Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Recruitment is conducted within a 'catchment' area that includes (a) the patient pools of the 15 TODAY clinical centers and (b) collaborating clinics and physicians who either refer subjects to a TODAY site or obtain IRB approval to conduct the protocol at their own locale.

Who may be able to join

  • Diabetes by ADA criteria (laboratory determinations of fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL, random glucose ≥ 200 mg/dL, or two-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) glucose ≥ 200 mg/dL) documented and confirmed in medical record or a laboratory determination of HbA1c ≥ 7%. For asymptomatic patients diagnosed with diabetes with a normal fasting glucose but an elevated two-hour glucose during an OGTT, the HbA1c must be ≥ 6%.
  • BMI ≥ 85th percentile documented at time of diagnosis or at screening.
  • Age < 18 at time of diagnosis.
  • Signed informed consent and assent forms as appropriate.

Who cannot join

  • Genetic syndrome or disorder known to affect glucose tolerance other than diabetes.
  • Patient on medication known to affect glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity or secretion within 60 days of the time of diagnosis. If diagnosis is confirmed after the patient has been off the medication for 60 days, the patient may be included. Exclusionary medications include but are not limited to
  • inhaled steroids at dose above 1000 mcg daily fluticasone equivalent,
  • oral glucocorticoids,
  • antirejection or chemotherapy agents (e.g., tacrolimus, L-asparaginase),
  • atypical antipsychotics.

About this study

Official title: Studies to Treat Or Prevent Pediatric Type 2 Diabetes (STOPP-T2D) Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) Genetics Study

The TODAY study group has prepared a protocol with the primary objective of collecting blood and phenotypic information to be used to explore relationships between candidate genes and type 2 diabetes (T2D), as well as obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular complications of insulin resistance. Participation in the genetics study includes a blood draw for analysis of diabetes type and DNA extraction, as well as collection of basic family and medical history. Appropriate informed consent and assent are obtained from all participants to extract DNA and send blood, genetic material, and medical history to the Central Repository of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The data are kept indefinitely by the Central Repository. The NIDDK will issue requests for proposals (RFP) throughout the scientific community for research that may help in the development of new diagnostic tests, new treatments, and new ways to prevent diabetes and other related comorbidities.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Blood draw to be processed and analyzed to yield genetic data.

    Blood is sent to the DNA processing center identified by NIDDK for processing and shipment to the NIDDK Repository.

    Measured: Blood is drawn at the single study visit.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Phenotype data.

    Demographic, medical history, and other data about participant and family, by self-report.

    Measured: Collected at single study visit.

  2. Laboratory values.

    Serum glucose, C-peptide, and pancreatic autoimmunity antibodies determined by study central laboratory.

    Measured: Single study visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes, run by National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) at 25 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Blood draw to be processed and analyzed to yield genetic data. (time frame: Blood is drawn at the single study visit.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00722397, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Aug 2021.
