Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of MK-1293 compared with a basal insulin (EU-Lantus™) in participants with Type 1 Diabetes. The primary hypotheses are that the duration of action, pharmacodynamic profile, and pharmacokinetic profile of MK-1293 and the comparator basal insulin are similar.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of MK-1293 to Lantus™ in participants with T1DM. The primary hypothesis is that after 24 weeks, the mean change in hemoglobin A1c (A1C) from baseline is non-inferior in participants treated with MK-1293 compared with participants treated with Lantus™.
Primary objective is to investigate the feasibility and stability of determining the endogenous glucose production during a hypoglycaemic clamp in type 1 diabetes mellitus subjects by a stable tracer to tracee ratio with an enrichment of 4% and a variation below +/-30%. Population: twenty type 1 diabetic subjects Study design: Single-center, open, non- randomized, pilot-study
The endothelium is the lining of the blood vessels that helps prevent damage to the vessels. The endothelium does not function as well as it should in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. This causes future diabetes complications. Adolescents with diabetes also have abnormalities of the cells that repair the endothelium. These abnormalities may be due to damage caused by intermittent hyperglycemia. This studied is designed to study whether low dose, combined Vitamin C and E supplementation improves endothelial function and repair in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
Protocol to screen potential subjects for islet transplantation
The goal of this proposed study is to explore the feasibility of using a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller versus an MPC (Model Predictive Control) controller algorithm in an artificial pancreas system, all other components and study design being equal. The study consists of an evaluation of either type of control algorithm as a part of the Artificial Pancreas (AP) device during two periods of 27.5-hour closed-loop control in a clinic environment (Sansum Diabetes Research Institute, Santa Barbara, CA) separated by a minimum of 5 days and a maximum of 2 weeks. The 27.5-hour period includes: 2 announced meals (dinner and breakfast of 65g and 50g CHO respectively) preceded with a dose of rapid-acting insulin equivalent to 100% bolus based on each subject's Insulin to Carbohydrate (I:C) ratio and 1 unannounced meal (lunch of 65g carbohydrates, same meal content as dinner); complete night from 12:00 am to 7:00 am. The goal is to demonstrate that the AP device is able to maintain the subject blood glucose within a safe range at all times.
The purpose of this study is to learn if giving multiple doses of a hormone called glucagon can cause a major decrease in liver glycogen (animal starch). Glucagon is currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration to be given as a large dose to treat severe low blood sugar. Our group is studying whether glucagon can be given in repeated small doses to prevent hypoglycemia.
The purpose of this study is to see if the Artificial Pancreas (AP) Platform can successfully control blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus on insulin pump therapy in a hospital setting. Investigators will also be studying to see if the heart rate informed Control To Range (hrCTR) can improve the performance of the system during and immediately after exercise.
Children/ young people with diabetes may be at a higher risk of acquiring certain infections. These infections include those caused by a bacterium called the pneumococcus which can cause pneumonia, meningitis and ear infections. In the UK older children with diabetes are given a vaccine against the pneumococcus bug called Pneumovax (or PPS23 for short). Although PPS23 causes a good immune response in children over 2 years of age it is not actually known how well PPS23 protects against infection in children of any age. In addition there is some data in adults and children that PPS23 may result in a reduced response to future doses of pneumococcal vaccines (hyporesponsiveness). Because of the lack of information on how well PPS23 protects and potential hyporesponsiveness the investigators would like to study the use of an alternative vaccine against pneumococcus called Prevenar13 (or pCV13). This vaccine is known to be safe and to work well in babies and young children and there have been no concerns about hyporesponsiveness. It has been approved for use in children up to 17 years of age but there is little information on the size and duration of immune response to PCV13 in children aged 6 years and older.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the performance of an Artificial Pancreas (AP) device using the Portable Artificial Pancreas System (pAPS) platform for subjects with type 1 diabetes using an insulin pump and rapid acting insulin. This proposed study is designed to compare closed-loop control with or without optimization of initialization parameters related to basal insulin infusion rates and insulin to carbohydrate (I:C) ratios for meals and snacks.
