Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

This research is being done to find out if significant changes in blood glucose cause bad outcomes in patients with diabetes.

This is a Single Patient Investigational New Drug (IND) to golimumab subcutaneous (SC) for the treatment of recently diagnosed Stage 3 type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) in children and young adults. The main purpose of a single patient IND is to provide treatment to participants with serious/life-threatening diseases or conditions prior to marketing authorization.

The purpose of this protocol is to provide continued acess to immunosuppressive medications to subjects from the completed/closed trial ITN005CT (NIS01,NCT00014911). THIS PROTOCOL DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICINES TO DIABETES PATIENTS WHO DID NOT PARTICIPATE IN ITN005CT.

The objective of this Treatment IND protocol is to provide Generex Oral-lyn™ to patients with serious or life-threatening Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes mellitus, with no satisfactory alternative therapy available for treatment of diabetes, and who are not eligible to participate in the ongoing pivotal clinical trial (Protocol GEN-084-OL). This protocol is intended as a substitute for the Single Patient IND mechanism to obtain Generex Oral-lyn™.

Due to early diagnosis (<20yrs of age) of Type 1 Diabetes, patients face longer duration of disease and greater glycemic exposure which makes them more vulnerable towards chronic complications. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence and incidence of micro and macro-vascular, pulmonary complications and patterns of growth failure in approximately 500 Type 1 Diabetes patients enrolled at Diabetes Unit, King Edward Memorial Hospital Research Centre. Then follow up of 100 participants who are above 15 years of age at baseline will be done after 2 years to document incidence and progression of complications. This will contribute in assessing the public health burden of complications of Type 1 Diabetes. Factors associated with prevalence of complications will be investigated. This risk factor analysis could aid in further modifying current prevention and treatment recommendations of these complications. Results of this study could modify current clinical practice.

Using qualitative method; a qualitative case study using semi-structured interviews to explore patients' experiences. Study population of insulin pump patients aged 11-18 years old will be recruited from pediatrics with T1D at Dasman Diabetes Institute; who started using CSII at least one year ago and their parents. Semi-structured interviews will be recorded and then transcribed word by word. Data analysis will be performed using an inductive thematic approach.

The general objective is to precise the role of HPA axis activity in neuropsychological consequences of type 1 diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that hyperactivity of HPA axis is associated with higher scores of depression and changes in hippocampal volume and mean diffusion.

To assess the prevalence of hepatomegaly in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus, and to find out it᾿s underlying etiology.

INNODIA is a global consortium linking 26 academic institutions, 4 industrial partners, a small to medium enterprise (SME), and 2 patient organisations, bringing their knowledge and experience together with one common goal: "To fight type 1 diabetes". (www.innodia.eu). The project, approved in November 2015 and launched in January 2016, runs under the framework of the Innovative Medicines Initiative - Joint Undertaking (https://www.imi.europa.eu/projects-results/project-factsheets/innodia) with a dedicated governance structure ensuring close interaction, communication and adherence to the objectives and deliverables of the consortium. 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, 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. One of the objectives of INNODIA is to develop a new European clinical research network with standardized protocol based on repeated measures of C-peptide (including home measurements) and comprehensive collection of appropriate biological samples for 'omics', immune, viral and microbiome studies in new onset T1D patients and high-risk auto-antibody positive subjects. A protocol for the harmonization of sample collections in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic patients and first degree relatives of patients with type 1 diabetes was developed following extensive preliminary work involving partners from across all specialities. Core laboratories with experience in their respective field were set up for analysis of auto-antibodies, fresh immune cells, handling of frozen immune cells, C-peptide measures. A series of standard operating procedures for sample collections and analysis were agreed. Sample tracking between clinical centres and central laboratories was included into a purposely designed electronic case report form (eCRF) into which all clinical and laboratory data collected are captured.

The aim of this study is to compare visual-motor integration, academic achievement and participation in activities of daily living with and without type 1 diabetes.
