Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

This study focuses on individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and seeks to comprehensively study and understand several aspects of T1D including: susceptibility to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and improvement in hypoglycemia risk using of advanced diabetes technologies, such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM); the differences among individuals with T1D in the risk of chronic complications, and minimize the psychosocial impact of T1D.

Women Veterans are the fastest growing segment of VA users. This dramatic growth has created challenges for VA to ensure that appropriate services are available to meet women Veterans' needs, and that they will want and be able to use those services. The EMPOWER QUERI 2.0 Program is a cluster randomized type 3 hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial testing two strategies designed to support implementation and sustainment of evidence-based practices for women Veterans in up to 20 VA facilities from 4 regions.

The goal of this observational study has the purpose of collecting biological samples from obese patients undergoing evaluation for weight loss by means of medical or endoscopic therapies; and of post bariatric surgery patients presenting with short- and long-term surgical complications. The aim is to enhance the overall understanding of the mechanisms leading to obesity, weight loss, failure to lose weight, and weight regain following treatment. Additional goals are to determine the efficacy of endoscopic and surgical procedures, to identify potential therapeutic targets and disease biomarkers that predict response to therapy. Read Less

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. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the impact of participation in Eat Well for diabetes patients who are at risk of food insecurity. The main questions it aims to answer are: whether there is a difference in Haemoglobin (Hb) A1c measurements and emergency department (ED) utilization between the Eat Well and control groups up to 18 months post-program completion. whether there are differences in cardiometabolic health-related outcomes for Eat Well participants. Participants in the program will receive gift/debit cards for fruits and vegetables and educational nutrition materials. Researchers will compare Eat Well participants with those only receiving educational materials to see if there are differences in cardiometabolic health outcomes. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to better understand how the body handles sugars glucose and fats, such as cholesterol and triglycerides in sickle cell disease, and what puts certain persons at risk to develop diabetes. This understanding may help us to find new treatments to control blood sugar and prevent diabetes in people with and without sickle cell disease (SCD). In this research, DNA and RNA will be isolated from blood cells. DNA will be used to find genes that cause or protect from diabetes, high cholesterol and high triglyceride, and RNA will be used for studies designed to find out how genes are doing their job of eventually producing proteins.

This randomized controlled clinical trial will assess whether continuation of home oral antidiabetic agents during hospitalization can be used as a safe and effective alternative to insulin therapy in the management of diabetes in the hospital. The primary outcome of the study is to determine differences in glycemic control as measured by mean daily blood glucose concentration between oral antidiabetic medications and basal bolus therapy in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

In this study, the investigators hypothesize that studying monogenic variants with strong effect associated with severe insulin deficiency of Wolfram syndrome will provide important insights into the more complex type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Aim 1. Establish and maintain a registry of patients with Wolfram syndrome. An Internet based registry will be employed to enroll participants with the clinical diagnosis of Wolfram syndrome (insulin dependent DM and bilateral OA). Clinical information regarding age of diagnosis and progression of the disease will be collated and analyzed to better define its natural history, along with potential metabolic phenotypes such as glucose intolerance of heterozygous parents and unaffected sibs. If not already completed, blood for WFS1 sequence analysis will be obtained on the participants (parents and sibs also for control purposes) and sent to a CLIA certified lab to define the mutation. This information will benefit patient families and referring physicians by providing a genetic diagnosis and where indicated. The Wolfram Syndrome Registry will foster international collaborations to more efficiently and systematically collect Wolfram syndrome patients and their clinical and experimental data. Read Less

The T1D Exchange Registry is a research study, conducted over time, for individuals with type 1 diabetes and their supporters. Participants volunteer to provide their data for research (for example, by answering questions in annual surveys). Once enrolled, Registry participants have the opportunity to sign up for other studies on various topics related to type 1 diabetes. To participate, you will be asked to: Read and sign an online informed consent form Take a survey describing specific demographic and type 1 diabetes management information Update your information annually Periodically opt in for additional research opportunities (if you choose), i.e. taking new surveys or uploading health device data Read Less

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

The investigators intend to conduct a single-center, prospective, randomized comparative trial of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) who received continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) vs point of care (POC) glucose monitoring. The study will examine relevant outcomes for patients in the ICU with diabetes mellitus and/or hyperglycemia. The primary outcome of the study will be the proportion of time in target range (blood glucose 70-180 mg/dL). Read Less

RADIANT is a network of 14 clinical sites and several laboratories dedicated to the study of atypical diabetes. The objective of this study is to define new forms of diabetes and the unique mechanisms underlying these forms of atypical diabetes. The specific aims are to: Identify and enroll individuals and families with undiagnosed rare and atypical forms of diabetes. Determine the etiologic basis of the metabolic disorder among individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical diabetes. Understand the pathophysiology of individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical forms of diabetes. Read Less
