Study summary

As modulator therapies extend the lifespan of CF patients, the detection of complications like Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes (CFRD) becomes increasingly vital. The current gold standard for CFRD screening, the 2-hour OGTT, is cumbersome and suffers from low compliance. This study proposes that Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) could offer a more comprehensive, easier, and potentially more compliant screening method. The research aims to correlate various CGM parameters (e.g., time in hyperglycemia) with traditional glycemic markers like OGTT glucose levels, GMI, average glucose, variability, and HbA1c. Additionally, the research seeks to understand patient and parent/guardian preferences for CFRD screening modalities. This prospective observational study will involve CF patients wearing a Dexcom CGM around the time of standard OGTT and HbA1c tests, followed by surveys, with the ultimate goal of paving the way for CGM to improve early detection and management of dysglycemia in CF children.

Read the detailed description

As modulator therapy changes the landscape of cystic fibrosis (CF), children with CF will live longer and healthier lives with less pulmonary exacerbations. Still, other complications like Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes and underlying dysglycemia may become more apparent as lifespans of CF patients increase. It is therefore essential that clinicians have the tools to understand early stages of dysglycemia to prevent long term complications of CFRD. At present, 2 hours 75-gram OGTT remains the gold standard annual screen for CFRD. This test is both cumbersome for patients and limits a clinician's interpretation of glycemic control to a limited time frame. Although OGTT is currently used to diagnose CFRD, it can be cumbersome for patients and time consuming. OGTT compliance is therefore not surprisingly low in the CF population with about 49 % of CF centers having a more than 50% completion of annual OGTT. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), on the other hand, offers the ability to obtain more data on longer time periods in a much easier fashion. Thus, CGMs have the potential to glean a more fine-tuned understanding of a patient's glycemic control. Moreover, CGMs can make glycemic testing easier on patients, thereby increasing compliance of annual glycemic testing. The investigators hypothesize the correlation of CGM parameters of hyperglycemia like % of time > 180 mg/dl, % of time> 150 mg/dL with 1- and 2-hour OGTT glucose levels, Glucose Management Indicator (GMI), average glucose, glucose variability, and HbA1c levels. The investigators also aim to explore patient views and preferences of OGTT and CGM for screening of CFRD through surveys after CGM wear.

The investigators hope to be able to correlate 1- and 2-hour glucose values on OGTT to % in range parameters on a continuous glucose monitor. This will pave the way to better understand glycemic control in children with CF and risk for CFRD with data from a CGM even without an OGTT in the future. The investigators also hope to understand patient and parent/guardian preferences towards CFRD screening modalities.

Study Design: Prospective observational study. Eligible patients will have a CGM placed for up to10-day wear within the 3 months before or after clinically appropriate OGTT and A1c. OGTT testing will include 1- and 2-hour glucose levels and HbA1c as per standard of care. A Dexcom CGM will be placed in clinic onto the subjects upper arm. Survey exploring patient and parent/guardian preference will be provided after the CGM is removed.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Patients with Cystic Fibrosis
  2. 10-25 years of age who have obtained or will obtain a OGTT within 3 months of recruitment and CGM placement.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus type 1 or type 2
  2. Use of the following medication: course, Metformin therapy,
  3. Concurrent CV disease or , kidney failure, lung transplant.
  4. Does not have access to personal Bluetooth device compatible with Dexcom G7 application.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

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.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Patients Undergoing Concurrent CGM Monitoring and OGTT Testing

    Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis patients (ages 10-25 years) will wear a continuous glucose monitor (Dexcom G7) for up to 10 days within 3 months of an annual Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and complete a survey to evaluate correlations between CGM parameters and OGTT values and assess patient/guardian preferences for CFRD screening methods.

    Device: Continuous Glucose Monitor

Interventions

  • DeviceContinuous Glucose Monitor

    Continuous glucose monitors, such as Dexcom, have been established as a standard component of clinical care for continuous blood glucose monitoring. These devices are widely utilized in diabetes management clinics and demonstrate a robust safety and efficacy profile. The intervention also includes administration of a patient preference survey as outlined in the study protocol.

Started Jun 2025 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Aug 2027, 26 months after the start.

Of 214 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Cystic Fibrosis, half reached primary completion within 24 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 48. This study's planned 26 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 229 studies reached it within 23 months; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 48.

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.
