About this study

Official title: Sequencing T-cell Receptor Repertoire of Auto-Antigen Specific T-cells in Type I Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to investigate CD8 + T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire differences between patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes or healthy controls.

Read the detailed description

Using a systems biology approach by combining high-throughput sequencing, cytometry, gene expression, transcriptome profiling, HLA typing, single cell analysis, and TCR affinity assays, the investigators will define a set of immune metrics for the prediction or early diagnosis of disease that is superior to the current examination of auto-antibodies, which is a fairly late stage in the disease development. This can also be used to guide therapy in advanced disease.

Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of T cell repertoire analysis to classify Type I Diabetes

    Measured: 3 month intervals for 2 years. Time to assess effectiveness is 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Seton Healthcare Family at 1 site 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 1 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 17 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Sensitivity and specificity of T cell repertoire analysis to classify Type I Diabetes (time frame: 3 month intervals for 2 years. Time to assess effectiveness is 1 year.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Apr 2018.
