Case Study 2: Insulin Clamp, Body Mass Index and Risk of Diabetes Moderator: Ms. Victoria Pemberton, NIH/NHLBI
Case Study 2: Insulin Clamp, Body Mass Index (BMI) and Risk of Diabetes • Moderator: Victoria Pemberton, NIH/NHLBI • Panelists: • Sandra Alfano, Yale School of Medicine, IRB Chair • Silva Arslanian, University of Pittsburgh, Professor of Pediatrics, Director of Pediatric Clinical and Translational Research Center (CTSA) • Sandy Vasan, The Rockefeller University, Pediatric Consultant to IRB • Lisa Teot, University of Pittsburgh, Pediatric Pathologist & Scientific IRB Member • Richard Guido, University of Pittsburgh, IRB Chairman, Magee-Women’s Hospital • David Asmuth, University of California, Davis, IRB Chair • Description of the case: • The study is designed to determine if an insulin clamp plus a combination of lipid profile, blood pressure and BMI can accurately predict the likelihood of onset of Type 2 diabetes, in children 11 years of age with varying BMIs. • The study procedure involves an overnight fast, insertion of two catheters, and heating one hand via a heated box or heat pad for the duration of the test. Potential risks include hypoglycemia, heat burns and complications from the insertion of two intravenous catheters.
Details of Case Study # 2 • Objectives: Determine the predictive value of insulin clamp studies with serum lipid profile, blood pressure and BMI for risk of onset of Type 2 diabetes • Hypothesis: Insulin clamp plus a combination of lipid profile, blood pressure and BMI can accurately predict the likelihood of onset of Type 2 diabetes by age 21 • Population: 11 year old children in different BMI strata using CDC charts- 5th to 85th percentile (normal), 86th to 95th percentile (at risk for overweight), > 95th percentile (overweight) • Design: Single arm with single assessment with longitudinal follow up • Therapeutic Intervention: None • Assessments: Insulin clamp studies, anthropometric assessment, biochemical laboratory studies • Primary Outcomes: • Association of insulin clamp results with risk factors for development of Type 2 diabetes • Rate and time of onset of Type 2 diabetes by age 21
Pediatric Research Regulations Related to the Case • 45 CFR 46.404 research not involving greater than minimal risk • 45 CFR 46.405 research involving greater than minimal risk but presenting the prospect of direct benefit to the individual subjects • 45 CFR 46.406 research involving a minor increase over minimal risk and no prospect of direct benefit to individual subjects, but likely to yield generalizable knowledge about the subject’s disorder or condition • 45 CFR 46.407 research not otherwise approvable which presents an opportunity to understand, prevent or alleviate a serious problem affecting the health or welfare of children
Key Issues for Case Study # 2 • How does the panel assess risk in this case? • Is the risk assessment different between any of the subgroups considered for enrollment in this study? • Are there previous studies or additional information that might help the panel to assess risk in this particular study? • Does this study require a 407 review? • Should normal, healthy children be included in this study? • Should children “at risk” such as overweight be included in this study? • Is it scientifically feasible to include only children with a family history of Type 2 diabetes? • Are there changes that could be proposed to allow this study to be conducted while maintaining its scientific value?
