Study summary

This prospective, multicenter observational study will evaluate glucose profiles using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in 100 adults with diabetes receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) or planning to start PD within 3 months. The study will examine associations between CGM metrics and PD regimen, glucose-lowering treatment, conventional glycemic markers, dialysis-related measures, and clinical outcomes including glycemic emergencies, hospitalizations, cardiovascular events, and mortality over 12 months.

Study population

Adults with diabetes and stage 5 chronic kidney disease who are receiving peritoneal dialysis or are planned to initiate peritoneal dialysis within 3 months.

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

  1. Stage 5 CKD patients

    1. who have received PD for at least 3 months, OR
    2. who are planned for PD within the next 3 months.
  2. Age 18-80 years old
  3. Known history of type 1 or type 2 diabetes for at least 3 months
  4. Women who are not pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy during their participation in the clinical study.
  5. Willingness, ability and commitment to comply with the testing, procedure and follow-up outlined in this protocol including (but not limited to) frequency of clinic visits and use of pre-specified glucose monitoring devices.
  6. Willingness to abstain from swimming during their participation in the measurement phase.
  7. In the opinion of the investigator, absence of any physical limitations, addictive diseases, or underlying medical conditions (including mental health) that may preclude the patient from being a good study candidate.
  8. Written to participate in the study provided by the patient.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Patients who are planning to switch to hemodialysis or renal transplant in the coming 3 months
  2. \<6 months
  3. Extensive skin changes/diseases that preclude wearing the required number of devices on normal skin at the proposed application sites
  4. > 11% at enrolment
  5. Currently pregnant, as demonstrated by a positive pregnancy test at screening for women of .
  6. Any active acute or chronic disease or condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the performance of this study.
  7. Any active acute or chronic infectious disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose an excessive risk to study staff.
  8. Current use or recent exposure to any medication that in the opinion of the investigator could have an influence on the patient's ability to participate in this study or on the performance of the test device.
  9. Have a known allergy to medical-grade adhesives or known to any of the products used in the study.
  10. Have MRI scan, CT scan, or diathermy scheduled during the proposed period of sensor wearing during the study
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

HbA1c

A blood test of average blood sugar over the past two to three months, given as a percentage or in mmol/mol. 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or more is the usual threshold for diabetes, normally confirmed by a second test.

Reproductive potential

Able to have children. For women this usually means from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery; for men, unless permanently sterile. Read who the line is about — participants, women, men, or their partners.

Criteria about it usually ask for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

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

Start is estimated for Aug 2026; primary completion for Jun 2028, 22 months later.

Of 274 non-industry observational studies under Renal Insufficiency, Chronic, half reached primary completion within 59 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 24 and three quarters within 192. This study's planned 22 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 325 studies reached it within 45 months; a quarter within 22 and three quarters within 191.

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 Aug 27, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
