Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a common chronic illness among children requiring a high degree of self-management for good glycemic control. Adolescents are at risk for poor disease management and health outcomes due to a number of factors, including high rates of depression, anxiety, and stress. Accessing support for these challenges can be a barrier to care, so the current study, BRinging Empowerment and Attention to Teen HEalth-T1D, evaluates the efficacy of a virtual, group-based mindfulness based intervention and a virtual group-based diabetes education intervention on improving symptoms of depression and anxiety, and diabetes self management in teens with T1D. The study also aims to study how these interventions might be implemented in diabetes clinic settings.

People with type 1 diabetes are disproportionately affected by cardiovascular disease (CVD). Short and irregular sleep have been associated with cardiovascular risk in this population. Improving sleep regularity has been associated with improved glycemic markers however mechanisms by which improving sleep regularity improves metabolic and cardiovascular health is not known. The investigators propose to conduct a mechanistic study using a sleep stability manipulation. This proposal will advance the understanding of mechanisms by which improving sleep regularity influences glycemic control and cardiovascular risk in T1D.

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.

Emerging adults with type 1 diabetes are a vulnerable population. While diabetes self-management and education is known to offer opportunities to develop self-management skills required to achieve and maintain short- and long-term diabetes outcomes, emerging adults are reported to have poor clinic attendance and in turn low participation in diabetes self-management education and support services. This pilot study aims to test a novel approach to diabetes self-management education and support that incorporates technological and applied learning-driven methods delivered through group telemedicine visits to improve emerging adults engagement in diabetes self-management education and support with the ultimate goal of improving diabetes outcomes.

Powerful new drugs that can prevent or delay end stage kidney disease (ESKD) - so called sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - are now available for patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether these drugs have similar effects in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unknown because of the few studies in this population, due to concerns about the increase in risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA, a serious, potentially fatal acute complication of diabetes due to the accumulation of substances called ketone bodies) observed with SGLT2i therapy in T1D. One of the few T1D studies conducted to date showed that implementing an enhanced DKA prevention plan can reduce the risk of DKA associated with the SGLT2i sotagliflozin (SOTA) to very low levels. In the present study, a similar DKA prevention program will be used to carry-out a 3-year trial to test the kidney benefit of SOTA in 150 persons with T1D and moderate to advanced DKD. After a 2-month period, during which diabetes care will be standardized and education on monitoring and minimizing DKA implemented, eligible study subjects will be randomly assigned (50/50) to take one tablet of SOTA (200 mg) or a similarly looking inactive tablet (placebo) every day for 3 years followed by 2-months without treatment. Neither the participants nor the study staff will know whether a person was assigned to taking SOTA or the inactive tablet. Kidney function at the end of the study will be compared between the two treatment groups to see whether SOTA prevented kidney function loss in those treated with this drug as compared to those who took the inactive tablet. The DKA prevention program will include participant education, close follow-up with study staff, continuous glucose monitoring, and systematic ketone body self-monitoring with a meter provided by the study. If successful, this study will provide efficacy and safety data that could be used to seek FDA approval of SOTA for the prevention of kidney function decline in patients with T1D and DKD.

Denosumab for Type 1 Diabetes

Indianapolis, Indiana
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) arises from abnormal immune cell-mediated injury to beta cells that make insulin. The injured beta cells can then no longer make the needed amount of insulin to stay healthy. However, in the early stages of T1D, some beta cells are still alive and functioning. Treatment to protect the beta cells against injury at this time could slow the progress of disease. Denosumab is an approved treatment for osteoporosis (a disease that thins and weakens the bones), high blood calcium levels, bone cancer, and other bone problems in patients who have cancer. The research team has found that the bone pathway that denosumab works on to treat these bone conditions also has effects on the health of the beta cells. Lab studies suggest that denosumab may protect and/or increase the number of beta cells and improve how well they work. This study will test whether denosumab is safe and improves beta cell function and blood sugar control in people with early T1D.

The investigators will assess both effectiveness (primary) and implementation (secondary) outcomes for a distress-reducing intervention, Supporting Teen Problem Solving (STePS). STePS has already undergone an efficacy trial. The current study allows for evaluating the outcomes of STePS by delivering it in real-world settings, using real-world providers. The investigators will train these behavioral health providers who are already embedded in diabetes clinics to use the STePS intervention. The investigators will also compare two approaches to intervention delivery: in-person versus telehealth. The investigators have recruited 6 different study sites across the country, representing diversity in rural vs. urban, public vs private insurance, as well as in ethnic and racial background of the participants. 360 teens will be enrolled and randomized to either STePS or an educational control group on a 1:1:1 basis at each of our 6 study sites: STePS in-person (n=120), STePS telehealth (n=120), or educational control via telehealth (n=120). All 3 groups will be delivered as 4.5-month interventions, consisting of 9 sessions offered twice per month. Quantitative data (surveys) will be collected for all participants at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 6 \& 12 months post-intervention. Qualitative data will also be collected post-intervention through focus groups. Aim 1. To test, in 360 teens across 6 clinical sites, the effectiveness of STePS in improving diabetes- specific emotional distress and preventing worsening glycemic control, both immediately post intervention and over time. Hypothesis 1a: STePS will lead to clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements in diabetes distress. Hypothesis 1b: STePS will prevent the worsening of glycemic control (A1C and Time in Range). These hypotheses are consistent with the efficacy trial and will prove effectiveness when implemented in real- world settings. Aim 2. To assess the implementation of STePS among key stakeholders (teen participants, interventionists). Recruitment, enrollment, representativeness, feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, fidelity, and costs will be assessed as well as preferred implementation approaches. Hypothesis 2a. Stakeholders will find few perceived barriers to implementing STePS and many perceived facilitators for adopting it in their clinical settings. Hypothesis 2b. Implementation strategies will be plausible in diabetes clinics across the country.

Iatrogenic hypoglycemia is the most prominent barrier to the safe, effective management of blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes due to periodic over-insulinization. During insulin-induced hypoglycemia, glucagon secretion is diminished in type 1 diabetes which, in turn, reduces hepatic glucose production and increases the depth and duration of hypoglycemic episodes. We have observed that the naturally occurring protein C-peptide increases glucagon secretion in dogs during insulin-induced hypoglycemia, which increases hepatic glucose production; the experiments in this application will shed light on the translation of this finding to the human.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Type 1 Diabetes clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Type 1 Diabetes clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Type 1 Diabetes trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Type 1 Diabetes is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Type 1 Diabetes medical study ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Type 1 Diabetes clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Continuous Glucose Monitoring for Diabetes, Closed Loop Systems + Education for Type 1 Diabetes and Tirzepatide for Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity to the Power online platform.
