| Scientific title | Optimal Lag Time Study: Optimal timing of rapid-acting insulin analogues administration before meals |
| Study acronym | OLTS |
| Study hypothesis | We hypothesize that mealtime insulin administration at 30 or 15 minutes before the start of a meal will result in reduced postprandial glycemic excursions when compared to insulin administration simultaneously with the start of a meal. |
| Ethics approval(s) | The Medical Ethical Committee of Academic Medical Centre, Amsterdam approved on the 22nd of January 2009 (ref: MEC 08/349 # 09.17.0121) |
| Condition | Type 1 diabetes and postprandial glycemic conditions. |
| Intervention | Ten type 1 diabetics who had been on CSII for at least six months were included in the study. On the day before the first test meal, patients received a subcutaneous CGM sensor (Medtronic CGMS SofSensor) during a visit to the outpatient clinic and were instructed to calibrate the sensor at home according to the manufacturers specifications. The next day at 08:00 am, patients reported on an empty stomach to the clinical research unit and were admitted. Patients received an intravenous catheter for blood collection. Before the start of the daily study protocol blood glucose was measured by finger prick. If blood glucose was between 3.0 mmol/L and 7.8 mmol/L, the study protocol would commence immediately. If the blood glucose was too high, intravenous insulin aspart was administered. If blood glucose had been corrected to acceptable parameters and if these values remained stable (excursions < 0.6mmol/L) over a period of 1 hour, the study protocol commenced. Patients were randomized on each study day by means of opaque, sealed envelopes which were sequentially numbered, between insulin bolus administration at three strata; -30, -15 or 0 minutes before the meal. Each patient was provided with a meal that was comparable to their regular morning meal, the meal for one individual patient did not differ over study days. The first hour before the meal blood was sampled every 15 minutes, the first 2 hours after the meal every 10 minutes and the third and fourth hour after the meal every 20 minutes. Blood samples were collected in 2cc sodium fluoride tubes for determination of blood glucose. The insulin bolus was administered by the patients according to their own calculation of carbohydrates in the meal (at this point estimated to be between 4 and 12 IU per meal, depending on the patient and their respective meals). After the test meal and blood collection, patients would go home continuing to wear the CGM sensor and reported back to the clinical research unit the next day to continue the protocol until all three insulin administration strata had been completed. After the three study-meals, there is no additional follow-up. |

| Primary outcome measure | All outcomes in this study are outcomes derived from the postprandial glucose curve, and as such are a measure of postprandial glucose control on the three study days until 5 hours postprandially. |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) values 2. Number and duration of hypoglycemias 3. Maximum swing of blood-glucose levels 4. Highest blood glucose levels 5. Lowest blood glucose levels 6. Time spent in hyperglycemia |
