Evaluating the adverse events and tolerance of R-5280 in Mitigating Type 1 Diabetes in Newly Diagnosed Patients
The purpose of this study is to find out if an 8-day series of otelixizumab infusions leads to greater improvement in insulin secretion as compared with placebo infusion. Insulin secretion will be assessed using mixed meal-stimulated C-peptide. Subjects will be assigned to receive either otelixizumab or placebo at a ratio of 2:1 (2/3 otelixizumab, 1/3 placebo). These study agents will be administered as an addition to insulin, diet, and other physician determined standard of care treatments. DEFEND-1 is now closed to enrollment. DEFEND-2 will begin early in 2010. It is very similar to DEFEND-1 and will again require subjects with new onset type 1 diabetes. Please check back here for more details. In the meantime, established and new onset type 1 diabetes patients in North America are welcome to consider the TTEDD study: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00451321?term=TTEDD\&rank=1
A study to examine the effect of pioglitazone on the course of new onset type 1 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with multiple injections of GAD-Alum will preserve the body's own (endogenous) insulin production in patients who have been recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
This is a phase I trial in individuals who have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within the previous 3-48 months. The study is testing whether two immune system modifying drugs are safe when used in combination and if they have immune altering effects that indicate they can halt the progression of type 1 diabetes progression.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with CTLA4-Ig (Abatacept) in individuals with new onset T1DM will improve insulin secretion (C-peptide production) compared to placebo.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Without these beta cells, the body cannot maintain proper blood glucose levels in response to daily activities such as eating or exercise. With fewer insulin producing cells blood glucose increases, causing hunger, thirst, and unexplained weight loss. By the time these symptoms develop, 80-90% of a person's beta cells have already been destroyed. However, this also means that between 10-20% of these cells remain that continue to produce insulin. Scientists have learned that two types of immune cells, B cells and T cells, are involved in causing type 1 diabetes. T cells are responsible for attacking and destroying the beta cells that make insulin. Although they don't attack insulin producing cells, B cells may be what trigger the T cells to attack. This study will investigate the use of rituximab to see if it can help lower the number of immune B cells thereby preventing the destruction of any remaining insulin producing beta cells that remain at diagnosis. Rituximab is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of a condition called B-lymphocyte lymphoma. Its effects on the immune system are well understood through its use in organ transplantation. Research has shown that rituximab might be helpful in treating other conditions caused by T cells and B cells, including type 1 diabetes. The goal of this study is to find out if rituximab can preserve residual insulin secretion and prevent further beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes.
This is a multi-center, randomized controlled trial to test whether a clinic-integrated, low intensity, multi-component behavioral intervention is effective in preventing the deterioration in glycemic control, treatment adherence, and quality of life that commonly occur during late childhood and early adolescence in youth with type 1 diabetes. The study will also examine mechanisms and processes that influence the effectiveness of family management of diabetes during this developmental period.
Type 1 diabetes is a condition that is caused in part by an abnormality of the immune system which occurs when T cells, which are part of the immune system, damage the insulin secreting cells (islet cells) in the pancreas. Although it is known that T cells are important mediators of the disease, progress in the development of reliable T cell assays has been modest. The purpose of this study is to learn which T cell assays are most reliable and reproducible so that the investigators can improve their understanding about how type 1 diabetes occurs.
OBJECTIVE: This study is being conducted by the Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet Study Group, funded by the National Institutes of Health, in collaboration with the European C-Peptide Group. The goal is to evaluate comparability and reproducibility of measures of beta cell function in type 1 diabetes comparing the mixed meal tolerance tests (MMTT) and glucagon stimulation test (GST). These two tests will be compared to assess the relationship between the MMTT and IV (intravenous) Glucagon stimulated C-peptide responses as measured by time to peak C-peptide and AUC (area under the curve) values. Based on the understanding that type 1 diabetes results from an immune mediated loss of pancreatic beta cells, therapeutic trials and newer measures of beta cell function can be evaluated as endpoints for clinical trials. Direct assessment of residual beta cell function is an appropriate endpoint, as retention of beta cell function in patients with T1D is known to result in improved glycemic control and reduced hypoglycemia, retinopathy and nephropathy. Endogenous beta cell function or insulin secretion is best measured by determination of C-peptide (which is co-secreted with insulin in a 1:1 molar ratio). Intervention studies over the past few decades have usually used measurement of C-peptide. However, the relationship between these or other measures of beta cell function has not been well studied. The relative advantages of one measure over another in terms of variability, sensitivity and burden to the subject is unknown. In addition, the optimal conditions for the conduct of the test need to be determined. An important goal is to develop an international consensus about the conduct of metabolic tests in the context of large, multicenter trials involving type 1 diabetes (T1D) by balancing the scientific data with the burden on the subject.
This study aims to understand the heart and blood sugar health benefits of using an adjunctive therapy to lower high insulin levels in people with type 1 diabetes. The investigators will also look at people with a specific type of diabetes called Glucokinase-Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (GCK-MODY) and those without diabetes to help interpret the results. The investigators will use a medication that helps the body get rid of sugar, called and SGLT2 inhibitor, with the goal to reduce the body's insulin requirements. The investigators believe this could lead to better heart and blood sugar health, including a better response to insulin and more available nitric oxide, a gas that helps blood vessels function well. The investigators will compare heart and blood sugar health risk factors in participants with type 1 diabetes, participants with Glucokinase-Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (GCK-MODY), and non-diabetic healthy volunteers under two conditions: high insulin levels typical of type 1 diabetes and normal insulin levels typical of the other two groups.
The purpose of this extension study is to continue to follow the participants who completed the CLVer RCT for up to 3 additional years. The goal for Cohort A is to evaluate the longer-term effects of verapamil on preservation of β-cell function as measured by C-peptide levels obtained during a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT). For both Cohorts A and B, the goal is to determine if the high degree of glycemic control achieved during CLVer with HCL can be maintained once the intensive engagement of the study team is discontinued. At the completion of the RCT, study treatments end. Thus, during the extension study, diabetes management is performed as part of usual care and there is no study treatment.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if repeat bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccinations can confer a beneficial immune and metabolic effect in new onset pediatric Type 1 diabetes.

The objective of this clinical trial was to assess whether ladarixin treatment is effective to improve glycemic control in newly diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) adult patients with preserved β-cell function. The safety of ladarixin in the specific clinical setting was also evaluated.
Objectives The objective of this clinical trial is to assess whether ladarixin treatment has an effect to preserve β-cell function and delay the progression of T1D in adolescent and adult patients. The safety of ladarixin in the specific clinical setting will be also evaluated.
The purpose of this non-interventional extension study is to continue to collect long-term safety and other clinical data for an additional 42 months in participants who completed the PROTECT study.
This 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.
This study was an extension of the NIH-sponsored At-Risk (TN-10) type 1 diabetes study (NCT 01030861). Teplizumab-treated and placebo-treated participants in the NIH trial who developed clinical type 1 diabetes after the conclusion of that trial, were eligible to enroll and receive teplizumab treatment within one year of diagnosis of clinical type 1 diabetes.
Randomized trial of youth aged 7-\<18 years with newly diagnosed stage 3 type 1 diabetes (T1D) to assess the effect of both (1) near-normalization of glucose concentrations achieved through use of a hybrid closed loop (HCL) system and (2) verapamil on preservation of β-cell function 12 months after diagnosis. Participants with body weight ≥30 kg (Cohort A) will be randomly assigned in a factorial design to (1) HCL plus intensive diabetes management or usual care with no HCL and (2) verapamil or placebo. Participants with body weight \<30 kg (Cohort B) will be randomly assigned 2:1 in a parallel group design to HCL plus intensive diabetes management or to usual care with no HCL.
The investigators aim to further the understanding of environmental factors that underlie the development of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the post-onset disease trajectory. Dysbiosis, defined as alterations in intestinal microbiota composition and function, has been hypothesized to increase the risk of developing T1D in those with genetic susceptibility. Dysbiosis may result from modern dietary habits, such as broad consumption of the highly processed Western Diet, or by widespread use of antibiotics. Here, the investigators propose to examine the impact of dysbiosis on the endogenous innate inflammatory state that potentiates T1D progression. The investigators hypothesize that probiotic-induced alterations in the intestinal microbiota may favorably alter the post-onset disease state.
In type 1 diabetes (T1DM), automated insulin delivery (AID) systems such as the hybrid closed loop artificial pancreas (HCL AP) combine the use of an insulin pump, continuous blood sugar monitor, and control algorithm to adjust background insulin delivery to improve time in target blood sugar range. Systems such as the predictive low glucose suspend system (PLGS) pause insulin delivery to try and reduce low blood sugars. We aim to complete a pilot study involving recruitment of youth ages 7 to 18 years from the following groups with type 1 diabetes: control participants consisting of youth on either multiple daily insulin injections or conventional insulin pump therapy that plan to continue with their current treatment modality, youth being transitioned to the HCL AP system, and youth being transitioned to the PLGS system. Individuals will be recruited into each of the aforementioned study groups based on their own expressed desire to either continue on MDI/standard insulin pump therapy or transition to either the HCL AP or PLGS systems. The decision to either continue with current therapy or transition therapy will remain entirely up to the participant and their family and will be based on personal preference and insurance coverage for that individual. We will not be randomizing the participants to any given treatment group during this study but rather will be recruiting based on the participant's decision. We would like to complete a physical exam with pubertal staging, collect blood and urine samples to evaluate cardiometabolic and renal markers, and complete a DXA scan to evaluate total lean and fat mass. After 3-6 months of either continuation of current treatment with either multiple daily insulin injections or conventional insulin pump therapy or transitioning to the HCL AP or PLGS systems, we would like to repeat the previously described blood, urine, and imaging tests for comparison. We are interested in examining the impact of the HCL AP and PLGS systems on maintaining blood sugars in target range, insulin sensitivity, and markers of cardiometabolic and renal function. We hypothesize that pauses in insulin delivery, as seen in the setting of automated insulin delivery systems, will result in improvements in insulin sensitivity, cardiometabolic markers, and renal function markers.
The study is a two-arm, multicenter, double-blinded clinical trial testing sequential therapy with rituximab-pvvr followed by abatacept versus rituximab-pvvr alone in new onset T1D. The primary objective is to test whether the C-peptide response to a 2-hour mixed meal tolerance test, will be improved in participants with new onset T1D who are treated with Abatacept after Rituximab-pvvr compared to those treated with Rituximab-pvvr and placebo 24 months after enrollment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether teplizumab slows the loss of β cells and preserves β cell function in children and adolescent 8-17 years old who have been diagnosed with T1D in the previous 6 weeks.. Subjects will receive two courses of either teplizumab or placebo treatment 6 months apart.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of different doses of AG019 administered alone or in combination with teplizumab in participants with recent-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D).
The study is a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, Phase 1 dose-escalation clinical trial. The objective of the trial is to determine if IBC adjuvanted with MAS-1 is safe and will favor tolerogenic pathways to restore immunologic balance and reverse type 1 diabetes (T1D) autoimmunity.
Over 1.25 million Americans have type 1 diabetes (T1D), increasing risk for early death from cardiorenal disease. The strongest risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in T1D is diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Current treatments, such as control of hyperglycemia and hypertension, are beneficial, but only partially protect against DKD. Hyperfiltration is common in youth with T1D, and predicts progressive DKD. Hyperfiltration is also associated with early changes in intrarenal hemodynamic function, including increased renal plasma flow (RPF) and glomerular pressure. Intrarenal hemodynamic function is strongly influenced by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which is also considered a key player in the pathogenesis of DKD. Preliminary data demonstrate differences in intrarenal hemodynamic function and RAAS activation in early and advanced DKD in T1D. However, the pathophysiology contributing to the differences observed in RAAS activation and intrarenal hemodynamic function in T1D are poorly defined Animal research demonstrates that arginine vasopressin (AVP) acts directly to modify intrarenal hemodynamic function, but also indirectly by activating RAAS. Preliminary data suggest that elevated copeptin, a marker of AVP, which predicts DKD in T1D adults, independently of other risk factors. However, no human studies to date have examined how copeptin relates to intrarenal hemodynamic function in early DKD in T1D. A better understanding of this relationship is critical to inform development of new therapies targeting the AVP system in T1D. Accordingly, in this study, the investigators propose to define the relationship between copeptin and intrarenal hemodynamics in early stages of DKD, by studying copeptin levels, renal plasma flow, and glomerular filtration in youth (n=50) aged 12-21 y with T1D duration \< 10 y.
