Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

This study will explore the cerebral mechanisms of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) in type 1 diabetics following exposure to experimental recurrent hypoglycemia (HG). To induce IAH, patients with T1D identified to have normal awareness of hypoglycemia (NAH) will undergo three 2-hour long hypoglycemic clamps. Neurochemical profiles will be measured by high field MRS before and after induction of IAH. Subject glycemic variability for 2 weeks and activity/sleep for 1 week before each study will be monitored as all factors have been shown to alter responses to HG.

A Post Approval Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Effectiveness of the Eversense® Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System over repeat insertion and removal cycles and to demonstrate the long-term safety of the Eversense® CGM System

This is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional study that focuses on the long- term effects following participation in selected ITN new-onset Type1 Diabetes Mellitus studies with immunomodulatory agents (T1DM, T1D). This observational study will: follow participants to determine how long they continue to produce insulin, and will also assess how changes in the immune system over time relate to the ability to produce insulin. This information could help design better therapies for type 1 diabetes in the future.

In preparation for the randomized clinical trial of a new behavioral intervention for preteens with type 1 diabetes and their parents, the study is first enrolling adolescents with type 1 diabetes to create videos about living well with type 1 diabetes. The videos will be used in the intervention materials for the randomized clinical trial.

This study explored the effects of self-compassion intervention on diabetes distress and self-compassion.

In partnership with Helmsley Charitable Trust, the Sanford PLEDGE Study is a large-scale, observational, feasibility study of general population screening for T1D and celiac autoantibodies. Screening is incorporated into routine health care visits within an integrated health system.

The aim of the study is to assess whether the implementation of faster insulin aspart in children with Type 1 diabetes treated with intensive insulin therapy with the use of an insulin pump and using Real Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring (RT-CGM) systems leads to prolonged time in range (TIR) compared to insulin aspart.

People with type 1 diabetes need long-term insulin injections. However, needles may cause discomfort or provoke anxiety if the patient has needle phobia, factors that contribute to poor compliance with insulin, especially in younger patients. Use of needle-free technology has been proposed as a strategy to mitigate these problems. There have been few studies on the efficacy of needle-free syringes for patients with type 1 diabetes. To determine the efficacy of needle-free injection of insulin in its patient population, people with type 1 diabetes, we conduct a pilot study to assess glycemic control and injection experience of patients. For the comparator device, we used an insulin pen. The primary objective is to explore whether needle-free syringes are more beneficial to control blood glucose than insulin pens of type 1 diabetes, which the blood sugar fluctuates significantly. The secondary objective is to evaluate the experience and safety of insulin administration by the needle-free injection.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly, and type 1 diabetes. In people with type 1 diabetes, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels that can cause damage to the kidneys. CKD often occurs together with or as a consequence of type 1 diabetes. The study treatment finerenone works by blocking certain proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptors. An increased stimulation of these proteins is thought to damage the kidneys and the heart. By lowering their stimulation, finerenone reduces the risk of kidney disease progressively getting worse. Finerenone is approved for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and type 2 diabetes. In this study, researchers want to learn if finerenone works better than placebo in reducing the participants' kidney disease from getting worse when given in addition to standard of care (SOC) treatment. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. SOC is a procedure or treatment that medical experts consider most appropriate for a condition or disease. To find out how well finerenone works, the level of a protein (albumin) in the urine will be measured. Researchers also want to know how safe finerenone is. To do this, the researchers will collect the number of participants with: medical problems (also called treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)) serious TEAEs. An TEAE is considered 'serious' when it leads to death, puts the participant's life at risk, requires hospitalization, causes disability, causes a baby being born with medical problems, or is medically important higher than normal blood levels of potassium (hyperkalaemia). Depending on the treatment group, the participants will either take finerenone or placebo, Importantly, the participants will also continue to take their regular SOC medicines. The participants will be in the study for up to 7.5 months and will take the study treatments for 6 months. During the study, they will visit the study site at least 6 times. The study team will: collect blood and urine samples check the participants' vital signs such as blood pressure and heart rate do a physical examination including height and weight check the participants' heart health by using an electrocardiogram (ECG) do pregnancy tests in women of childbearing potential

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of a ketogenic diet on the progression and control of type 1 diabetes in children with newly diagnosed diabetes. The main questions to answer are: Does a ketogenic diet prolong the honeymoon period of type 1 diabetes? Does a ketogenic diet improve diabetes control? Is a ketogenic diet safe, acceptable and sustainable in children with newly diagnosed diabetes? What are the microbiome, inflammatory and metabolic changes linking diet to β-cell function? Participants will receive a combination of free meals, groceries, micronutrient supplements, and intensive diet and diabetes education for 9 months. Diabetes care devices will be connected for cloud-based data collection. Bi-weekly data downloads and remote check-ins will assess dietary intake, satisfaction with diet and study procedures, and possible safety concerns. During five study visits held at at baseline, 1, 5, 9 and 21 months, an intravenous catheter (IV) will be placed for collection of 5 blood samples before and up to 2 hours after a liquid test meal (protein shake) to assess insulin response. A stool sample will also be collected to assess microbiome changes. Children and their caregivers will participate in focus groups, semi-structured interviews, and online questionnaires to assess their experience with the diet and diabetes care, general well-being and quality of life. Comparison will be made between a ketogenic vs standard diet.
