Diabetes Clinical Trials in Indianapolis, IN

Aim 1: Characterize shared decision-making and unmet patient-caregiver dyads needs for patients with diabetes and Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD) while using a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device. Aim 2: Develop an interactive tool to enhance shared decision-making for diabetes management. Read Less

The primary aims of this study are: To test the acceptability and feasibility of the electronic DTU intervention (eDTU) that has been adapted for cultural relevance and online delivery compared to waitlist control and the in-person DTU (iDTU). The hypothesis is that the adapted intervention will be culturally acceptable (by participant satisfaction scores) and well-subscribed (intervention attendance rates). To test differences in diabetes distress and A1c change scores between intervention (changes in T2 to T4) and waitlist control (change in T1 to T2) by intervention group (eDTU vs. waitlist control; iDTU vs. waitlist control). The hypothesis is that both the eDTU and iDTU groups will show significant improvements in diabetes distress and A1c compared to waitlist control. In order to conserve sample size and budget, participants in each intervention group will serve as their own waitlist control. Secondary Objective. The secondary aim of the study is to evaluate changes in depressive symptoms, diabetes self-efficacy, and general and diabetes-specific quality of life in intervention (T2-T3 & T4) compared to waitlist control (T1-T2). An exploratory aim will be to compare changes in eDTU to the iDTU pre/post intervention (T2-T3 & T4). The hypothesis is that both groups will show comparable improvements in diabetes distress and A1c. Read Less

The study is a two-arm, multicenter, double-blinded clinical trial testing sequential therapy with rituximab-pvvr followed by abatacept versus rituximab-pvvr alone in new onset T1D. The primary objective is to test whether the C-peptide response to a 2-hour mixed meal tolerance test, will be improved in participants with new onset T1D who are treated with Abatacept after Rituximab-pvvr compared to those treated with Rituximab-pvvr and placebo 24 months after enrollment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Hybrid Closed Loop system (HCL) in adult and pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes in the home setting. A diverse population of patients with type 1 diabetes will be studied. The study population will have a large range for duration of diabetes and glycemic control, as measured by glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C). They will be enrolled in the study regardless of their prior diabetes regimen, including using Multiple Daily Injections (MDI), Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) or Sensor-Augmented Pump therapy (SAP) Read Less

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.

This is a multi-center observational cohort study of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) to develop and validate potential tissue-based biomarkers that predict complete wound healing. Eligible and consented participants will begin standard of care treatment after collection of tissue specimens from the wound's edge. An additional tissue specimen is collected at 4 weeks if clinically indicated. Tissues will be tested for c-myc and phosphorylated glucocorticoid receptor (p-GR) levels using validated protocols at a central laboratory. Participants will be followed weekly for up to 12 weeks or until complete wound healing (whichever occurs first). One final assessment 2 weeks after complete wound healing will occur to confirm healing. 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
