NCT02202876.

Study name Redox Imbalance and the Development of Cystic Fibrosis Diabetes (Redoxy).
Methods RCT; parallel design; single blind (participant); single centre USA.
Participants Estimated enrolment: 98 participants.
Age: over 1 year.
Includes healthy age‐matched controls.
Interventions Group 1: children with CF aged 1 ‐ 9 years with normal glucose tolerance to receive 1.75 g/kg to a maximum of 75 gm of an oral glucose solution for OGTT.
Group 2: age‐matched control children (1 ‐ 9 years) to receive 1.75 gm/kg to a maximum of 75 g of an oral glucose solution for OGTT.
Group 3: teenagers (12 years and over) with CF with normal glucose tolerance to eat a high GI meal i.e. isocaloric breakfasts with GI of 80, the nutrient composition of each meal will be 10 kcal/kg, 50% kcal from carbohydrates, 20% kcal from protein, and 30% kcal from fat.
Group 4: teenagers (12 years and over) with CF with normal glucose tolerance to eat a low GI meal i.e. isocaloric breakfasts with GI of 30, the nutrient composition of each meal will be 10 kcal/kg, 50% kcal from carbohydrates, 20% kcal from protein, and 30% kcal from fat.

Starting date Start date: November 2014.
Estimated primary completion date: September 2019.
Estimated study completion date: September 2019.
