In this pilot clinical trial, the investigators will recruit and randomize 120 patients with diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease (CKD/DM) stages 3 to 5 to a patient-centered and flexible Plant-Focused Nutrition in Diabetes (PLAFOND) diet with \>2/3 plant-based sources, which will be compared with a standard-of-care CKD diet, which is usually a low-potassium and low-salt diet, over a 6-month period. Through this study, the investigators will determine whether the plant-focused diet intervention is feasible for patient adherence, whether this diet is safe by avoiding malnutrition, frailty, and high potassium or glucose blood levels, and whether patient reported outcomes are favorably impacted.

The overall objective of this in-lab randomized controlled trial is to test the efficacy of multi-day interruptions in sedentary behavior vs. single bouts of sustained exercise on metabolic, cognitive, affective, and cardiac autonomic nervous system responses in children with overweight and obesity who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. The use of continuous glucose monitoring will provide insight into the daily and cumulative metabolic effects of each condition that have thus far not been studied. In-lab studies demonstrating sustained efficacy of this approach in ameliorating negative effects of sedentary behaviors in children are necessary for the optimization of field-based interventions. Given the lack of success of interventions to prevent obesity-related diseases and increasing rates of type 2 diabetes in children and its related healthcare costs, this study addresses a critical public health need by testing of novel intervention strategies to reduce obesity-related diseases in children with overweight and obesity.

Diabetes technology has revolutionized T1D management, disparities in technology access are evident among racial-ethnic minorities, patients with lower socioeconomic status and those with poorly controlled T1D (A1c\>8.5%). In order to examine whether diabetes technology can reduce diabetes care burdens and enhance outcomes among some of highest need patients, diabetes technology clinical trials must be expanded beyond the very select populations included in studies thus far (ie., mostly White, higher SES). Therefore, the investigators propose to perform a pilot RCT of hybrid closed-loop insulin pump therapy (HCL) in 40 diverse adult patients with poorly controlled T1D (HbA1c \>8.5%) from the largest academic and safety net health systems in the Los Angeles region to determine the feasibility of a RCT in this population and identify facilitators and barriers of effective use of closed loop insulin pump therapy in patients with poorly controlled T1D.

The goal of the 4T program is to implement proven methods and emerging diabetes technology into clinical practice to sustain tight glucose control from the onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and optimize patient-reported and psychosocial outcomes. The investigators will expand the 4T (Teamwork, Targets, Technology, and Tight Control) program to all patients seen at Stanford Pediatric Diabetes Endocrinology as the standard of care. Disseminating the 4T program as the standard of care will optimize the benefits of diabetes technology by lowering HbA1c, improving PROs, and reducing disparities.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. In the absence of insulin, the body is unable to effectively use glucose for energy, resulting in high blood sugar levels. This leads to a lifelong need for intensive insulin therapy to manage blood sugar and prevent complications arising from elevated blood glucose levels. When insulin is low, the body produces ketone bodies. If ketone levels rise too high, they can lead to the dangerous condition known as diabetic ketoacidosis. Diabetic ketoacidosis remains a leading cause of mortality in children and young adults with type 1 diabetes. Sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, such as empagliflozin, are effective in lowering blood sugar but can also increase ketone levels, raising the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. Empagliflozin is approved for type 2 diabetes and has demonstrated benefits in type 1 diabetes, including improved blood sugar control at lower doses and reduced risks of chronic kidney disease and mortality at higher doses. However, its use in type 1 diabetes is still off-label due to the heightened risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. Using empagliflozin at a commercial dose safely is desirable to maximize its potential renal benefits in type 1 diabetes. While there are measures to monitor ketone levels, current methods, such as finger prick tests, often detect issues too late to prevent diabetic ketoacidosis. Continuous ketone monitoring offers real-time tracking of ketone levels, which could enable timely interventions to maintain safe levels. Moreover, there is currently no data on continuous ketone metrics in individuals with type 1 diabetes using sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. We aim to understand the dynamics of ketone levels in people with type 1 diabetes using empagliflozin, including in challenging situations such as during exercise and low-carbohydrate diets while on sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. To this end, we will conduct an open- label, single-arm, outpatient study where 24 participants with type 1 diabetes will use continuous ketone monitoring for a 4-week run-in, followed by empagliflozin 2.5 mg for four weeks and then empagliflozin 10 mg for nine weeks. Participants will perform an exercise sub-study during the fourth week of the continuous ketone monitoring run-in and during the eighth week of empagliflozin 10 mg use. Certain participants will be invited to undergo a low-carbohydrate diet during the last week of empagliflozin 10 mg use. The results, if positive, may lead to i) novel long-term (6 months) data on ketone levels in those with type 1 diabetes using empagliflozin, including individuals on multiple daily injections and closed-loop therapy across a wide range of body mass index, ii) data on the relationship between empagliflozin, exercise, low-carbohydrate diets, and type 1 diabetes, and iii) the creation of important metrics for ketone thresholds that have not yet been characterized. Furthermore, we hope this preliminary study will inform future research to investigate the use of continuous ketone monitoring to allow for the safe use of higher doses of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors in people with type 1 diabetes.

Given the known serious consequences of uncontrolled blood sugars during hospitalization, this research plans to study an alternative seamlessly integrated continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system in the hospital to test a dynamic and digitized, team-based approach to glucose management in an underserved and understudied, yet high-risk population. A digital dashboard will facilitate real-time, remote monitoring of a large volume of patients simultaneously; automatically identify and prioritize patients for intervention; and will detect any and all potentially dangerous hypoglycemic episodes in a hospital environment. The study will focus on clinical metrics of glucose control and infection that are in-line with patient priorities and US hospital quality initiatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Continuous Glucose Monitoring clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Continuous Glucose Monitoring clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Continuous Glucose Monitoring trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Continuous Glucose Monitoring is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Continuous Glucose Monitoring medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Continuous Glucose Monitoring clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Dexcom G7 for Abnormal Glucose Metabolism, Continuous Glucose Monitoring for Type 2 Diabetes and CGM Academy for Type 1 Diabetes to the Power online platform.
