Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the performance of the Harmony 1 Sensor in subjects age 14 - 75 years.

This study observes the continuous measurement of breathing patterns, heart rate, restlessness, and tremor in sleep using the EarlySense ES 16 device as a tool in the management of hypoglycemia in pediatric type I diabetes patients.

The purpose of this study is to perform a series of islet transplants using the Edmonton protocol. Patients with Type I Diabetes and glycemic lability, severe hypoglycemia or hypoglycemic unawareness will undergo transplantation of purified pancreatic islets from cadaveric donors into the portal vein, followed by steroid-free immunosuppression as per the Edmonton protocol (IL-2 antibody induction, sirolimus, low dose tacrolimus-based immunosuppression). The goals of the transplant are to improve glycemic control, stabilize blood sugars and achieve insulin independence.

Open label, randomized 2-period cross-over study comparing two continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion sets ; MiniMed® Pro-set® with BD FlowSmart™ technology and MiniMed® Quick-set®

The purpose of this study is to determine what corticosteroid receptor (and the dose of) is responsible for cortisol inducing hypoglycemia associated autonomic dysfunction in Type 1 DM. Specifically, we aim to determine whether stimulating the type 1 corticosteroid receptor (via fludrocortisone), the type 2 corticosteroid receptor (via dexamethasone), or both causes hypoglycemia associated autonomic dysfunction in Type 1 DM.

The rationale for the study is to determine if Campath-1H can be used in patients recently diagnosed with type I DM, to induce a state of immunological unresponsiveness such that subjects can safely preserve beta cell mass and eliminate or lower insulin requirements, preserving excellent metabolic control.

This study explores the perspectives and needs of people dealing with type 1 diabetes or their carers to co-design a voice-based digital health intervention for supporting diabetes distress management.

The aims of this study are: To assess the prevalence of prematurity, especially early prematurity, among T1D patients, and compare it to the prematurity prevalence among the non-diabetic general population in Israel. To characterize epidemiological and clinical factors that differ between premature-born patients that developed T1D and those that have not, including the nutritional and therapeutic properties in NICU.

Aim/hypothesis: Subcutaneous insulin absorption is one of the factors which strongly influence blood sugar control in patients with diabetes mellitus on insulin therapy. In response, a regular absorption is influenced by lipo-hypertrophy in subcutaneous tissue on injection sites. So far lipo-hypertrophy diagnosis has only been clinical since there are no imaging studies that have characterized precisely morphometry of lipo-hypertrophic tissue. Methods: In two groups of 20 type 1 diabetes patients on insulin therapy, lipo-hypertrophy is characterized and defined by clinical tapping or by ultrasound with multi frequency linear probe (6-18 Mhz). Patients are therefore advised to avoid insulin injections on those areas so defined. Patients are reevaluated 3 and 12 months later

The main purpose of this study is to determine whether combining meal, glucose, and insulin data in a web-based system will improve management of type 1 diabetes (T1D). No study drug will be given. The study will last about 18 weeks.
