Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

To obtain safety and tolerability information in patients with type 1 diabetes where Dapagliflozin is added on to Insulin (for 14 days)

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare the glycaemic control of biphasic insulin aspart (BIAsp) 70 and/or BIAsp 50 with biphasic human insulin (BHI) 30 treatment.

This study will recruit drivers with Type 1 diabetes from across the U.S. and assign them to four groups based on their presumed risk level- routine care low risk, routine care high risk, or to one of two Internet interventions focused on reducing hypoglycemia driving. All subjects will be followed for two years to determine whether and which intervention was most effective at reducing hypoglycemia related driving collisions.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare the single dose and steady state pharmacodynamics of biphasic insulin aspart 30 and biphasic insulin aspart 70 in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics after a single dose of biphasic insulin aspart 30, biphasic insulin aspart 50, biphasic insulin aspart 70 and insulin aspart in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

The purpose of this study is to address the safety issue of whether, in patients with newly-diagnosed diabetes who still make some insulin, proinsulin peptide therapy adversely affects the rate of damage to the insulin making cells.

The primary purpose of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to provide preliminary indicators of the effects of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion with continuous glucose monitoring compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose alone on: (1) metabolic control and (2) fear of hypoglycemia. Additional objectives will be: (1) to provide an estimate of recruitment rates, (2) to assess compliance with allocated treatment, and (3) to determine participants' satisfaction with allocated treatment. With increased and immediate information related to current and future (trend) glucose information provided by the continuous glucose monitor, children can then act upon this knowledge to prevent hypo- or hyperglycemia, thus, experiencing a reduction in glucose variability, leading to an improvement in metabolic control as shown by a reduction in HbA1c levels. Research on the effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring on metabolic control in children with T1D using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion has been limited. Therefore, a pilot clinical trial will be designed to provide preliminary indicators of the feasibility and acceptability of continuous glucose monitoring on metabolic control and address the following objectives.

The purpose of this trial is to explore whether liraglutide has a long term effect on clinical symptoms and biomarkers in patients with diabetic neuropathy.

People with type 1 diabetes need regular insulin injections or continuous delivery of insulin using a pump. Keeping blood sugars in the normal range is known to reduce long term complications. However, achieving treatment goals can be very difficult due to the risk of low glucose levels (hypoglycaemia). One solution is to use a system where the amount of insulin injected closely matches the blood sugar levels on a continuous basis. This can be achieved by what is known as a "closed loop system" where a small glucose sensor placed under the skin communicates with a computer containing an algorithm that drives a subcutaneous insulin pump. Previous studies conducted under carefully controlled clinical research facility environment, in Cambridge, United Kingdom, as well as several other centres have shown that closed-loop glucose control is superior to usual insulin pump therapy. The next logical step in the development pathway is to test closed loop systems in the home environment. An essential requirement for conducting closed-loop studies outside clinical research facility is an automated system where wireless data transmission takes place between the glucose sensor and insulin pump. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of automated overnight closed-loop, in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, using a novel system which has greatest potential for use in the home setting. The study will take place at a clinical research facility on two occasions, using a standardised protocol. The performance of the closed-loop system will be evaluated on day 1 of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor life as compared to on days 3 to 4 of sensor life. Data and experience gained from this study will be used for further refinements and development of the system for future home use.

The overall aim of this proposed research is to determine the safety, feasibility and efficacy of the Diabetes Assistant (DiAs) controller in day and night closed-loop control in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes over multiple days in a diabetes camp setting. This will be addressed in two parts: 1) An in residence, outpatient study to determine safety and feasibility of the DiAs during 72 continuous hours of day and night glucose control; and 2) Camp studies planned for the summer of 2014 with randomization to either full closed-loop or sensor-augmented pump therapy over the duration of 6-7 day diabetes camps.
