A Pilot and Feasibility Study to Evaluate High vs Low Glycemic Index Mixed Meal Tolerance Test in Adolescents and Young Adults With Cystic Fibrosis

Sponsor: Emory University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this study is to determine the extent to which excess dietary simple sugars serve as a secondary mediating factor in Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) development. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether conducting a randomized 2x2 factorial design that evaluates acute postprandial changes in glucose over 2 hours following ingestion of a mixed meal challenge that varies by glycemic index and consumption of a sugar-sweetened beverage is acceptable and feasible. * What are the preliminary changes in postprandial hyperglycemia, islet cell function, and incretin response to a high or low Glycemic Index mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) with and without Sugar-Sweetened Beverages (SSB) in adolescents and young adults with CF Participants will be randomized to a mixed diet and blood will be drawn before and after the mixed meal challenge.
