Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy (including durability) of up to 2 REACT injections given 3 months (+30 days) apart and delivered percutaneously into biopsied and non-biopsied contralateral kidneys in participants with T2DM and CKD.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the destruction of insulin-producing cells by effector T cells (Teffs), due to a deficiency of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Ciclosporin effectively blocks the Teffs and controls diabetes, but cannot be considered as a long-term treatment. Low-dose interleukin-2 (ld IL-2) activates and expands Tregs in humans. Hence, Ld IL-2 in patients in whom the autoimmune process was blocked early by a short treatment (2 months) of cyclosporine should restore immune homeostasis and maintain some insulin production over the long term.

Diabetes care is complex and requires a multidimensional approach, but interventional programs are difficult to initiate in low-income and minority populations. In the proposed study, investigators will mentor local clinics via telehealth to initiate our diabetes program, TIME (Telehealth-supported, Integrated CHWs, Medication-access, group visit Education), into their clinics. Mentoring local clinics to initiate TIME is a promising strategy to enhance sustainable diabetes care and reduce disparities in vulnerable minority populations.

This study aims to provide essential mechanistic insights into natriuretic and hemodynamic effects of SGLT2i and GLP-1RA agents in T2D patients. Ultimately, by obtaining physiological data in T2D patients without HF, our aims are to gain insight into how the use of this combined therapy may be used in T2D with HF in future work.

This study has been set up within the framework of the INNODIA network. INNODIA is a global partnership between 31 academic institutions, 6 industrial partners, a small sized enterprise and 2 patient organizations, bringing their knowledge and experience together with one common goal: "To fight type 1 diabetes". (www.innodia.eu) The overall aim of INNODIA is to advance in a decisive way how to predict, stage, evaluate and prevent the onset and progression of type 1 diabetes (T1D). For this, INNODIA has established a comprehensive and interdisciplinary network of clinical and basic scientists, who are leading experts in the field of T1D research in Europe and UK (United Kingdom), with complementary expertise from the areas of immunology, Beta-cell biology, biomarker research and T1D therapy, joining forces in a coordinated fashion with industry partners and two foundations, as well as with all major stakeholders in the process, including regulatory bodies and patients with T1D and their families. The MELD-ATG trial is a phase II, Multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Multi-arm parallel cohort trial. to investigate the effect of 2.5 mg/kg og ATG on the preservation of stimulated C-peptide at 12 months compared to placebo to identify the minimally effective dose of ATG that shows an effect on C-peptide when compared to placebo at 12 months

Although the clinical onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is acute, the progression of T1D occurs over many years often in a patchy manner with inflammation in certain lobes of the pancreas, leaving other lobes unaffected and long-lasting beta cells remain functional decades after diagnosis. Psoriasis share several aspects with T1D, e.g. the patchy inflammatory infiltrate consisting of tissue-resident memory (TRM) T cells, leaky blood vessels that facilitate leukocyte migration and the increased risk for systemic conditions. Moreover, interleukin (IL)-17 has shown to be increased in both persons with psoriasis and T1D. Activation of IL-17/IL-22 pathway is viewed to be both a hallmark of psoriasis and human T1D. Ixekizumab, an anti-IL17 biological agent, has shown marked therapeutic value in the treatment of subjects with psoriasis in several randomized trials and is currently an approved clinical therapy. Due to the many similarities in the current view of pathogenesis and manifestation of T1D and psoriasis it is possible that Ixekizumab can also influence the disease process of T1D.

The study aims to assess the effects of a microbiota-based product containing Intestinimonas in adults with pre-diabetes. The purpose is to determine the safety and efficacy of the microbiota-based product on insulin sensitivity in a target group of prediabetic individuals. In particular, the objective is to evaluate whether Intestinimonas is able to improve the insulin sensitivity, the response to the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and whether it is able to modulate the microbiota composition in the study subjects.

Bariatric surgery procedures induce weight loss through restriction and/or malabsorption. The mechanisms underlying type 2 diabetes remission and others metabolic improvements after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) have not yet been formally studied. The investigators propose a longitudinal study with the overall objective of measuring the long-term impact of these three bariatric surgeries (RYGB, SG, BPD-DS) on metabolic, renal and cardiovascular fate in patients with type 2 diabetes. The investigators overall hypothesis is that some bariatric procedures generate hitherto unrecognized effects on many disease-related outcomes, which greatly contributes to their beneficial impact in diabetic patients. The investigators propose 3 specific aims: 1) to establish the long term effect of the three surgeries on the metabolic recovery and quality of life in groups of diabetic patients treated with insulin, hypoglycemic agents or diet; 2) to establish the long term impact of the three surgeries on renal and cardiovascular functions in subgroup of patients with these conditions; 3) to compare metabolic impact of surgeries to those of best medical care for diabetes in a non-surgical control group. For most severely obese patients, lifestyle interventions, perhaps effective in inducing short-lived weight losses, are ineffective for long-term weight loss maintenance and durable metabolic recovery. The increasing popularity of obesity surgeries calls for a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms. This is especially true and urgent when considering that knowledge on the relative impact of each procedure (i.e. SG vs. RYGB and BPD-DS) in resolving T2D is still limited. Better knowledge on each of the procedures will allow stronger scientific rationale for selecting the right surgery for the right patient and improve care for the severely obese individual.

This is a treatment study to determine if reducing the body's iron stores by blood donation will improve diabetes control and other problems associated with diabetes such as fatty liver disease.
