Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

Design and methods 12 athletes with T1D and 12 healthy athletes are included in a prospective experimental randomized, cross-over study. Athletes are provided with a Dexcom G6 CGM to measure glucose excursions before, during and after exercise and a Holter ECG-E-patch to measure HRV. Psychological stress levels are assessed from Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2. The athletes are studied on two occasions: Day 1: 5K running competition and Day 2: 5K high intensity training session (running) in the athletes' regular training environment. Endpoints Primary endpoints: Change in plasma glucose from start of exercise to end of exercise during competition compared to training. Secondary endpoints: Hormonal response (cortisol, adrenalin, noradrenaline). Changes in heart rate and HRV before, during and after exercise. CGM-glucose and plasma glucose discrepancies.

The goal of this study is to examine the feasibility and potential effectiveness of a short (4 sessions) self-compassion intervention for adolescents with T1D and their caregivers on psychological, metabolic, and behavioral outcomes.

VC02-101 will evaluate an experimental cell replacement therapy intended to provide a functional cure to subjects with Type 1 Diabetes and Hypoglycemia Unawareness.

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is the most common form of diabetes affecting children, requiring lifelong administration of insulin to prevent complications. The incidence of T1D has increased more among African Americans, Hispanics, and Asian/Pacific Islanders compared to Caucasian youths in the past two decades. Despite advances in insulin delivery systems, fewer black and Hispanic children compared to white children with T1D use insulin pumps. Therefore, most minority children with T1D in urban areas require multiple daily injections (MDI) of insulin which may put them at increased risk of poor glycemic control. Although several factors contribute to worsening glycemic control in adolescents with T1D, studies have shown that missing doses of insulin at mealtimes is a major factor. Adolescents with T1D who use MDI with a basal-bolus regimen use formulas to calculate insulin doses that involve a four-step process. The complexity of determining insulin doses contributes to inaccuracies in both timing of doses and amount of insulin given, both of which can lead to hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. The InPen™ Smart Insulin Pen System (Medtronics) was approved by the FDA for children of all ages with T1D in June 2020. The InPen is a Bluetooth-enabled smart insulin pen that helps with management of insulin dosing and tracking via capture of rapid-acting insulin doses and tracking of insulin in the body through the use of its companion app (free on Apple iOS and Android). The app includes a bolus calculator, which can lead to more accurate insulin dosing, which may improve glycemic control. The specific benefits of using the InPen include the following: simplifying insulin dose calculations, administering more accurate insulin doses, tracking insulin doses to help prevent hypoglycemia, providing reminders to administer insulin, and storing data in the InPen App that can be easily shared with diabetes healthcare teams to assist with adjusting insulin doses. The goal of this study is to determine if use of the InPen will improve glycemic control and diabetes numeracy in adolescents with uncontrolled T1D living in urban areas.

Type 1 DM; It is a chronic metabolic disease that develops as a result of the destruction of pancreatic ß cells, which are responsible for insulin production. Although type 1 DM can occur at any age, the highest incidence is seen between the ages of 10-14. Especially in this age group (7-15 years), who are more social than the previous period with the emergence of diabetes symptoms, both physical restrictions and limitations in their emotional and social functionality permanently change the lives of children with diabetes. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) 2019 data, it is estimated that the patients with Type 1 diabetes in the world are 1,110,100 children/adolescents. This number is increasing each year, and it is estimated that approximately 98,200 children and adolescents under the age of 15 are diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes each year. It is seen that there is an increase in the number of cases in young children in high-risk groups. Therefore, early diagnosis and initiation of treatment is a necessary step. The basic elements of type 1 diabetes treatment are; diabetes education, nutrition, exercise, insulin, blood sugar monitoring and psychosocial counseling. Recently; It is seen that the use of technology in children with diabetes has increased thanks to the opportunity to access information at any time, to choose the information according to one's own needs, to receive service when it is ready, to reduce costs in health, and to be educated at home due to limitations. Taking measures to prevent worsening of glycemic regulation and weight gain in patients with diabetes, especially in situations that cause social isolation such as pandemics, monitoring and management of patients with diabetes during the social isolation process, and enabling patients to access the information they need in a short time are of great importance in terms of diabetes tables. When the literature is examined, it is seen that there are many pages and mobile applications related to this. In this study, it is aimed to improve the self-management of children/adolescents with a mobile application that can be accessed from any device suitable for today. For this, it is aimed to create a mobile application that includes all sub-dimensions of diabetes self-management and contains content that other applications do not have.

The investigators will conduct a trial to evaluate if an online training and support platform can help adults living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in their diabetes self-management. Investigators will compare a group that has access to the "Support" platform through their usual medical care to a group that accesses the platform independently. The first group will be recruited through four participating clinics in the province of Quebec (Canada). The second group will be composed of adults living with T1D across Canada. Participants will have access to the platform for 12 months and will be asked to complete online questionnaires at the beginning and after 6 and 12 months, and share their glucose reader data with the research team. A subgroup of participants as well as healthcare professionals from the four clinics will be invited to participate in an individual interview aiming to understand the barriers and facilitators of integration "Support" in clinical care.

The purpose of this non-interventional extension study is to continue to collect long-term safety and other clinical data for an additional 42 months in participants who completed the PROTECT study.

Islet transplantation can provide physiologic insulin replacement to patients with type 1 diabetes without the complications associated with whole pancreas transplantation. The purpose of this study is to achieve insulin-independence in patients with type 1 diabetes, thereby eliminating the need for exogenous insulin injections to maintain normal glucose levels, ameliorating severe hypoglycemia and potentially decreasing the development of diabetes-related complications. This study will investigate islet transplantation in subjects who have preserved renal function and subjects who have undergone cadaveric renal transplantation, since the latter subjects are already on immunosuppression. This is a single center, prospective trial of islet transplantation in subjects receiving islets alone or islets after kidney transplant. This is a phase I study investigating the use of islet transplantation for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Subjects will be eligible for an islet transplant if they meet all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria outlined in the protocol. In brief, the aims of this study are to establish an islet transplant program at the Ohio State University, determine the safety of islet transplantation in islet alone and kidney transplant recipients, determine whether islet transplantation will reduce the frequency of severe hypoglycemic events, determine whether a novel steroid-free immunosuppressive protocol will prevent rejection in islet transplants and to achieve insulin independence at one year after the final islet transplant.

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease, with a genetic background, resulting from the immune-mediated destruction of beta cells of the pancreas. It can lead to fatal short-term and long-term complications, especially if it is diagnosed late. Three stages of the disease can be identified: Stage 1 is defined by the presence of two or more anti-islet autoantibodies (GAD65, ICA, IA-2, ZnT8) with normoglycemia, Stage 2 shows progression to dysglycemia (impaired glucose tolerance) in the setting of two or more anti-islet autoantibodies, Stage 3 occurs when a patient meets ADA criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes. It's been demonstrated that Teplizumab (an Fc receptor nonbinding anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody) delays the transition from pre-symptomatic T1D (stage 2) to overt T1D (stage 3). Also Sitagliptin, a DPP4 inhibitor, has been proved effective in inhibiting inflammation in T1D both in vitro in T1D mice, and in vivo in Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) patients. Furthermore, it has been confirmed that Sitagliptin reduces the prevalence of worse forms of acute GVHD after myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation. The study aims to investigate if Sitagliptin can have a delaying effect on progression to overt T1D, on the account of its anti-inflammatory properties. The cohort is made of screened relatives of T1D patients, who are classified as high-risk of developing T1D. Screening relatives of T1D patients for dysglycemia and anti-islet autoantibodies. Selecting the patients in Stage 2 Pre-symptomatic T1D (dysglycemia and at least two types of autoantibodies) and then beginning therapy with Sitagliptin, while monitoring their glucose metabolism with a Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system.
