Active clinical trials for "Hypoglycemia"

A phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-arm trial to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of dasiglucagon relative to placebo and GlucaGen® when administered as a rescue therapy for severe hypoglycemia in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) treated with insulin

The purpose of this study is to see if the use of a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) by people who experience low blood sugars (hypoglycemia) after gastric surgery can help reduce the number and severity of low blood sugar episodes.

This study aims to assess the impact of real-time continuous glucose monitoring on the frequency, duration, awareness and severity of hypoglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes and a recent history of severe hypoglycaemia, compared to usual care.

Objective: Because many people with type 1 diabetes drink ethanol and because glucagon is used to treat mild hypoglycaemia, it is essential to determine whether ethanol will impair the effectiveness of glucagon to increase glucose, which may impair the effectiveness of the dual hormone treatment in preventing hypoglycaemia. The purpose of this study is to determine, whether ethanol influences the glucose response to subcutaneous glucagon during mild hypoglycaemia. The investigators hypothesize that prior evening ethanol consumption does not reduce the effect of a glucagon bolus to raise plasma glucose compared with no prior ethanol consumption. The study aims: To determine the late effects of ethanol on the efficacy of subcutaneous glucagon to restore plasma glucose after an episode of mild hypoglycemia. To determine the late effects of ethanol on the counter-regulatory hormones and hypoglycaemia awareness during mild hypoglycaemia A double-blinded placebo-controlled study will be conducted. Participants will serve as their own controls. Eligible participants will after an informed consent complete two study visits, one with and one without ethanol consumption, in a random order. On each study visit, participants are induced a insulin induced hypoglycemia, seven-eight hours after a meal with or without ethanol. Once plasma glucose is below 3.9 mmol/l, a subcutaneous injection of 100 mcg glucagon is administered. Two hours later a second bolus is administered.

Despite the established health benefits conveyed by physical activity for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), participation rates remain low, with fear of hypoglycaemia, lack of freedom to engage in unplanned activities, and uncertainty in making appropriate adjustments to insulin and nutritional therapy reported as the leading barriers to regular exercise engagement. Indeed, the synergistic glucose lowering effects of peripheral hyperinsulinaemia and exercising muscle tissue accentuate the risk of exercise-related hypoglycaemia for individuals with T1D, particularly if performed post-prandially. Hence, the introduction of commercially available artificial pancreas systems, also known as ''advanced hybrid-closed-loop'' (AHCL) systems, that regulate insulin rates with minimal user interaction constitute compelling therapeutic aids with clinically relevant potential. Nevertheless, we know little about their safe and efficacious integration around dynamic physical exercise. Nor do we know how alterations in carbohydrate fueling strategies around exercise effect subsequent glucose trends. This study aims to 1) compare the efficacy of an AHCL system versus usual care insulin pump therapy, with carbohydrates taken before or during exercise, in optimising TIR around dynamic physical exercise and 2) explore the influence of carbohydrate intake before versus during exercise on the metabolomic, hormonal and physiological responses to exercise.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of exenatide in adults experiencing episodes of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia following Roux-en-Y bariatric surgery.

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous exendin (9-39) in subjects with post-bariatric hypoglycemia. Development of this subcutaneous formulation of exendin (9-39) would represent a targeted therapeutic approach for this rare disease with unmet clinical need.

The purpose of this study is to determine if a small dose of glucagon (mini-dose glucagon) is effective for the treatment of non-severe hypoglycemia in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

The purpose of this study is to determine what the effects are of real-time continuous glucose monitoring on glycemia and quality of life in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and impaired hypoglycemia awareness.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether insulin degludec compared to insulin glargine can reduce the risk of symptomatic nocturnal hypoglycaemia in subjects with the greatest potential benefit from optimised insulin treatment, which are patients with type 1 diabetes and high risk of nocturnal severe hypoglycaemia.
