Study summary

The purpose of this study is to see if continuous glucose monitoring can identify how often people who have pre-diabetes or medical obesity or well-controlled diabetes experience very high glucose values while receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer or pancreatic.

Study population

Patients will be recruited through the breast and gastrointestinal (GI) medicine oncology clinics at MSKCC.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient aged 18 or older undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens including taxane and/or anthracycline for breast cancer.
  • Patient aged 18 or older undergoing any chemotherapy regimen for pancreatic cancer
  • Have 'high metabolic risk(either pre-diabetes, obesity, or well-controlled diabetes) defined as either:

    • Pre-diabetes and/or obesity group: one or more of known HbA1c 5.7-6.5%, fasting glucose > 100 mg/dL, or BMI > 30
    • Well-controlled diabetes: Known HbA1c \< 7.5 on lifestyle alone or up to one oral antidiabetic agent
    • Any patient undergoing treatment for pancreatic adenocarcinoma on either no antidiabetic agent or up to one oral antidiabetic agent

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with type 1 diabetes, a history of hospitalization for either hyperglycemia or ketoacidosis, a history of hypoglycemia requiring hospitalization, rashes or other skin reactions that would preclude placement of the CGM
  • Use of anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents other than aspirin
  • Platelet count \< 50 K/μL within 60 days prior to enrollment.

Groups and cohorts

  • Breast cancer patients

    A blinded continuous glucose monitor (specifically a Freestyle Libre Pro) will be worn for a 14 day period by patients during the first and third cycles of breast neoadjuvant chemotherapy. At the end of that period (after completion of the one round of chemotherapy) readings will be downloaded from the sensor and the sensor will be removed. Readings will be evaluated by the treating endocrinologist as well as the study team and appropriate clinical interventions.

  • Pancreatic cancer patients

    A blinded continuous glucose monitor (specifically a Freestyle Libre Pro) will be worn for a 14 day period by patients during the first and third cycles of pancreatic chemotherapy. At the end of that period (after completion of the one round of chemotherapy) readings will be downloaded from the sensor and the sensor will be removed. Readings will be evaluated by the treating endocrinologist as well as the study team and appropriate clinical interventions.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Dec 2019 to primary completion in Oct 2023, 46 months.

Of 1,012 non-industry observational studies under Breast Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 60 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 141. This study's 46 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 1,165 studies reached it within 58 months; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 125.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 1, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
