About this trial

In partnership with Helmsley Charitable Trust, the Sanford PLEDGE Study is a large-scale, observational, feasibility study of general population screening for T1D and celiac autoantibodies. Screening is incorporated into routine health care visits within an integrated health system.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Newborn Entry: Viable, term infants, defined as 36 weeks gestation by either dates or ultrasound who are born to pregnant women, 18 years or older, who are willing and able to provide informed consent (IC) prior to the onset of active labor. Who are born at a Sanford Health Hospital and plan to have routine well-child care at a Sanford Clinic

Pediatric Entry: Children less than 6 years of age who receive their routine care at a Sanford facility and whose parents are able to provide IC.

Adolescent Entry: Children, ages 9-16 years old, who receive their routine care at a Sanford facility and whose parents are able to provide IC.

Siblings of children known to have T1D-relevant antibodies; ages 6 to 17 years old who receive care at a Sanford clinic

Disqualifiers

Subject is in the opinion of the investigator, unable to comply with the requirements of the study protocol.

Children known to have T1D

Trial population

Children born at and/or followed at Sanford Health System facilities: 1. . 0-5 years of age; 2. . 9-16 years of age; 3. . Siblings of children known to have T1D-relevant antibodies, ages 6 to 17 years old.

  • Differential Gene Expression (DGE)

    Diagnostic test

    Opt-in: Differential Gene Expression from cord blood at birth and peripheral blood at 12 months of age

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Demonstrated feasibility of large-scale population screening, as evidenced by:

1. The percentage of parent(s) that viewed the MyChart study information who went on to complete the MyChart informed consent, HIPAA and questionnaires. 2. Of those who consented to be in the study, the percentage who went on to obtain the initial sample. 3. Of the total samples collected, percentage that were valid and results received. 4. The percentage of subjects who complete their \~60 month visit by their 6th birthday.

Time frame
By year 10 of the study

Secondary outcomes
