Type 1 diabetes clinical trials in Minneapolis

The DREAM-ON study will investigate whether continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is useful to predict risk for developing diabetes mellitus (DM) and pre-diabetes mellitus (PDM), the need for insulin therapy among those who develop DM, and to determine whether CGM can provide insight into the pathophysiology and DM subtype among participants who have experienced an episode of acute pancreatitis (AP). Thus, the results of the DREAM-ON study could inform future clinical practice guidelines for the management AP as well as potentially extending the licensing authorization for CGM to include use in patients with pancreatogenic (Type 3c) DM.

Rationale: The accrual of data from the laboratory and from epidemiologic and prevention trials has improved the understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Genetic and immunologic factors play a key role in the development of T1DM, and characterization of the early metabolic abnormalities in T1DM is steadily increasing. However, information regarding the natural history of T1DM remains incomplete. The TrialNet Natural History Study of the Development of T1DM (Pathway to Prevention Study) has been designed to clarify this picture, and in so doing, will contribute to the development and implementation of studies aimed at prevention of and early treatment in T1DM. Purpose: TrialNet is an international network dedicated to the study, prevention, and early treatment of type 1 diabetes. TrialNet sites are located throughout the United States, Canada, Finland, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Australia, and New Zealand. TrialNet is dedicated to testing new approaches to the prevention of and early intervention for type 1 diabetes. The goal of the TrialNet Natural History Study of the Development of Type 1 Diabetes is to enhance our understanding of the demographic, immunologic, and metabolic characteristics of individuals at risk for developing type 1 diabetes. The Natural History Study will screen relatives of people with type 1 diabetes to identify those at risk for developing the disease. Relatives of people with type 1 diabetes have about a 5% percent chance of being positive for the antibodies associated with diabetes. TrialNet will identify adults and children at risk for developing diabetes by testing for the presence of these antibodies in the blood. A positive antibody test is an early indication that damage to insulin-secreting cells may have begun. If this test is positive, additional testing will be offered to determine the likelihood that a person may develop diabetes. Individuals with antibodies will be offered the opportunity for further testing to determine their risk of developing diabetes over the next 5 years and to receive close monitoring for the development of diabetes.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) impose a significant global health burden. Yet, no effective therapies currently exist for AKI, and only a few are available for CKD. Despite significant effort from industry and academia, development of pharmacologic therapies for AKI and CKD has been hampered by: Non-predictive animal models The inability to identify and prioritize human targets The limited availability of human kidney biopsy tissue A poor understanding of AKI and CKD heterogeneity Historically, AKI and CKD have been described as single, uniform diseases. However, growing consensus suggests that different disease pathways lead to different subgroups of AKI and CKD (AKIs and CKDs). Access to human kidney biopsy tissue is a critical first step to define disease heterogeneity and determine the precise molecular pathways that will facilitate identification of specific drug targets and ultimately enable individualized care for people with AKI and CKD. A number of research centers across the United States are collaborating to bring state-of-the-art technologies together to: * Ethically obtain and evaluate kidney biopsies from participants with AKI or CKD * Define disease subgroups * Create a kidney tissue atlas * Identify critical cells, pathways, and targets for novel therapies The KPMP is made up of three distinct, but highly interactive, activity groups: * Recruitment Sites: The recruitment sites (RS) are responsible for recruiting participants with AKI or CKD into the longitudinal study and performing the kidney biopsy. * Tissue Interrogation Sites: The tissue interrogation sites (TIS) are responsible for developing and using innovative technologies to analyze the biopsy tissue. * Central Hub: The central hub is responsible for aggregating, analyzing, and visualizing the generated data and providing scientific, infrastructure, and administrative support for the KPMP consortium.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a drug known as DFMO in people with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does it reduce stress on the cells that make insulin? * Does it preserve what is left of the body's insulin production? Participants will take either DFMO or a placebo (looks like DFMO but has no active ingredients) two times a day for about 6 months. Participants will have 6 in person visits and 1 phone visit over a period of 12 months. Visits will include blood draws urine collection and other tests.

This study compares insulin icodec, an insulin taken once a week to insulin glargine, an insulin taken once a day. The study medicine will be investigated in participants with type 1 diabetes. The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin glargine taken daily. The study will last for about 8.5 months.

This RCT aims to improve T1D care in East African children and young adults by testing the hypothesis that enabling patients to continuously monitor glucose levels with flash CGM technology will improve glucose time-in-range (glucose level 70-180 mg/dl). A second primary endpoint is to perform a cost analysis on flash glucose monitoring compared to 3x/day SMBG, to determine whether this technology is cost-effective in the setting of a less-resourced nation. After a 2 week assessment with blinded CGM when a potential subject's ability to wear CGM is confirmed, subjects will be enrolled for 12 months in randomized, open label study, with a primary endpoint measurement at 6 months. All subjects will receive monthly diabetes self-management education. For the first six months, months 1-6: * Half of patients (n=90) will be randomized to an unblinded FreeStyle Libre 2 CGM.They and their care providers will be able to continuously see their CGM glucose levels to assist in insulin adjustment. * Half of patients (n=90) will be given sufficient test strips for 3x daily SMBG while wearing blinded CGM (control group). Neither they nor their care providers will be able to see their CGM glucose levels (the blinded CGM is simply for outcome measurement, not an intervention). As per usual clinical practice, only the SMBG glucose levels will be available to assist in insulin adjustment. * The change between baseline to 6 months in CGM-derived glucose percent time-in- range will be compared between groups (first primary study endpoint). For the second six months, months 7-12: * The control group will switch to unblinded CGM months 7-12 (their data months 7-12 months will be compared to their data months 1-6 as part of the primary endpoint assessment). * The patients who wore the unblinded CGM months 1-6 will continue for another 6 months to assess the impact of wearing the CGM for 12 continuous months (a secondary endpoint). Once the clinical portion of the study is complete, study investigators who are health economists from the Uganda Ministry of Health will perform a costs analysis (second primary endpoint).

The purpose of the CLEAR study is to determine the effect on counterregulatory responses (CRR) of intervening (by attempting to strictly avoid hypoglycemia) to improve awareness of hypoglycemic symptoms among adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). IAH affects 20-25% of adults with T1D, and rises with increasing duration of T1D.

This study is a Phase 1b/2a First-in-Human (FIH) clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy of multiple ascending doses of CNP-103. The approximately 393-days study consists of a Screening Period (28 days), Treatment Period (90 days), and Post-Dose Evaluations (275 days).

This is a first in human, open-label, multi-center Phase 1 / 2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and initial efficacy of AU-007 in patients with advanced solid tumors. AU-007 will be administered either as a monotherapy, or in combination with a single loading dose of aldesleukin, or with both AU-007 and aldesleukin given every 2 weeks (Q2w). Once the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of AU-007 plus aldesleukin was determined, (AU-007 Q2w plus a single loading dose of aldesleukin), AU-007 plus aldesleukin is also being administered with avelumab or nivolumab.

The overriding objective of DREAM is to conduct a prospective longitudinal (36 months) observational clinical study to investigate the incidence, etiology, and pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus (DM) following acute pancreatitis (AP).

The purpose of this study is to check that a new insulin pump, called NMX8, is safe when used with a continuous glucose monitoring sensor called Disposable Sensor 5 in people with diabetes. The study will include people with Type 1 diabetes who are 7-85 years old and people with Type 2 diabetes who are 18-85 years old. Patients will use their current therapy while also wearing the DS5 for up to 40 days. During this time, they will complete a meal and exercise log. Patients will then be put into one of three groups by a computer by chance and given the NMX8 pump to use for 90 days. During this time, patients will either bolus or not bolus for meals and continue to complete a meal and exercise log depending on the group they are in. Once their part in the study is over, if patients like the pump and want to keep using it, they may be able to join a Continued Access Period to keep using the NMX8 pump.

This multi-center randomized controlled trial will assess the safety and efficacy of ATG followed by either adalimumab or verapamil in preserving insulin secretion 2 years from randomization in persons aged 9 to \<21 with recent-onset stage 3 T1D.

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.
