Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to screen and diagnose coeliac disease in patients with type 2 diabetes and monitor the effect of gluten-free diet on the metabolic status

Clinical Trial Description

Coeliac Disease (CD) is a chronic disease with long-term consequences if untreated . CD has been traditionally associated with autoimmune disorders as type 1 Diabetes . However, recent data suggest association with insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes . In a recent study comparing prevalence of autoimmune markers in type 1 diabetes versus type 2, coeliac disease serologic markers were 5% versus 8.7% respectively . In a study published at Nature communication, a genetic link between Ig A levels, type 2 diabetes, and coeliac disease was found . Gluten, among other factors, is thought to play a proinflammatory role exaggerating the damage to β-cells in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes . Presentation of coeliac disease is very variable, ranging from asymptomatic, gastrointestinal symptoms, atypical symptoms, to malabsorption syndrome. Our interest of the very wide atypical presentations is poorly controlled type 2 diabetes . Moreover, it has been recently suggested that gluten-free diet improves glucose metabolism . Screening and diagnosing coeliac disease remain a highly controversial topic, especially in individuals with atypical or no symptoms. A lifelong gluten avoidance can be only justified by a solid diagnosis, achieved by histopathological diagnosis. Intestinal biopsy is invasive test with not that-accurate results. The new guidelines confirmed the accuracy of the no-biopsy approach, only in case of high-titre positive two antibody tests, as published by the European Society Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHN) . However, guidelines intended for adults still insist on biopsy for confirming final diagnosis . The only exception is the interim guidance during Corona Virus -19 ( COVID-19 ) allowing non-biopsy diagnosis with two separate serology tests . However, recent retrospective study confirmed that high titre tTG had more than 95% diagnostic rate, and duodenal biopsy was not needed . For screening, many approaches have been studied, with measuring total immunoglobulin A (IgA) and IgA tissue transglutaminase (tTG) is the obvious first choice. However, for resource-deficient economies, rapid easy cheap point-of-care tests for deamidated gliadin antibodies (DGP) have been suggested . ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
