T1DM - Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-parallel-controlled, multicenter study. The objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ivarmacitinib 8 mg administered for 52 weeks in preserving pancreatic β cell function in subjects with newly-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus. The study consists of a screening period (V1, up to 2 weeks), a 52-week double-blind treatment period (V2 to V14), and a 4-week safety follow-up period (V15).

This study is a Phase 1b/2a First-in-Human (FIH) clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy of multiple ascending doses of CNP-103. The approximately 393-days study consists of a Screening Period (28 days), Treatment Period (90 days), and Post-Dose Evaluations (275 days).

This study is First In Human study for Encapsulated Porcine Islet Cells for Xenotransplantation (OPF-310). The purpose of this study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of OPF-310 transplantation and to define the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in adult subjects with unstable Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and a level 3 (severe) hypoglycemic episode at least three times within the 1 year prior to enrollment despite treatment with a closed loop system (CLS) for at least 6 months.

This is a multi-centre, prospective, randomized, open-label controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a flexible digital insulin dose calculator in children under 12 years of age with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) managed with multiple daily injections (MDI). Participants will be stratified by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use and baseline HbA1c, and randomised to receive either standard care alone or standard care plus the insulin dose calculator tool for 6 months. The primary outcome is the change in HbA1c from baseline to 6 months. Secondary outcomes include CGM-derived glycaemic metrics (Time in Range, Time Below Range, Time Above Range, and Coefficient of Variation), total daily insulin dose (units/kg/day), healthcare provider contact frequency, and caregiver-reported usability and satisfaction. The study aims to determine whether the use of a structured digital decision-support tool improves glycaemic control and supports safer insulin dosing in paediatric patients with T1DM.

This research study is testing whether a weekly medication called tirzepatide can help adults with type 1 diabetes use their insulin pump more easily, specifically by reducing or eliminating the need to count carbohydrates at meals. People with type 1 diabetes must take insulin for life, and even with advanced insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors, many still struggle to keep blood sugar within the target range. One of the biggest challenges is carbohydrate counting, which requires estimating the amount of carbohydrates in every meal to give the correct insulin dose. Tirzepatide is a medication currently approved for type 2 diabetes and weight management. Early research suggests it may also help people with type 1 diabetes by lowering appetite, slowing digestion, reducing insulin needs, and smoothing after-meal blood sugar rises. This study will include 105 adults with type 1 diabetes at centers in Canada and Switzerland. Everyone will use the Tandem Control-IQ insulin pump with a Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitor. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: Tirzepatide group: Participants receive weekly tirzepatide injections. After the dose is gradually increased over 12 weeks, they will eventually try using their insulin pump without entering carbohydrate amounts at meals. Control group: Participants continue their usual therapy and keep counting carbohydrates for their mealtime insulin doses. The main goal of the study is to learn whether people taking tirzepatide can safely maintain good blood sugar control without counting carbs, compared with standard care. All participants will attend several clinic visits and share their glucose, insulin, and health data throughout the 32-week trial. Some centers will also conduct heart/fitness, or body-composition tests. As with any medication, tirzepatide may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or decreased appetite. Rare but serious risks like gallbladder disease or pancreatitis are also monitored. Pregnancy must be avoided during the trial. Overall, this study aims to understand whether adding tirzepatide to automated insulin delivery can simplify diabetes management, reduce burden, and maintain safe and effective glucose control for adults living with type 1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease characterized by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, leading to absolute insulin deficiency and lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin. The disease results from loss of immune tolerance, with autoreactive T-cell responses against beta-cell antigens, and is typically associated with islet autoantibodies and insulitis. Although insulin therapy remains the standard of care, it does not correct the underlying autoimmune process. Non-insulin therapeutic strategies for T1DM are mainly directed toward immunomodulation and beta-cell replacement or regeneration. Among immunomodulatory approaches, previous studies have primarily focused on regulation of effector T cells and B cells. Novel immune-based therapies are needed to explore whether modulation of pathogenic immune cell populations may alter disease activity and preserve residual beta-cell function. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, preliminary efficacy, and cellular kinetics of an allogeneic CD7-targeted CAR-T cell injection in participants with early stage T1DM. Participants will receive the investigational product and undergo regular assessments of safety, tolerability, treatment-emergent adverse events, cellular kinetics, glycemic parameters, exogenous insulin requirement, beta-cell function, and immunologic biomarkers. This study is expected to generate preliminary clinical evidence regarding the feasibility and potential therapeutic effects of CD7-targeted CAR-T cell therapy in T1DM.

Developing algorithms for Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems that alleviate the burden of meal announcements, culminating in the FLEX-AP system. This fully automated artificial pancreas system is designed to operate without meal or exercise announcements while allowing for optional user input. FLEX-APaims to achieve a balance between glycemic control and user quality of life by incorporating user preferences into its operation. The FLEX-AP system features a flexible control architecture tailored to handle unannounced meals and exercise. It also allows for optional meal announcements and offers guidance for mitigating hypoglycemia, such as counterregulatory actions like rescue carbohydrate intake for patients who prefer it. The proposed benefit of FLEX-AP is to improve glycemic control while respecting individual preferences, which sets it apart from existing AID systems.
