-20g carbohydrates every 15 minutes until they recover from hypoglycemia. These recommendations were principally based on two studies conducted in the 80s before the introduction of intensive insulin therapy. In practice, only 32-50% of patients follow the current guidelines. In addition, recent studies suggest that under current intensive insulin therapies, an initial correction with 15g of oral glucose may be insufficient to rapidly correct mild-to-moderate hypoglycemia. With the development and increasing usage of newer glucose monitoring technologies, the community is witnessing a shift in hypoglycemia management, from a reactive to a proactive approach (e.g., prevent imminent episodes rather than treating established episodes).

This clinical study will examine the safety and tolerability, as well as the effects of orally administered mizagliflozin on post prandial glucose and insulin levels in subjects diagnosed with post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH).

This study is designed to look at how snacking during exercise may help prevent low blood sugars while subjects are on the "closed loop artificial pancreas." This system uses a continuous glucose sensor, an insulin pump, and a computer program that automatically determines how much insulin to give based on the sensor glucose level.

Recently, we generated a new multidisciplinary ubiquitous healthcare system by upgrading our clinical decision supporting system (CDSS) rule engine, and integrating a physical activity-monitoring device and dietary feedback into a comprehensive package. We hypothesize that individualized multidisciplinary u-healthcare service combined with exercise monitoring and dietary feedback will result in better glucose control with less hypoglycemia in an elderly population.

In this study, participants with Type 1 diabetes received insulin through an infusion into a vein to reduce their blood glucose, and then received nasal glucagon (NG) or glucagon for injection under the skin, and their blood glucose was measured for 3 hours. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intranasal and subcutaneous glucagon (SC) in reversing insulin-induced hypoglycemia in participants with type 1 diabetes.

Up to two hundred (200) adult participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) aged 18 to 75 years will be selected for inclusion in the study. The target is to obtain treatment response and user-experience data following use of nasal glucagon (AMG504-1) in treating episodes of hypoglycemia. The population will be enriched to include participants who suffer from impaired hypoglycemia awareness.

Low blood sugar is also called hypoglycemia. Usually, it is mild and can be treated quickly and easily by eating or drinking a small amount of a sugar-rich food. If low blood sugar is left untreated, it can get worse and cause confusion, clumsiness or fainting. Severe hypoglycemia can lead to seizures, coma, and even death. Some people with diabetes do not have early warning signs of low blood sugar. This condition is called hypoglycemia unawareness. It happens when the body stops reacting to low blood sugar levels and the person does not realize that they need to treat their hypoglycemia. This can lead to more severe and dangerous hypoglycemia. The purpose of this early study is to see if a drug called naltrexone should be studied more in people with Type I diabetes and hypoglycemia unawareness. This study will show whether naltrexone could reduce hypoglycemia unawareness. The study will also show, by using magnetic resonance imaging (also called MRI), whether naltrexone changes the way blood flows in the brain when a person is experiencing hypoglycemia.

This is a medical research study designed to see if an infusion of a naturally occurring hormone, GLP-1, works when used to decrease blood sugar during cardiac surgery.
