Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

This project is designed to study the role of vitamin D supplementation on the honeymoon phase of type 1 diabetes in children who are on standardized insulin treatment. The results could lead to significant changes in the approach to the early phase of type 1 diabetes with a strong emphasis on prolonging the honeymoon phase by using vitamin D and maintaining these patients on a standardized insulin regimen. The overall goal is to reduce the long-term complications of type 1 diabetes.

The overall objective and Primary Aim of this Limited Competition: Small Grant Program (R03) is to address the critical need of identifying and decreasing fear of hypoglycemia, which will be accomplished by conducting a pilot randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of Blood Glucose Awareness Training, which has been adapted for, but never evaluated in adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and their parents.

Multi-Center, double blind, active comparator controlled multiple dose safety, tolerability and efficacy study

A randomized, double-blinded (for insulin type), single centre, crossover design young adult study, on 20 subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1D), aged 18 to 25 (inclusive) years, measuring time in glucose values within 3.9 - 10 mmol/l (70-180 mg/dl) under supervision of DreaMed Glucositter using either faster-acting insulin Aspart (Fiasp®, European Medicines Agency number EMEA/H/C/004046) or normal acting insulin Aspart. Study duration will be about 3 weeks per subject, 5 month overall. The objectives of this clinical investigation is: 1. to evaluate the safety and efficacy of blood glucose control using the DreaMed Glucositter with Fiasp® in young adults with T1D during and after unannounced afternoon physical activity and unannounced meals, in a controlled in-hospital environment. Primary endpoint is significant between-group difference (intervention Fast-CL versus control Regular-CL) in time within range of glucose values within 3.9 - 10 mmol/l (70-180 mg/dl) during the unannounced afternoon exercise and unannounced standardized meals from 15:00 till 18:00 next day based on sensor glucose readings.

Regular physical activity is associated with many health benefits for individuals with type 1 diabetes including improved cardiovascular fitness and vascular health, decreased insulin requirements, improved body composition and quality of life. However, exercise-induced hypoglycemia is very frequent and thus is the main limiting factor for physical activity practice in this population. The artificial pancreas is composed of three components: glucose sensor to read glucose levels, insulin pump to infuse insulin and a dosing mathematical algorithm to decide on the required insulin dosages based on the sensor's readings. The artificial pancreas has the potential to reduce the risk of exercise-induced hypoglycemia but the importance of announcing exercise to the artificial pancreas is yet to be explored. The objective of this study is to investigate 1) if announcing postprandial exercise to the artificial pancreas is beneficial in reducing the risk of hypoglycemia and 2) if an insulin bolus reduction is necessary when announcing the exercise to the artificial pancreas.

This study is a phase 2, single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-arm parallel group (1:1:1) intervention trial to determine the efficacy of 4 weeks rapamycin treatment and 4 weeks rapamycin treatment plus 3 months vildagliptin treatment versus placebo in increasing endogenous insulin production and correcting glycemic lability. It will involve 60 patients with long standing type 1 diabetes (T1D). Patients will receive for one month placebo (Group 1), rapamycin plus placebo (Group 2), or rapamycin plus Vildagliptin (Group 3). Rapamycin will be administered at an initial dose 0.2 mg/kg orally on day 0 followed by 0.1 mg/kg/die (target trough levels: 8-10 ng/ml). Vildagliptin will be administered at a dose of 50 mg x2/die starting from day 0. After 4 weeks of treatment (period A), patients will discontinue rapamycin or relevant placebo treatment, but continue Vildagliptin or placebo for a further 8 weeks and be monitored over this period (period B).

Dapagliflozin has been effective at lowering glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1C) in subjects with tpye 2 diabetes (T2DM), when studied as monotherapy as well as in combination with insulin or oral anti-diabetic medications.This lead to investigations if this therapy would also be of benefit in type 1 diabetes as intensive insulin therapy is associated with glucose fluctuations, hypoglycemia, weight gain, and subsequent insulin resistance, all of which may reduce efficacy. The purpose of the pilot study is to collect clinical data on the HbA1c-dependent effect of a single-dose of 10mg dapagliflozin on the insulin dose administered intravenously during a glucose-infusion and an oral mixed-meal for the ensuing 24 hours with blood glucose kept between 160 - 220 mg/dl. The first objective is to investigate the degree of insulin dose reduction 24 hours after a single dose of 10mg dapagliflozin in patients with type 1 diabetes Further objectives are to investigate the effect on urinary glucose excretion if this effect is influenced by baseline glycemic control if dapagliflozin influences postprandial insulin need if dapagliflozin is associated with elevated ß-hydroxybutyrate levels PK after oral administration of 10mg dapagliflozin

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if immune-tolerance with Alum-formulated GAD (Diamyd), in combination with high dose Vitamin D3, may delay or stop the autoimmune process leading to clinical type 1 diabetes in non-diabetic children with ongoing beta-cell autoimmunity as indicated by positive islet autoantibodies.

This study aimed to investigate the influence of uncontrolled type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) on the kinetic disposition, metabolism and pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics of tramadol enantiomers in patients with neuropathic pain. Thus, nondiabetic patients (control group, n = 12), patients with type 1 DM (n = 9), and patients with type 2 DM (n = 9), all with neuropathic pain and phenotyped as extensive metabolizers of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) who were treated with a single oral dose of 100 mg racemic tramadol were investigated.

To test whether Mylan's insulin glargine once daily is non-inferior to Lantus® once daily (based on change in HbA1c from baseline to 24 weeks) when administered in combination with mealtime insulin lispro.
