DINE Trial Summary

This trial studies the effect of a low glycemic load diet on adults with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes. It will use glucose monitors to measure the diet in a controlled and free-living setting.

Who is the study for?
Adults with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) who are over 18, have had certain levels of blood glucose or HbA1c in the past two years, use insulin, and require pancreatic enzyme replacement can join. Those pregnant, on specific diets, with severe lung function impairment or recent changes in CF treatments cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing how a low glycemic load diet affects blood sugar control and body composition in adults with CFRD. Participants will be monitored using continuous glucose monitors both during controlled meal delivery and free-living conditions to evaluate the diet's effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not drug-related, potential side effects may include changes in digestion due to dietary adjustments. Gastrointestinal discomfort could occur as participants adapt to the low glycemic load diet.
