Type 1 Diabetes Paid Clinical Trials in California

This research study aims to test a financial and health insurance iHERO Toolkit for young adults with type1 diabetes. The iHERO Toolkit was developed over one year with the type 1 diabetes community, The Diabetes Link organization, and experts. Now, the investigators want to understand the impact of the iHERO Toolkit on diabetes self-management, financial stress, and health insurance literacy outcomes. The investigators are doing this study because it will help to better understand how to support health insurance and financial stress and improve self-management outcomes in young adults with type 1 diabetes. The investigators want to understand how the iHERO Toolkit helps all young adults with diabetes, but especially those on Medicaid and who are racially or ethnically diverse. The investigators will ask participants to participate at four-time points over one year. For the first time, participants will fill out online enrollment and demographic forms and 9 surveys. The 9 surveys have 8-40 short questions each, estimated to take about 45 minutes. Participants will also be asked to complete a home A1c collection with a University Hospitals team member on Zoom.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of the study drug (ZT-01) on low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have been having low blood sugars ("hypos") at night. ZT-01 increases the amount of a hormone called glucagon during low blood sugar, and this may help prevent the occurrence of hypos. The main questions this trial aims to answer are whether ZT-01 lowers the number of hypos happening at night, and what its effects are on blood sugar levels. The safety of ZT-01 will also be measured. Participants will be asked to wear a study-provided continuous glucose monitor (CGM) during two 4-week periods when they will self-inject the study drug before bed. They will get ZT-01 at one of three dose levels during one period, and placebo (which looks like the study drug but doesn't contain the active ingredient) during the other. Neither the participant nor the study site will know what they are receiving during each treatment period or see data from the CGM. The participant will continue to use their usual methods of measuring blood sugar (including their personal CGM) and giving insulin during the study. The participant will be asked to complete a short diary each evening, and will be asked to upload the CGM data to a study phone every day. If a participant uses their own CGM and is willing to share information on how often they have low blood sugar with the study site at the first visit to see if they meet study entry requirements, they will have 6 study visits, 2 study phone calls, and be in the study for about 16 weeks. If they don't use CGM or don't want to share their information, then they will be asked to wear a study CGM for an extra 4 weeks to find out how many low blood sugars they have, and will have an extra visit. Study participants will be asked to give blood and urine for testing to see whether they meet the requirements to enter the study, and at the start and end of each treatment period to see if the study treatment has any effects. They will also have their blood pressure and temperature taken at each study visit, and have an ECG at 4 visits to measure the electrical activity of their heart. Some participants will be asked to also take part in a sub-study where their blood level of ZT-01 and glucagon is measured, after the first and last dose. They will be asked to stay at the study site overnight for each set of measurements (4 in total). Read Less

This clinical study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Gastrin treatment with islet transplantation to help patients with difficult to control type 1 diabetes make insulin again and improve blood sugar control. This study involves two investigational (experimental) products not yet approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a treatment for any disease: 1. Human allogenic islet cells (islet cells from a deceased, unrelated human donor) 2. Gastrin-17 (Gastrin) - a hormone secreted by the gut Read Less

This randomized controlled trial will test the efficacy and safety of automated insulin delivery (AID) in hospitalized patients with diabetes (type 1 or type 2) requiring insulin therapy who are admitted to general medical/surgical floors. The main objectives of this study are: * To test the efficacy and safety of AID versus multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) + CGM in the inpatient setting * To determine differences in CGM-derived metrics between AID and MDI plus CGM in the hospital and explore differences in treatment effect according to individual characteristics. Participants will be: * Randomized to AID + remote CGM (intervention) or multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) + CGM (control group) * Followed for a total of 10 days or until hospital discharge (if less than 10 days).

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect of a wearable insulin pump on blood sugar levels during sleep. The study device works with continuous glucose monitors (CGM) to calculate and deliver rapid-acting insulin doses during sleep. The study device does not replace long-acting, correction, or mealtime insulin. The study will involve applying the study device before bed for a period of 13 weeks. The overall study length is approximately 17 weeks. The study aims to evaluate whether the study device is safe and if it lowers blood sugar levels in people who have consistently high blood sugar during sleep and at wake. Read Less

Diabetes technology has revolutionized T1D management, disparities in technology access are evident among racial-ethnic minorities, patients with lower socioeconomic status and those with poorly controlled T1D (A1c\>8.5%). In order to examine whether diabetes technology can reduce diabetes care burdens and enhance outcomes among some of highest need patients, diabetes technology clinical trials must be expanded beyond the very select populations included in studies thus far (ie., mostly White, higher SES). Therefore, the investigators propose to perform a pilot RCT of hybrid closed-loop insulin pump therapy (HCL) in 40 diverse adult patients with poorly controlled T1D (HbA1c \>8.5%) from the largest academic and safety net health systems in the Los Angeles region to determine the feasibility of a RCT in this population and identify facilitators and barriers of effective use of closed loop insulin pump therapy in patients with poorly controlled T1D.

This is a single site, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial to quantify the effects of combination adjunctive therapy on glycemic control, ketogenesis during insulinopenia, insulin resistance, and diabetes burden and quality of life. Read Less

Diabetes technology, such as insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring devices, can help improve glucose control for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), which keeps them at lower risk for diabetes complications, but many Latinx adolescents, who make up the largest marginalized ethnic group of youth with T1D in California, use these devices less often and have less optimal glucose control compared to White youth. In phase 1 of this project, we worked directly with Latinx youth, their families, and diabetes care team members in California to develop DREAM, Device use Reimagined through Education And Mentorship, a virtual peer group (VPG) intervention that will encourage and support the use of diabetes devices in Latinx adolescents with T1D. The goals for phase 2 (intervention) of this project are to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the stakeholder-informed VPG intervention, and evaluate clinical and person-centered outcomes.

A Prospective, Multicenter Evaluation of Accuracy and Safety of the Eversense CGM System with Enhanced Features. The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the accuracy of the Eversense 524 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Eversense 524 CGM System) and ROME CGM System with next generation feature enhancements compared to reference glucose measurements in adults 18 years of age and older with diabetes. The investigation will also evaluate safety of the Eversense 524 CGM System and ROME CGM System usage. Additionally, the safety and accuracy of the Eversense 524 CGM System will be evaluated in the pediatric population ages 14-17 with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. Read Less
