Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

Use of devices for continuous monitoring of the blood sugar is valuable for people with diabetes to understand their disease and to help prevent low blood sugar. Furthermore, continuous monitoring should be used in drug development to evaluate efficacy and safety. However, the devices have been criticised for being too inaccurate. This investigation sought to reveal the inaccuracies of current devices and to assess the subsequent usability related to the mentioned use cases.

Background: In type 1 diabetes, adolescence is often associated with deterioration in glycemic control, attributed to a poorly monitored diet, little exercise, poor treatment compliance, risk behaviors, endocrine changes with puberty, leading to greater resistance to insulin. Therapeutic patient education (TPE) is the key to successful management of the disease and treatment for adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Ten TPE programs exist in the Mediterranean region in France, and the care teams implementing them wish to promote joint reflection with sick teenagers and families to identify needs and expectations of everyone on priority skills to develop, to promote better management of the disease and improved quality of life. Aim: To study the needs and expectations of adolescents with type 1 diabetes for skills to be developed during the educational sessions, to promote self-management of their disease and their treatment. Method: Four audio-recorded focus groups will be organized in all 10 clinical settings (adolescents, parents and health professionals). Thematic analysis will be carried out from the transcript of the focus groups. Expected results: The results will allow a joint reflection involving the participation of young patients, families, health professionals and the research team to build and implement new educational sessions that meet the identified needs. This action resulting from the research is expected to pool resources in different health facilities providing therapeutic education programs and to harmonize practices.

Given the high risk of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection, patients with T1D and T2D should represent a priority group to receive the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. There are currently no studies on diabetic population response to mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Therefore, in this observational cohort study, investigators will retrospectively analyze the safety and immunogenicity of the mRNA vaccines in eliciting both the humoral and cellular immune response in a subset of patients with T1D who already underwent blood sampling for measuring humoral response against SARSCoV2 for healthcare purposes and based on the clinical practice guidelines. Results will be compared with those obtained in non-diabetic individuals or in patients with non-autoimmune diabetes (T2D).

Lockdown resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic was an unpreceded model of the impact of lifestyle on chronic diseases, especially for adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) whose lifestyle is known to strongly impact disease management. The investigators aimed to assess changes in self-monitoring and glycemic control in this population before, during, and after the two-month French lockdown. Te investigators hypothesized an improvement in glucose control and glucose sensor usage. The protocol will include all patients with T1D from 13 to 25 years old using a flash glucose monitoring related to the LibreView cloud platform. The primary outcome, evolution of percentage of glucose time in range 70-180 mg/dL (TIR), and secondary outcomes (glucose management indicator GMI, time spent below range TBR, and sensor usage) will be analyzed with a linear mixed-effects regression model.

This project explores the feasibility and utility of remote glucose monitoring for a cohort of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) cared for at UC Davis Health (UCDH).

Impaired hypoglycemia awareness, a significant problem for children with type 1 diabetes, is defined as neurogenic symptom response before autonomic response to hypoglycemia. Avoiding hypoglycemia appears to restore hypoglycemia awareness. Investigators have previously demonstrated in a retrospective study that Flash Glucose Monitoring system decreased the risk of severe hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetic children and adolescents, even though Flash Glucose Monitoring system, unlike Continuous Glucose Monitoring system, does not provide glucose alerts. Continuous Glucose Monitoring system, by providing real-time data with alarms, could benefit to subjects still experiencing severe hypoglycemia with Flash Glucose Monitoring system. Besides, in adults, Continuous Glucose Monitoring system reduced more effectively impaired hypoglycemia awareness compared to Flash Glucose Monitoring system. In that context, investigators would like to assess the impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring system instead of Flash Glucose Monitoring system on hypoglycemia in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

A prospective monocentric " before and after " study, ruled in 2 periods of 3 months : during the first period, the patient will adjust insulin treatment as usual, during the second period, the patient will adjust insulin treatment with IRTA support

Data on switching from traditional mealtime insulins to fast-acting insulin aspart (Fiasp) in routine clinical practice are sparse. The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of switching from traditional mealtime insulin to Fiasp in a "real-world" clinical practice setting in people with type 1 diabetes in Belgium.

The objective of this research is to determine the most informative variables for detecting exercise, acute stress and sleep, identify select sensors that report these variables, and develop the algorithms to detect the occurrence of exercise, stress and sleep, to discriminate them and to determine their characteristics. Research is needed to identify which wearable devices report the most informative and predictive variables of exercise, acute stress and sleep with desired precision and accuracy, determine the best location to wear them for collecting reliable and informative data, and to distill accurate knowledge from data reported by wearable sensors. Data and their interpretation should be informative for various types of physical activities, stages of sleep, and types and intensities of acute stress, and concurrent occurrence of these factors. The investigators will use several devices (chest band, wristband and skin patches) to collect data and evaluate their information content and contribution to improvement of glucose concentration prediction, best locations for collecting accurate and reliable information by conducting clinical and free-living experiments at-home to assess the contributions of the wearable device in improving the accuracy of glucose concentration prediction and the performance of the multivariable artificial pancreas.
