NCT07322380
The aim of this study will be to evaluate the feasibility of an autoantibody-based type 1 diabetes screening program for first degree relatives of people living with type 1 diabetes within the province of Quebec. Feasibility of follow-up strategies of "at-risk" individuals will also be assessed. This project will be divided into two phases, with the aim to evaluate: 1. The feasibility of a IAb (islet antibody)-based screening process for first degree relatives of people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). 2. The feasibility of two approaches for follow-up monitoring in case of positive screening: centralized (within the organization) and decentralized approach (relying on individuals' healthcare providers), in the Quebec province setting. Participants will come to the laboratory for blood sample collection, medical history and genetic risk score assessment, as well as anthropometric and cutaneous advanced glycated end (AGE) products measurements. A series of questionnaires will be completed. After screening results are obtained (i.e., presence or absence of IAbs), a virtual visit will be conducted to communicate results to participants. A positive result for IAb will warrant a second test for confirmation , using WBD within 3 months of initial screening. After IAb positivity confirmation, participants will be invited to participate in phase 2 of this project (monitoring). Participants will be given the opportunity to select either a centralized or decentralized path for study monitoring. Follow-up will be dependent of the stage of T1D: * Participants in pre-stage 1 or stage 1 (2 or more positive IAbs without dysglycemia) T1D will receive a follow-up phone call six months after the initial screening. * Participants in stage 2 (2 or more positive IAbs with dysglycemia) will be contacted one month after screening.
NCT07011147
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of the iLet Bionic Pancreas (BP) System in adults with insulin-treated diabetes (type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes) compared to standard of care when ordered by primary care providers. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the iLet BP by deployed in primary care settings to adults with insulin-treated diabetes (type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes)? Researchers will compare 13-weeks of iLet BP use to routine care to see if iLet BP use has a greater reduction in HbA1c compared to13-weeks of routine care. Participants will: Use the iLet BP for 13-weeks or continue their routine care Be trained to use the study devices or continue their routine care Complete a virtual screening visit, mid-period follow up calls and a final visit Complete baseline CGM collection Complete surveys and fingerstick a1c blood tests Routine care participants will have the option to complete an observational extension phase where they will wear the iLet BP for 13-weeks
NCT06752369
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if implementing a single-session depression intervention for youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is feasible and acceptable to patients. can help improve mood and health outcomes. It will also learn about the initial efficacy of the intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is a single-session depression intervention for youth with T1D feasible to recruit and implement? 2. Is a single-session depression intervention for youth with T1D acceptable to patients (i.e., do they find it helpful)? 3. Does a single-session depression intervention for youth with T1D lead to improvements in low mood? Researchers will compare a single-session depression intervention for youth with to a education control to see if a single-session depression intervention works to improve depressive symptoms. Participants will: * Participate in a single-session depression intervention * Complete questionnaires and provide a sample for A1c at a baseline, 3-month, and 6-month visit * Complete daily questionnaires once a day for two weeks before and after the single-session depression intervention
NCT07341243
A randomised, crossover, counterbalanced repeated measures study will be conducted to examine the effect of acute heat exposure on rate of change in blood glucose concentration during 40 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise and for 30 minutes after exercise. Participants will complete two experimental conditions during two separate laboratory visits, with the order of conditions randomised. One condition will be a temperate condition of 20°C with 50% relative humidity (Temperate), the other will be 40°C with 50% relative humidity (Heat). Visits will be identical, including time of day, except for the condition. Visits will be separated by 24h. Testing will take place in the laboratories of the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University.
NCT07286019
The goal of this interventional study is to build a high quality, real world multimodal dataset that combines continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), wearable and fitness data, performance metrics, and saliva and urine omics collected during a prolonged, moderate intensity outdoor gravel-cycling session in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can we collect and synchronize comprehensive CGM, physiological, performance, and omics data around a single cycling session to enable further artificial intelligence (AI) model development? * What molecular changes in saliva and urine occur during exercise, and how do they relate to glycemic outcomes? Participants will: * Complete a supervised \~75 km gravel-cycling route at their own pace under real-world conditions, without protocolized therapy adjustments. * Wear a Dexcom G7 starting \~4 days before the ride and continue through the sensor lifespan to capture CGM data. * Provide saliva and urine immediately before and after the ride for epigenomic and proteomic analyses. This study will generate an integrated resource that supports the development and validation of AI models for predicting glucose responses to exercise in T1D and will help guide future studies on how prolonged exercise affects glucose control.
NCT06967701
The challenges of living with type 1 diabetes often stand in the way of getting enough exercise. Continuous blood sugar monitoring has revolutionized type 1 diabetes care but remains underutilized to sustainably support exercise and related behaviors. This remote participation-based research will develop a mobile application that delivers personalized encouragement and data-driven health insights based upon patterns in blood sugar, exercise, mood, and sleep, to assist people with type 1 diabetes in exercising more frequently and confidently. You do not need to live in Connecticut to participate, as there will be no required in-person visits during the study.
NCT07109128
Despite recent technological advances in type 1 diabetes (T1D) treatment, adolescents are the only age group for which glycemic levels have not improved. Technology and education help adolescents execute the mechanics of managing blood glucose levels, but do not help adolescents manage the emotional distress that arises when T1D management goals conflict with social/emotional goals (e.g., taking insulin for a meal in front of new friends vs. trying to "fit-in"). The emotional distress caused by such situations can be difficult to manage and can lead to unhealthy risk behaviors and disengagement in T1D self-management (e.g., deciding to skip a lunch-time bolus to avoid bolusing in front of new friends). A novel approach in T1D research is to target emotions directly by promoting emotion regulation skills. In the general population, emotion regulation interventions have demonstrated success in preventing both unhealthy behaviors and mood disorders among younger adolescents, including younger adolescents with social-emotional risk-factors like low SES. The investigators' scientific premise is that an emotion regulation intervention for younger adolescents with T1D (age 12-14) could promote skills to help youth manage emotional burdens of living with T1D, reduce unhealthy and risky T1D self-management behaviors, and prevent unhealthy patterns of behaviors and distress/mood disorders that often appear in later adolescence. Using the ORBIT Model, a systematic framework for developing behavioral interventions for people with chronic diseases, the investigators adapted an evidence-based, manualized emotion regulation intervention for young adolescents, so that it is relevant for youth with T1D. The current study is a natural extension of this previous work. For the current study, the investigators propose to complete a feasibility and acceptability trial of this novel emotion regulation intervention for youth with T1D. The investigators aimed to pilot the novel emotion regulation intervention (11 virtual group sessions) with 3 sequential groups of 6-8 young adolescents (age 12-14) with T1D in each group and obtain feedback from facilitators and participants and their parents after each session, and after the intervention.

SUMMARY Rationale: The(small) intestinal microbiota composition has been implicated to play an important role in (human) metabolism, as well as autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes mellitus. Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been shown to significantly alter the microbiota composition, without any serious side-effects. It was recently demonstrated that multiple infusions of own faeces(autologous) preserved residual beta cell function up to one year after start of the FMT. In a proof-of-principle study it was found that encapsulated autologous FMT provides a safe and feasible option for prolonged treatment on a daily basis, which might stabilize the beta-cell destruction. These exciting findings are potentially transformative for clinical practice and deserve replication in a larger placebo-controlled trial. Objective: confirm the efficacy and feasibility of daily ingested encapsulated freeze-dried autologous (own)faecal matter on the preservation of residual beta cell function as assessed by C-peptide release upon amixed meal test (MMT) in recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). Study design: double-blind placebo-controlled study Study population: n=110, recently diagnosed (\<100 days of diagnosis) patients with T1D, aged 18-45 years, BMI 18-30 kg/m2, male/female. Intervention: After inclusion and randomisation individuals will receive for 6 months either placebo or freeze-dried autologous encapsulated FMT in a 1:2 ratio. Subsequently, participants with be followed for 6 months whether beta cell preservation was durable after cessation of treatment. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is long-term preservation of beta cell insulin secretion capacity as assessed by stimulated C-peptide AUC0-120minresponse upon MMT (at0, 6 and 12months).The secondary endpoint pertains to changes in post-meal urinary C-peptide levels, plasma biochemistry (HbA1c levels),glucose time-in-range and subsequentexogenous insulin dose use at 0, 6 and 12months. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation,benefit and group relatedness: This study is considered a low-risk study, 3MMTs will be performed, for which 70 ml of blood samples will be drawn each visit. As of today, no severe adverse events as result of FMT have been reported in this centre and in the ENCAPSULATE trial investigating the feasibility and safety of this approach participants only reported some minor and transient constipation. In addition, the use of autologous faeces comes with a lower(absent)risk for transmitting any unknown pathogens compared to an allogenic FMT. As there currently is no widely applied therapy to preserve beta cell function in type 1 diabetes, encapsulated autologous FMT can have a potential benefit for the participants.
NCT07021690
The project investigates the significance of the timing of insulin dosing for breakfast and lunch with an automated insulin pump and whether it matters if the meal primarily contains high or low glycemic index carbohydrates. We hypothesise that a bolus given 15 minutes before the meal will result in the best blood glucose levels after the meal, regardless of the type of carbohydrates. Participants will attend 6 experimental days over a maximum of 3 months, where they will be served either breakfast or lunch at the research site, depending on sub-study (breakfast or Lunch sub-study). Three different bolus timings will be tested, with either rapidly absorbed carbohydrates or slowly absorbed carbohydrates, in a randomized order for each participant. Participants will take insulin for the meal using the bolus calculator in the pump, either 15 minutes before, at the start of the meal, or 30 minutes after the meal. The development in sensor glucose will then be monitored for up to 4 hours after the meal.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic condition, affecting 1 in 490 children under the age of 15 years. It is caused by the immune system damaging the pancreas, the organ which makes insulin. T1D has recognised stages before symptoms develop, providing an opportunity for early diagnosis, education and treatment which may delay the onset of symptoms. Early diagnosis often relies on a test called the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which is commonly used but not well tolerated, possibly because it requires a drip inserted into the vein, and several blood samples taken over 2-3 hours in a healthcare setting. This study aims to test whether an OGTT using a finger-prick to test glucose, can be done at home. This is the 'GTT@home'. The finger-prick creates a drop of blood, which is done before and two hours after drinking a sugary drink. Investigators will also explore whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), which reads glucose levels through the skin could be an alternative. The investigators plan to recruit 90 children and young people, across two groups to assess the GTT@home. To understand the experiences of those involved in monitoring, the investigators will invite young people, parents and healthcare workers to take part in an interview, to understand the impact of testing to predict clinical T1D. Group 1 will assess the accuracy of measuring glucose from a finger-prick blood test when compared to a blood test from the vein. The investigators will recruit individuals who are having an OGTT as part of a research study, for clinical care, or if individuals have agreed to have an OGTT for this study. Those with T1D will be invited to wear a CGM to explore its use as an additional, practical alternative. Group 2 will assess how well the GTT@home test works when done at home and how acceptable it is. This will only be offered to those known to be at risk of T1D. These studies will help investigators to understand if the GTT@home can be used in routine care.
