Monocytes in type 1 diabetes and kidney disease study
This study looks at immune cells (monocytes) in people with type 1 diabetes, with or without early kidney problems. Researchers want to understand how these cells differ between groups. You may be able to join if you have type 1 diabetes and use an insulin pump or injections along with a continuous glucose monitor (CGM).
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06688331RecruitingPhase 2
Treating early stage 1 type 1 diabetes in children with cell therapy and antibody
This trial tests a new combination treatment for children who have been diagnosed with stage 1 type 1 diabetes, meaning they have some markers but do not yet need insulin. The treatment uses special immune cells (Treg cells) and an antibody (anti-CD20) to try to preserve the body's ability to make insulin.
BialystokAges 3–18 - NCT06676566Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up and early detection for kids at risk of type 1 diabetes
This study follows children who are at genetic risk for type 1 diabetes or have early immune signs (autoantibodies) but do not yet need insulin. It provides extra checkups and information to catch the disease early and help families understand their child's risk.
MalmöAges birth–18 years - NCT06670625Recruiting
Diet and activity counseling for infants at risk for type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether a program of diet and activity advice for families can lower the risk of type 1 diabetes in infants who have a higher genetic chance of developing it. It aims to find simple, everyday ways to help protect your child.
MalmöAges 3 months–4 months - NCT06657209RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing diabetes treatments for people with normal weight
This study tests two medications—pioglitazone (a pill) and tirzepatide (an injection)—in people with type 2 diabetes who have a normal body weight. It aims to find which treatment works better for this specific group.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 30–70 - NCT06627504Recruiting
Sleep study for teens with type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether getting more sleep helps improve metabolic health in teens with type 1 diabetes who are not getting enough sleep. If you are between 14 and 19, use an insulin pump, and typically sleep 7 hours or less on school nights, you may be eligible.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 14–19 - NCT06630585RecruitingPhase 3
Tirzepatide added to insulin pump for type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether adding a weekly injection of tirzepatide (a drug that helps with blood sugar and weight) can improve glucose control in adults with type 1 diabetes who already use an automated insulin pump. It may help you if your blood sugar is not at target despite using a pump.
Chêne-Bougeries, Canton of GenevaAges 18–65 - NCT06609356RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Reducing high insulin levels in type 1 diabetes
This study tests if adding a non-insulin medication can lower the amount of insulin needed while improving heart and metabolic health in people with type 1 diabetes. It may also help understand how this approach works in people with a genetic form of diabetes (GCK-MODY).
