Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

The Diabetes Prevention Trial of Type 1 (DPT-1) was a multicenter randomized, controlled clinical trial designed to determine whether it is possible to delay or prevent the clinical onset of type 1 diabetes through daily doses of insulin in individuals determined to be at risk for the disease. Subjects were recruited from study clinics and through media campaigns.First-degree relatives, 3 to 45 years of age, and second-degree relatives, 3 to 20 years of age, of patients with diabetes were screened for islet-cell antibodies. Those individuals found to be at high risk of diabetes were randomized to receive either close observation or low-dose parenteral insulin. Those individuals found to be at intermediate risk of diabetes are randomized to receive insulin orally or to receive placebo. Patients were followed for up to six years.

Advanced glucose monitoring systems have revolutionized diabetes care and enabled people with diabetes to achieve better diabetes control with reduced risk of hypoglycaemia. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems provide real-time glucose monitoring and alarms when glucose approaches extreme readings (hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia) or when the change in glucose is rapid. All available CGM systems, except Dexcom G6, require daily calibrations with capillary glucose readings in order to attain accuracy of glucose readings. Decom G6 system is not widely accessible and only available in certain countries. Flash glucose monitoring systems (Flash) provide glucose readings when users actively scan their sensors. FreeStyle Libre (FSL) is the only Flash glucose monitoring system currently available in market. FSL is factory calibrated and sensors are ready to use after placement and initiation. The two main differences between Flash and CGM are user interaction and the alarm facility. While CGM provide real-time glucose readings, Flash is user-dependent for actively scanning and understanding the readings. Moreover, CGM systems provide alarms for low or high glucose and for rapid glucose changes, while Flash does not routinely provide alarms. This is particularly relevant when patients have impaired or lost hypoglycaemia awareness. CGM systems are costlier compared to Flash, which has contributed to the wider adoption of FSL. Several Bluetooth adjuncts have been introduced to market for FSL. These devices attach to Libre sensor and connect to the user's mobile phone via Bluetooth. This enables continuous and real-time feed of glucose readings from the sensor to patient's mobile phone, which enables a wide range of customizable alarms for high and low glucose levels and for rapid glucose changes. This setup also enables calibration of Libre sensor with capillary glucose which, anecdotally, has been reported to improve sensor accuracy. None of these adjuncts have been validated clinically. FSL with Bluetooth adjunct such as MiaoMiao remain cheaper than current CGM options and could be more accessible in some countries than CGM. However, without robust evidence to support effectiveness and safety of such setup it is not possible to recommend this. The Objective of this study is to determine whether FSL with Bluetooth Adjunct is superior to FSL alone in accuracy and reduction of hypoglycaemia burden.

The study will be conducted in participants with type1 diabetes on insulin injection therapy to investigate how the body processes a test formulation of insulin lispro and the effect of the test formulation on blood sugar levels. Side effects and tolerability will be documented. The study will be conducted in two parts (Part A and Part B) to achieve its objectives. Participants are expected to enroll in both parts.

The study aim to evaluate the use of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in clinical diabetes consultations.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a simple text message reminder sent to the parent of an child/adolescent with Type 1 Diabetes(or parent and adolescent) is effective in helping the individual(or parent) become more compliant with self-managing the Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). There will be 5 arms: text message sent to parents of children age 8-12 years old with T1D, text messages sent to parents of adolescents ,age 13-18 years old, with T1D,text messages sent to parents of adolescents with T1D as well as the adolescent with T1D,no text message sent to parents of children age 8-12 years, and no text message sent to adolescents or parents of adolescents age 13-18 years old.

Primary Objective: To assess the pharmacodynamic response (PD) of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of SAR438544 versus recombinant glucagon in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients under induced hypoglycemia. Secondary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single SC dose of SAR438544 versus recombinant glucagon in T1DM patients under induced hypoglycemia.

The purpose of this study is to determine if glucose peaks higher and earlier after a meal when a patient is given intranasal insulin instead of conventional insulin treatment.

This proof-of-principle study to assess effects of different doses (mini and micro) of subcutaneous glucagon analog Dasiglucagon (Zealand Pharma, Copenhagen, Denmark) on the change in blood glucose concentration during moderate-intensity exercise in people with T1D.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is the most common endocrine disorder in children. In France, T1D prevalence is estimated to 12.2 per 100 000. Worldwide T1D incidence increased rapidly in the last decades, around 3% per year. T1D is caused by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, leading to hyperglycaemia. T1D was recently associated an important loss in life expectancy compared with the general population. To date, the precise aetiology of T1D onset and the mechanisms involved in T1D remain unknown and no preventive treatment of T1D exists. It is now well admitted that T1D results from a combined effect of genes, environmental factors and gene-environment interactions. Several genetic factors have been reported as associated to T1D, the most important being the human leukocyte antigen class II genes. Whole genome association studies suggested more than 50 T1D other susceptibility locus, but conferring individually a modest risk to develop T1D. Longitudinal studies demonstrated that only a low fraction of genetically predisposed subjects develop T1D and all these genetic factors cannot explain the increase in prevalence of T1D in the latter half of the 20th century, suggesting the implication of environmental factors. Literature has accumulated a lot of evidence for the role of enterovirus in T1D. Several retrospective, prospective, post-mortem human studies, as well as animal studies, strongly suggest contribution of human enteroviruses to the pathogenesis of T1D. Enterovirus probably play a dual role in T1D, some enterovirus being associated with an increased risk of T1D and others with a protective effect. Interestingly, several T1D susceptibility loci are implicated in antiviral response. Epidemiologic and genetic approaches have led to new insights into T1D causation, but a collective explanation is still lacking. The project aims at (1) demonstrating the gene-enterovirus interaction effect on T1D onset and (2) characterizing the "precipitating" effect of enterovirus on T1D by a follow-up study of T1D high-risk subjects (first degree unaffected relatives with positive autoantibodies to islet antigens). A structural originality of this project is to perform a family-based study of gene-enterovirus interaction in T1D using innovative and robust methods. This project will be conducted in close collaboration between our INSERM unit, the Inter-regional network of paediatric diabetology, labelled biobanks (CBC Biotec of Hospices Civils de Lyon and CRB-LRB of Lariboisière' hospital at Paris), the Centre National de Référence des Enterovirus at Lyon and the Centre National de Génotypage at Evry. The investigators will first conduct a 3-years pilot study (2016-2019), based on a sample of 250 nuclear families ascertained through a paediatric T1D proband in four centres. Families will be ascertained during the hospitalization of the proband at the time of T1D diagnosis. The study will be then extended to whole Inter-regional network of paediatric diabetology. This research is a unique opportunity to explore further the implication of enterovirus and their interactions with genetic factors involved in T1D susceptibility and aims to target high-risk T1D subjects. This innovative project opens the door of the development of preventive therapy for T1D.

This study evaluates a new test formulation of a glucose lowering drug, insulin lispro, delivered by an insulin pump continuously under the skin. The study will be conducted in participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus to investigate how the human body processes the new test formulation and its effect on blood sugar levels when it is delivered via an insulin pump. Side effects and tolerability will be documented. The study will last about 4 to 11 weeks, including screening, lead-in and follow up. Screening is required within 28 days prior to entering the study.
