Active clinical trials for "Hypoglycemia"

This study will test the hypothesis that a wearable automated bionic pancreas system that automatically delivers glucagon only can prevent or treat hypoglycemia vs. usual care for people with type 1 diabetes > 21 years old.

The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) bioequivalence of a subcutaneous (SC) injection of 1 mg (1 IU) of Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA) in comparison to the reference product, GlucaGen® (Bedford Laboratories), 1 mg (1 IU), SC in healthy adult subjects.

This study aims to assess how glimepiride affects the recovery from hypoglycemia in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary objective is to estimate the time taken by participants to recover from hypoglycemia to euglycemia after treatment with either 2 mg or 4 mg of glimepiride when compared to placebo.

Severe hypoglycaemia leading to collapse without warning is one of the most-feared complications for those with Type 1 diabetes. The aim of this study is to determine whether detection and targeted prevention of hypoglycaemia by using either an optimised subcutaneous insulin regime or continuous insulin regime can restore hypoglycaemia awareness in Type 1 diabetes. Following a 6-day continuous subcutaneous monitor glucose profile, participants will be randomised to 1 of 3 interventions: rigorous avoidance of hypoglycaemia on current insulin regime; targeted optimisation of subcutaneous insulin regime to avoid hypoglycaemia; or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. Symptomatic experience and severity of hypoglycaemia, pattern of hypoglycaemia on glucose profiling and, in selected individuals, response to hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemic clamp, will be compared over a 6 month period. It is envisaged that successful prevention of hypoglycaemia by one or more interventions may reverse altered hypoglycaemia awareness and prevent further episodes of severe hypoglycaemia.

Prior work suggests exposure to low glucose levels (hypoglycemia) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. However, whether there is a causal relationship between cardiovascular events and hypoglycemia remains unclear with conflicting data in the literature. In this study, we plan to study whether acute exposure of patients to clinically relevant (50-60 milligrams/deciliter) levels of hypoglycemia induces or worsens blood vessel endothelial dysfunction- a key 1st step in the development of heart attacks and strokes. This will be determined in humans both with and with type 2 diabetes.

To evaluate the OptiScanner® for continuous glucose monitoring as a tool to optimize glucose levels in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndromes

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamics of pitolisant in patients with Type 1 Diabetes

To evaluate the technical performance of the hyposafe H02 during everyday activities and during insulin-induced hypoglycaemia, in addition to safety issues associated with the implantation and use of the hyposafe H02 in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

The trial aims at measuring the safety and performance of the Hyposafe device.

The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of sensor augmented pump (SAP) therapy with MiniMed 640G with SmartGuard activation in preventing hypoglycemia events in comparison sensor augmented pump (SAP) therapy with Minimed 640G without SmartGuard activation in type 1 diabetic adults with an increased risk of hypoglycemia. The study should show: A reduction in the number of severe hypoglycemia, fewer hypoglycemic events and a reduction in the time spent in hypoglycemia six months in any group compared to Baseline. A complete prevention of severe and not severe hypoglycemia in the pump group Minimed 640G + Enlite sensor with SmartGuard activation
