The overall aim of this pilot study is to investigate the effects of exercise training on skeletal muscle and adipose tissue insulin resistance in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Read Less

This study will evaluate the changes in glycemic control in overweight and obese adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus after receiving CT-868 for 16 weeks. The effectiveness and safety of CT-868 will be compared to placebo. All participants will continue with their standard diabetes care using either an insulin pump (CSII) or multiple daily injections (MDI). Alongside their designated treatment, participants will receive guidance on managing their diabetes, including monitoring blood glucose levels and diet and exercise recommendations. Treatment assignments, either CT-868 plus insulin or placebo plus insulin will be randomly determined. Read Less

50 children/adolescents (ages 6 to <18yrs) with T1D in suboptimal control (HbA1c≥8.0%) and lower SES (below 200% poverty line) on insulin therapy (either injections or open-loop pumps) will be recruited at Nemours ~ 1/3 each AA, Hispanic/Latino, non-Hispanic whites. All families that qualify and agree to transition to closed-loop technologies will be recruited to allow data to be gathered before and after use of devices. They will go through the process of approval with the assistance of an insurance navigator in clinic. Those not a CGM will be prescribed one as well. Diabetes care will be 'real life', devices will be prescribed, and care per clinic routine with periodic device downloads. Principal outcome, time-in-range, will be analyzed at 3-months compared to baseline, each participant their own control. Secondary outcomes including HbA1c, other glucose metrics and questionnaires related to use of technology and diabetes distress will be also analyzed. All outcomes will also be collected at 6-months. Results could have important and fast applicability to the field and help better inform decision makers, including payers, clinicians, and patients and families and could serve to decrease health care disparities in this needy population.
