Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) continues to be a disease plagued by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance (IR), and increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) despite advances in insulin delivery and glucose monitoring. Therefore new approaches are needed. Bromocriptine (BC), a dopamine (DA) agonist, has long been widely used for treating Parkinson's disease and prolactinoma. Its recent approval in a quick release formulation, BCQR, for type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an exciting development, representing a novel mechanism for improving IR. BCQR has not been studied in T1D, but it's mechanism of action, mechanistic studies, and preliminary data support the proposed study of possible benefits of BCQR on insulin action, glycemic control, and the vasculature in T1D. This study has received an exemption from the FDA to study BCQR in adults with T1D and an IND approval (131360) to study BCQR in adolescents with T1D. This is a random-order, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of a 4 week intervention. Outcomes will include fasting and postprandial glucose, glycemic variability, insulin dosing, hypoglycemia frequency and awareness, sleep quality, and metabolic hormone levels.

The objective of this study is to assess pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and safety of ASP1941 in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus when administered once daily (q.d.) for 2 weeks.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the insulin secreting βcells of the pancreas are destroyed such that the patient is reliant on injection of insulin to adequately control blood glucose levels for the remainder of his/her life. The autoimmune process targets proteins in beta-cells which are termed autoantigens. This is a Phase 1 study using a novel investigational medicinal product (IMP) known as MultiPepT1De in a study of safety and tolerability of administration in patients with recent onset Type 1 diabetes. MultiPepT1De is a mixture of peptides from islet auto antigens. The mixture has been designed to induce or restore immunological tolerance to the beta-cell and thus control or limit autoimmunity to protect beta-cells

This is a blinded, randomized crossover study to compare the safety and efficacy of G-Pen (glucagon injection) to Lilly Glucagon (glucagon for injection [rDNA origin]) for hypoglycemia rescue of adult patients with type 1 diabetes.

To assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of once daily oral doses of empagliflozin in Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus as adjunctive therapy to insulin.

Comparison of 2 doses of empagliflozin vs placebo in patients already using either an insulin regimen of multiple daily injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Randomisation to 3 treatments arms (equal assignment) following a screening period, an optimisation period and a run-in period. 52 week double-blind treatment period, and 3 week follow-up period.

This is a feasibility study of an artificial pancreas (AP) system with our previously validated Zone-MPC and Health Monitoring System (HMS) algorithms (ClinicalTraisl.gov: NCT01929798) integrated into the Diabetes Assistant (DiAs) system.

The primary objective of this study was to define the dose leading to desirable efficacy, as measured by the change in hemoglobin A1C (A1C) between Baseline and Week 12.

A keystone in preventing diabetic complications in patients with type 1 diabetes is good glycaemic control. Frequent self-measurements of blood glucose (SMBG) levels have been an essential part of insulin dosing before meals. However, in recent years continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has become a treatment option to inform the patient when glucose levels may be too high or low. In some countries, including Sweden, CGM is reimbursed only when combined with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusions (CSII) in patients with very poor glycaemic control or a history of repeated severe hypoglycaemia in adults with type 1 diabetes. This is based on existing clinical trial data showing a beneficial effect on HbA1c when CGM is combined with CSII. However, despite the fact that the majority of adults with type 1 diabetes are treated with multiple daily insulin injections (MDI), studies on the effect of CGM in patients with type 1 diabetes treated with MDI are sparse. Therefore, the investigators initiated the CGMMDI trial, an ongoing, cross-over clinical trial including 161 MDI patients receiving CGM over 6 months, followed by conventional therapy over six months, with a four-month wash-out period in-between treatment. Evaluations include glycaemic control, hypoglycaemia, quality of life, fear of hypoglycaemia, treatment satisfaction, physical activity, and safety. From a research or regulatory standpoint, long-term data on treatment effects are expected to a greater extent today than in previous years, due to various reasons, e.g., to evaluate any sustained beneficial effects over time, or long-term patient safety. Accordingly, follow-up of treatment in an extension phase after randomized diabetes trials have become more common over time, especially where many novel glucose-lowering treatments are concerned. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to evaluate long-term effects of CGM in patients with type 1 diabetes treated with MDI. Patients who consent in an extension phase over 1 year of the CGMMDI trial will receive CGM, and evaluations will be performed on sustained glycaemic control effects, hypoglycaemia, glycaemic variability, quality of life, fear of hypoglycaemia, treatment satisfaction, physical activity, and safety.

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. The purpose is to confirm efficacy in terms of glycaemic control of treatment with mealtime faster-acting insulin aspart in combination with insulin degludec in adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus.
