Testing CNP-103 for newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes
This trial tests a new study drug called CNP-103 for people ages 12-35 who were recently diagnosed (within 6 months) with stage 3 type 1 diabetes. The goal is to see if the drug can help preserve the body's ability to make some insulin, potentially slowing the need for more insulin shots.

What taking part in a diabetes mellitus study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Are there diabetes mellitus clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 38 recruiting diabetes mellitus studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a diabetes mellitus study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
