NCT00763412

RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindOther

Summary

The purpose of this study is to provide the necessary data and experience to design a larger, full scale clinical trial to determine if a certain medicine (repaglinide), which increases the amount of insulin secreted by the pancreas, can improve the nutritional status and pulmonary function of adolescents and young adults with cystic fibrosis and prediabetes by improving blood glucose control. The investigators are also trying to determine the relationship between systemic inflammatory factors and glucose impairment.
