Trial of Early Initiation of CGM-Guided Insulin Therapy in Stage 2 T1D
Type 1 DiabetesPrediabetic State2 moreThis protocol is an intervention study to determine the best education and monitoring strategy for children ages 2-20 years with pre-symptomatic type 1 diabetes (T1D) because there currently exists no clinical guidelines for management of these children in early-stage T1D. This study hypothesizes that the trajectory of T1D can be changed, substantially reducing HbA1c and risk of DKA at diagnosis, through (1) careful monitoring of children progressing from stage 2 to stage 3 T1D using continuous glucose monitor (CGM) technology, (2) staged education targeted to assist families in recognizing evolving dysglycemia, and (3) addressing glycemic abnormalities with early initiation of insulin.
Resistance Exercise and Cognition in People With Type 1 Diabetes
type1diabetesThe aim of the current study is to determine the effects of resistance exercise on performance of the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test and the Colour Trails Test.
Clinical Investigation to Assess the Feasibility of a New Diabetes Management Program
Type 1 DiabetesThe goal of this interventional study is to assess the adherence to a personalized care plan in patients (12-15 years) with Type 1 diabetes
Keeping in Touch (KiT) With Youth as They Transition to Adult Type 1 Diabetes Care
Diabetes MellitusType 1We are testing the effectiveness of an eHealth digital tool co-designed with patients and providers to improve diabetes self-efficacy in young adults as they transition to adult type 1 diabetes care.
Group Visits for High Risk Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)
Type 1 DiabetesThe investigators propose to conduct a pilot prospective cohort study to assess the impact of shared medical appointments (SMA) visits in underserved youth with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D). The trial will employ an enrollment visit, SMA visits every 3 months over a 12 month study period, followed by a 6-month observational period to assess feasibility and acceptability of SMA and the impact on glycemic control, self-management skills, and health related quality of life.
Group Education Trial to Improve Transition for Parents of Adolescents With T1D
Diabetes MellitusDiabetes Mellitus6 moreThe investigators will study if group education for parents of adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) will improve the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators aim to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of parent group education sessions to assess the feasibility and refine the intervention to inform a full-scale multicenter RCT. The aims of the pilot are to estimate: 1. Recruitment rate, 2. Adherence rate, 3. Response rate, and 4. Retention rate. The aims for the future full-scale multicenter RCT are to assess the effect of parent group education sessions integrated into pediatric care, compared with usual care on self-management, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), adverse outcomes and validated measures during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators will conduct a parallel group, blinded (outcome assessors, data analysts), superiority pilot RCT of parents and their adolescents with T1D (14-16 years of age) followed at a university teaching hospital-based pediatric diabetes clinic in Montreal. Interventions will occur over 12-months. Follow-up will be to 18 months from enrollment.
OPT101 in Type 1 Diabetes Patients

Reducing Innate Inflammation in New Onset Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 Diabetestype1diabetes1 moreThis study aims to determine whether Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (Lp299v) supplementation will reduce systemic inflammation and prolong residual beta cell function in individuals newly diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that probiotic-induced alterations in the intestinal microbiota may favorably alter the post-onset disease state.
Serious Game in the Therapeutic Education of Type 1 Diabetes Paediatric Patients
Type 1 DiabetesThe aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of a serious game in the reinforcement of knowledge acquired during therapeutic education of type 1 diabetes paediatric patients. This evaluation will take place within 3 months of the diagnosis.
Exercise-induced Glycemic Variations and Hybrid Closed-loop Systems
Type 1 DiabetesExerciseType 1 diabetes is characterized by high risk of hypoglycemia and associated fear of hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia risk is higher during and after physical activity, especially aerobic activity of long duration. Fear of hypoglycemia can result in avoidance of exercise or overcompensatory eating, both related to worse metabolic control and increased cardiometabolic risk. Hybrid closed-loop (HCL)systems have significantly improved risk of hypoglycemia. They also offer the possibility to set a temporary target for physical activity, further reducing the risk of hypoglycemia during physical activity. Although temporary target seems to work rather well with moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, little data is available for other types of exercise, like resistance exercise, high-intensity interval exercise, combined modalities of exercise, in which the temporary target seems to perform less well. The present study aims to test the performance of current HCL systems under different exercise conditions and evaluate the relationship between different exercise variables (recorded during exercise), physical activity variables (measured by accelerometry) and glycemic variations in HCL system users.
